How to Heal Wounded Soldiers in Foundation

So, your soldiers went out, bravely fought… and came back wounded for what feels like forever. Now you’re stuck wondering if they’ll ever heal, or if your military is permanently in shambles. Good news! They do heal—but there are ways to speed up the process so you’re not stuck waiting for ages.

Option 1: Time Heals All Wounds

Soldiers heal on their own over time, but it’s slow. If you don’t do anything extra, expect them to be out of action for weeks (at least 3-6).

Option 2: Assign a Healing-Focused Bailiff

Certain Bailiffs increase healing speed for your troops.

  • If you have a Bailiff with a healing buff, assign them to help speed things up.

  • Combined with dummies and the Garden Masterpiece, this makes a huge difference.

Option 3: Build the Garden Masterpiece

Once unlocked, the Garden Masterpiece reduces healing time—but no one’s quite sure by how much it means when it says “by two”. Regardless, if you’re serious about military power, build it as soon as possible.

Tip: Don’t Send Wounded Soldiers Back Into Battle

This might seem obvious, but if you send wounded soldiers on another mission, they’ll just get more wounded—or worse, die. Keep them at home until they fully heal, or you’ll never have a strong army.

Final Blurb

Healing soldiers in Foundation isn’t instant, but with enough training dummies, the Garden Masterpiece, and the right Bailiff, you can speed up the process significantly. If you do nothing, be prepared for long recovery times—and a lot of waiting.
