Corpse Recruiters are enemies found in Kingdom Rush: Vengeance, first encountered in Skullwreck Bay.
Overview[]
Dying is a privilege that most pirates have not earned. Most must work off their grog debt, and someone has to make sure that happens.
Corpse Recruiters are very deadly spectral enemies, having access to a high-damage ranged magical attack. Their most dangerous trick, however, is their ability to raise the dead. Fallen Scoundrels, Buccaneers, and Corsairs get turned into Risen Cutthroats, while fallen Boatswain arise as Hanged Captains. These necromancers often march right behind groups of human pirates, so if this ability is left unchecked, it's very likely for the player to get overwhelmed by a swarm of vengeful ghosts.
Strategy[]
Their melee damage is much lower than that of their ranged attack; additionally, they cannot revive other troops when engaged in combat. Make sure to stall them by using reinforcements, heroes, or carefully managing your barrack units in order to take them out quickly or separate them from the rest of their crew.
