Gameplay Overview:

The event features intuitive tutorials to guide you through the mechanics. Here's the key:

Before each wargame, strategically select Combat Units (your troops) and Stratagems (buffs). Units have diverse types (AoE Damage, Flying, Ranged, Melee), each with strengths and weaknesses. For instance, Melee units excel against Ranged units.

Analyze your opponent's lineup and adjust your units using the bottom-right effectiveness diagram. Remember, changing your lineup costs Reinforcement Points, so plan carefully.

Unit Types Explained:

  • Melee Units: High damage absorption, low speed.
  • Ranged Units: Long-range attacks, low health.
  • AoE DMG Units: Damage multiple units simultaneously.
  • Flying Units: Evade ground attacks, immune to specific damage types.

Upgrade units to boost their effectiveness by selecting the same unit for subsequent rounds. Refresh your units and stratagems for optimal strategies. Elemental Reactions play a crucial role, so leverage them effectively.

Even losses earn you Wargame Medals, which accumulate towards rewards. Winning yields more medals, but consistent participation ensures you still reap the rewards.
