Clubmen, in both games, are alike to Slingers and slingshots by that they are both in the stone age, they are the cheapest units you can buy, they are both the weakest units you can buy, and they are both the most basic units in any ages. In Age of War 1,Slingshot men see clubmen as their partners and trusty companions because they are a great combination together when in battle.

Slingers refers to Dino riders as 'A hot one'. They are very fast, as what would be expected when riding a velociraptor. Though Slingers think they are hot, they are still very deadly. They aren't a very good combiination when in battle because the Dino rider is an infantry unit and is too fast. Though they do have an extremely bad weakness over the Slingers when in packs. Though the Speedy Dino is exactly half of twice as fast as a slinger would be. In fact, Speedy Dino's speed is better than the Slinger's speed by 1.3 m/s. The Speedy Dino's health is bigger than the Slinger's by 75 Hit points. The Slinger's build time is faster than the Speedy Dino's by 1.0 seconds. Speedy Dinos can take 30-40 of damage to others. that means theirs is bigger than the Slingers damage by 15-10.

To Slingers, Assault Dinos are threatenly terrifying because to them at least, Assault Dinos are almost impossible to kill. judgeing by that they are armored type units, they have a Huge health, they are range and infantry units. it takes about 3-6 slingers to completely kill an Assault Dino. Assault Dinos to slingers can just simply step on their enemies and they win. When in battle, an Assault Dino is a great way to lead an army of slingers. Though they are both range units, Assault Dinos are more powerful then a slinger alone.
Spear sparton[]
Slingers don't really see something in Spear spartons. Probably they won't see them coming in the future. Though 1 Spear Sparton can kill a Slinger and it takes about 2 slingers to kill a Spear Sparton. They are both support type units, though they are from a different age. Most of the time, Slingers and Spear spartons don't really get along because they are advanced in their own ageous way.
