Mastering the Art of War:

The event begins with helpful tutorials. Here's a simplified breakdown:

Before each wargame, select Combat Units (your troops) and Stratagems (buffs). Units have various types (AoE, Flying, Ranged, Melee) with strengths and weaknesses (e.g., Melee counters Ranged).

Study your opponent's lineup and adjust yours (Reinforcement Points are consumed for changes). Key unit roles include:

  • Melee: High damage absorption, slow speed.
  • Ranged: Long-range attacks, low health.
  • AoE DMG: Damages groups of units.
  • Flying: Evades ground attacks, immune to specific damage types.

Upgrade units for increased effectiveness (repeat units for leveling). Refresh options for better choices. Elemental Reactions play a crucial role – strategize accordingly!
