Strategy[]
The Servant has a weak attack, but decent armor, and has the ability to heal other units. It heals naval units faster than it heals land units. Since they are healers they should not be used in combat. They do little damage and will go down quickly. They are the earliest naval myth unit with offensive capacities (excluding the Carnivora, which is immobile), which can give them some surprise potential in the Classical Age, at least until Heroic Fleet is researched (which most players will prioritize until the Heroic Age).
Their ability to heal ships is critical in maintaining a navy, as it allows ships to be healed out at sea instead of returning to shore to be healed by a land healer such as a Priest.
While they can heal land units near the shore in a pinch, the Caladria is far more effective and less expensive to use for a mixed unit force. They even move faster and cannot be attacked by some naval units, though they also do not have as many hit points or and little ability to defend themselves, and can go down pretty quickly against archer ships.
