Command An Army Update 3: Mongol Update, Battle Pass and Laestrygonian

What is in the Command An Army Mongol update (Update 3)?

Update 3 went live on October 3, 2026, and it is the biggest content drop since launch: the first 5-star unit, a themed Battle Pass, two new evolution endpoints, and three new progression systems. The official Roblox experience now brands the game with a Mongols prefix and lists the update under “new content” — that much is first-party. Everything below about unit names, star levels, rates and systems comes from All Things How’s October 4 report of the patch notes that were posted in the game Discord on October 3.

Per that report, Update 3 adds:

• Laestrygonian — the first 5-star unit in the game, outside the Battle Pass.
• Myrmidon — a new 4-star unit, also outside the Battle Pass.
• Mongol Battle Pass — three units: Nökör (3★), Bataar (3★) and Khorchin (4★).
• Two evolutions — Mace → Morningstar (4★) and Pikeman → Phalangite (3★).
• Three systems — a per-unit Skill Tree, Auto Delete, and an AFK Server.
• A traits pass — All Things How notes every new trait carries both a buff and a nerf, and that players are split on the result.

What is the Laestrygonian and why is it the first 5-star unit?

Every documented unit before Update 3 topped out at 4 stars, from Samurai and Lancer down to the 1-star starters. The Laestrygonian breaks that ceiling as the first 5-star unit, and All Things How’s report of the summon screen puts its pull rate at 0.01% — an order of magnitude beyond anything the Standard Banner reporting from September described. It is obtained outside the Battle Pass, which makes it a banner-side chase rather than a progression reward.

That rarity number comes from one dated report of the summon screen, not from an official rates table. No official source publishes pull probabilities, so treat 0.01% as reported, not guaranteed.

What does the Mongol Battle Pass include?

The Battle Pass route reported on October 4 carries three units — Nökör and Bataar at 3 stars, Khorchin at 4 stars — unlocked through Battle Pass progression instead of banner pulls. That matches the developer framing recorded before Update 3 shipped, when the Update 2 overview noted that Mongol content was tied to a future Battle Pass described as free and progressed through quests.

What evolutions did Update 3 add?

Update 3 extends two evolution lines:

• Mace → Morningstar (4★) — Morningstar is the evolved form of Mace, the 3-star S-tier frontline unit, not a separate banner pull.
• Pikeman → Phalangite (3★) — Phalangite extends the Spearman line, which previously ended at Pikeman.

Both endpoints change how the evolution guide ranks its routes: Mace was previously an evolution dead end, and the spear line now runs Spearman → Pikeman → Phalangite. Check the live client before committing Mastery time, because the reported star levels have no official stat card behind them.

What are Skill Tree, Auto Delete and the AFK Server?

The three systems reported in the October 4 article:

Skill Crystals, the currency behind the Skill Tree, are reported to come from quests, daily rewards and ranked wins — and four of the October codes pay them directly. That makes the codes batch the fastest way to try the new system before grinding ranked.

Which codes came with Update 3?

The October 3 update shipped a code batch. Four of them — LAESTRYGONIAN, UPDATE3, MONGOLS and SKILLTREE — are confirmed by both Radio Times and All Things How with identical rewards, and Radio Times adds GUILDFIX (5,000 Gems plus 10 Skill Crystals), OCTOBER3 and SATURDAY. The full list with rewards and sources lives on the codes page; four September codes moved to its expired table in the same check.

What comes after Update 3?

The official Roblox experience, checked October 7, 2026, lists an event slot for Saturday, October 10, 2026, and shows the next update as TBD. The Mongol update has already rebranded the experience page itself, so follow the official page and the game’s Discord channels for the next drop. This page records the October 3 report and the October 7 first-party check; it will be updated when the next patch lands.
