Armies are little armadillo enemies in Donkey Kong Country, Donkey Kong Land and Donkey Kong Jungle Beat. They attack by rolling into a ball and careening toward the Kongs, but they can be easily defeated by a jump. Army Dillo from Donkey Kong 64 was a giant Army, although the enemy species did not appear in the game.

An Army can be seen near the end of the trailer for the now apparently cancelled game, Donkey Kong Racing. It is possible that an Army could have been one of the game's rideable creatures as other enemy species, such as Zingers were seen to be rideable.

Other Appearances

An Army, purple in color, appears in the Club Nintendo comic "Donkey Kong Country". It is the first enemy in this comic to attack Donkey and Diddy Kong. Diddy defeats it by simply jumping on. Like every enemy in the comic, the Army is able to speak.

Armies also make several small appearances as enemies in the Game Boy Color game Conker's Pocket Tales.
