Battle Outcomes

Strategic Considerations

Before Attacking

1. Scout the target - Check enemy defenses in the district
2. Assess value - Is the resource gain worth the unit risk?
3. Check attack limit - Do you have attacks remaining for this player?

During Attack

• Battles consist of 11 waves
• Monitor battle progress if watching live
• Your units fight automatically based on composition

After Attack

• Surviving units return with stolen resources
• Wait for cooldown before attacking same target again
• Review battle report to improve future attacks
