Empires and Allies Experimental Units - Complete Guide

Dr. Seabolt has been hard at work! Empires and Allies got a whole bunch of new Experimental Units rolling out today!  Here's one of these items; the Experimental Units.


What are Experimental Units?


Experimental Units are are a new type of unit, outside of the usual "Rock/Paper/Scissors" combat system. They use a rare new power source called "Element Z" to power dramatic new abilities!


How do I build them?


Experimental units are built in Experimental buildings!

So far, only the Experimental Barracks and Experimental Dock are available, which build Land and Naval units respectively. In the new buildings, Experimental Units are built just like normal units.
The Experimental Dock unlocks at level 20.


What do I need to do to use them?


Experimental Units are powered by Element Z.

Element Z is a rare new power source discovered by Dr. Seabolt! With it, our units can do things that we never thought possible.


The Element Z bar appears in combat. You will start automatically with a full Element Z bar, but you'll have to refill it yourself. Element Z can be purchased for EP or gifted by your neighbors, so be sure to be generous!
