Griffins and Royal Griffins are the level 3 creatures of Castle. They can be recruited from Griffin Towers. Griffins roost in special towers built for them on the castle grounds. Basic griffins are able to retaliate twice per combat round while royal griffins have unlimited number of retaliations.
Griffins are fast flying unit with relatively high health, an interesting special ability, and quite a good growth rate if you build the Griffin Bastion. However, they have rather low damage. Royal griffins make decent siege attacker due their unlimited retaliations, which allows them to fly over the walls and give hits in the counter attacks.
Heroes with a specialty
- Edric the Knight has griffins as a specialty, which increases the attack and defense skills of any griffins for each level attained after 3rd level, and gives them a speed bonus of 1.
