Центурион — командир Rise of Kingdoms

The Centurion is an advanced commander in Rise of Kingdoms (specializing in “Recruitment” and “Leadership”). A Roman legion officer assigned to a supply train—the rookie’s first gatherer: a scroll of instructions in his hand, an axe on his back, and a full supply train on his schedule.

Historical Background

A Centurion is the commander of a century in a Roman legion, the backbone of the Roman army. In the game, he is portrayed as a supply officer: responsible for delivering supplies to the legions.

Player Reviews

Players say: Centurion is the “first long-haul driver.” Until Constantius appears, he handles everything on his own. They advise new players not to invest anything in him except for leveling him up.

Tips

Centurion is a temporary solution for 2–3 days until elite collectors become available. Keep him at collection points near the city: short trips help mask his weak buffs.
