== Tactics and info ==
Wolf riders and raiders often die in large quantities if they are to attack straight away, as most Stronghold units do, but used wisely, they can take down lots of enemies without dying, especially the wolf raiders. A good tactic is to wait and then attack an enemy unit which already retaliated this turn, thus striking it twice with the Wolf Raiders and dealing great amounts of damage without losing any units.
 
Their only downside is that their dwelling can be upgraded only if the [[Goblin Barracks]] was upgraded already, which costs 5 wood {{w}} and 5 ore {{o}}, together with 1000 gold {{g}}, resources that should be used for something else.
 
== Heroes with a specialty ==
 
*{{H|Tyraxor|Barbarian}} has wolf riders as a [[Specialty#Creature_specialties|specialty]], which increases the attack and defense skills of any wolf riders or raiders for each level attained after 2nd  level and gives them a [[speed]] bonus of 1.

Wolf Riders and Raiders are level 2 creatures of Stronghold town. They are recruited from the Wolf Pen.

"Goblins and hobgoblins mounted on wolfback are far more effective than their ground-pounding counterparts. The raider delivers two blows with each attack." RoE manual

Tactics and info

Wolf riders and raiders often die in large quantities if they are to attack straight away, as most Stronghold units do, but used wisely, they can take down lots of enemies without dying, especially the wolf raiders. A good tactic is to wait and then attack an enemy unit which already retaliated this turn, thus striking it twice with the Wolf Raiders and dealing great amounts of damage without losing any units.

Their only downside is that their dwelling can be upgraded only if the Goblin Barracks was upgraded already, which costs 5 wood Wood and 5 ore Ore, together with 1000 gold Gold, resources that should be used for something else.

  • TyraxorTyraxorTyraxor Tyraxor the Barbarian has wolf riders as a specialty, which increases the attack and defense skills of any wolf riders or raiders for each level attained after 2nd level and gives them a speed bonus of 1.
