There are uses for a different troop type that is the same as an agima.

If you use an intelligent force disposition - small numbers of many valuable troops, and larger numbers of disposable troops - they have more value than a normal agima.

The true value will be where they stand on the champion bonus.

Do they receive a bonus before normal agima?

This would be amazing if they do.

Yes, definitely, especially for lower level players. Would love to have just 20 or so of them. Not just for the colours. As you say, they do have additional value, even if exact same stats and champion bonus.

A link please, to explain VIP status. Thank you.

Maybe (may not) you can find some answers here, Administrator answered on some questions https://plarium.com/forum/en/stormfall-age-of-war/archive/28120_vip-club/

thank you.

Hello Ike: Beyond the information that you can get the link sent, I comment that the prerogatives required to be a VIP player have not been specified by Plarium. It is a characteristic that the company has granted to certain players under parameters that we do not know. From what is known, these players spend a lot of time in the game and have reached a high position in rankings and tournaments ... but there are also exceptions to this. Have a nice game!

As of today, 9 Jan 2020  I CAN CONFIRM  the existence of the ELITE (BLUE COLOR) Agema Horseman.  I had reinforcement in a friend city. It was attacked by Scootnuts - Red Warrior -1765/1275 of the coalition Red Empire. He has 202 ELITE (BLUE COLOR) Agema Horseman.  YES, I said BLUE COLOR.  This MAKE him a VIP buyer player.

NOW for the details.

In this attack the order is : Imperial Horseman , Veteran Agema, Agema Horseman, Megarian. *** ELITE (BLUE COLOR) Agema Horseman ***, Veteran Carthaginian Horseman, Carthaginian Horseman, Charioteer, Veteran Cavalry, Macedonian Cavalry.

The following Champion units were present in this attack;  Mycenaean Charioteer, Minotaur, Primus Ordinis, and Cataphract.  The Champion units DO NOT list the ELITE Agema Horseman as a support unit.  There was not enough champion units to show if this is possible.
