Can you defend the Wonder against increasingly challenging waves using only your army of Mangudai? The setup is simple: you have a Wonder to defend, Mangudai, and access to techs. Strategize how you will spend your resources and use the terrain to your advantage. Take on waves of Teutonic Knights, Throwing Axemen, Onagers, tanky Saboteurs — and a very special campaign hero unit if you can make it to the final wave! Mangudai Madness is supported with a leaderboard. Challenge your friends and put those micro skills to the test! [h2]NEW!
