Warcraft 2: Tides of Darkness Hints

Peon

  • Peons are Orcs that are too pitiful to become Grunts, but they are really the backbone of your army.  Use them to build buildings, mine gold, harvest lumber, repair buildings and even attack (although they are pitifully weak). Just one Peon can build an entire army in just a short time.  Only use Peons to attack in an extreme emergency.  2 hits will kill them, and they would never last against a real fighter.  If you are ever under attack, make sure you get get one Peon away safely, because he alone can rebuild your whole empire.
