Wanderburg Modules Guide
Every module confirmed in Wanderburg, what it does, where it mounts and how patches have changed it.
Modules are the weapon and utility blocks you mount on your castle. They fire toward the face they are attached to, which makes castle layout a real strategic choice: front modules push, side modules rake, rear modules punish pursuit.
Core module types (official description)
The official store description confirms cannons, arcane mage towers, barracks and explosive modules as the core arsenal. Verified module names and their current behaviour are listed below when a source is available.
| Module family | Confirmed role | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Cannons | Direct damage; front and side mounts | Official store description |
| Arcane mage towers | Magic damage; arc towers | Official store description |
| Barracks | Spawn crew that fights or supports | Official store description + patch notes |
| Explosive modules | Mortars / area damage | Official store description |
| Ram | Collision-based damage on the front | Official patch notes (0.9.x) |
| Mines | Rear defensive area denial | Community reports — verify current build |
Module names, exact stats and costs are not always officially published, so this table stays at the level of confirmed fact. Rows sourced from community reports are labelled — do not treat them as official.
How modules change with patches
- Patch 0.9.7 changed the Front Barrack damage — module-specific damage is not fixed; it moves between patches.
- Patch 0.9.6 adjusted weapon balance and early-game healing items, which shifted recommended early modules.
- The current verified build for this page is 0.9.8; see Updates for the change log.
