Overview Table
These upgrades strengthen a Giant's individual abilities and apply to an ability you choose: area of effect, duration, range and projectiles, where relevant. The main way to earn augment points is to defeat enemy camps. By default an augment costs 1 point, but the cost rises if you apply several augments to one ability, or the same augment to several abilities.

March of Giants has a single progression resource, called Merits. Every destroyed unit and Giant drops Merits; you get more for landing the killing blow and for bounties on certain Giants. Destroying map objectives also grants Merits. Merits buy upgrades from the War-Shell menu at the Arsenal or in upgrade camps.

Special orders from your monarch that grant extra Merits when you land the killing blow on units, or assist in their destruction by an ally. Royal orders are issued regularly as new units enter the battlefield. Hover your Giant's Merit gauge to see how many you hold. Watch the game's demo Close the demo Learn more : Royal Orders
The mobile combat station each Giant carries. It can be strengthened at your Arsenal by buying upgrades with the Merits you earn. Upgrades raise your base stats, strengthen your abilities and grant passive effects to counter enemy strategies. War-Shell upgrades are your main means of progression.
