How to Get Khorchin in Command An Army — Battle Pass Horse Archer

The Khorchin is a 4-star horse archer from Command An Army’s Mongol update (early October 2026). It’s fast and hard to pin down, but it hits weakly and Fire Archers outrange it. Short answer: fun, but not worth chasing.

How do I get the Khorchin?

Through the Mongol battle pass that came with the Mongol update. It’s the pass’s 4-star reward, next to Nökör and Bataar. The creator we sourced this from skipped ahead with Robux, so we can’t tell you how long the free grind takes.

What does the Khorchin do?

It’s a mounted archer squad. It can shoot from range, then run away when enemies come close. Normal archers can’t do that.

The takeaway: the damage per second looks fine for a low level, but you get fewer riders and less range than Fire Archers.

One tester who maxed every new unit goes further. He says it has the lowest damage and lowest HP in the game.

What’s it good at?

Staying alive. In one creator’s test, enemies charged his Khorchins and only three died. He says a line of normal archers would have lost about half.

It also works best on big open maps. Plains and the new mountain map give it room to run circles around slow enemies.

What’s bad about it?

• Fire Archers beat it. They outrange it and they’re one of the most used units right now. One creator said the Khorchin would be much better if Fire Archers weren’t so strong.
• Shield meta. Shield units sit on a point and soak arrows. A Khorchin barely hurts them.
• Bad on tight maps. On Castle the horses get stuck on everything. One creator says it’s the worst map for them, especially on defense.
• It takes micro. You have to keep moving it. Leave it alone and it does very little.

Where does it rank?

One creator puts it at B tier: “above average, but still a bit mediocre”. Another puts it at low A: “a really annoying fly”, but nothing crazy. The B-tier creator thinks it needs a buff, or Fire Archers need a nerf.

Our read: if you already have Fire Archers, stick with them. Don’t grind the battle pass just for the Khorchin.

It came out with the 5-star Laestrygonian and the Myrmidon. For the wider meta, see the best units tier list.
