Everything worth knowing, at a glance.
Short, practical tips you can use right away. Every section links to a full guide when you want the details.
Routine quotidiana
Full guideDieci minuti al giorno, fatti con costanza, battono le sessioni lunghe. I tick si resettano con il giorno di gioco (00:00 UTC).
TL;DR Raccogli tutto ciò che è gratis, tieni tutte le code attive, aiuta l'alleanza e spendi la stamina prima che raggiunga il massimo.

Furnace e città
Full guideIl Furnace sblocca quasi tutto: livelli degli edifici, tier di truppe e nuove funzioni.
TL;DR Porti avanti prima il Furnace. Costruisci solo i prerequisiti richiesti dal suo prossimo livello, più la Research Center e i campi truppe.
In sintesi
- Furnace prima. Controlla cosa richiede il suo prossimo livello e costruisci quello.
- Poi la Research Center e i tuoi campi truppe.
- Usa la seconda coda per prerequisiti, campi e Ambasciata.
- Dopo il Furnace 30, prendono il sopravvento i Fire Crystals: accumula in anticipo dagli eventi.

Heroes
Full guideGold-tier (Mythic) heroes release in generations as your state ages. Each generation adds an Infantry, Lancer and Marksman hero.
TL;DR Pick one main hero per troop type and invest deeply. Spreading shards across many heroes is the most common early mistake.
Core rules
- One main Mythic per troop type: Infantry Lancer Marksman.
- Build Jeronimo early. He’s the usual rally captain for years.
- Joining a rally? Put Jessie (or Jasser) in the first slot.
- Save shards when a new generation is close.

Troops & Formations
Full guideInfantry stand in front, Lancers in the middle, Marksmen in the back.
TL;DR Infantry beats Lancers, Lancers beat Marksmen, Marksmen beat Infantry. A 50/20/30 mix is the usual PvP starting point; adjust for the event.

Ricerca
Full guideTre alberi principali: Growth, Economy e Battle.
TL;DR Inizio: Growth (velocità di costruzione e ricerca). Aggiungi Economy quando le risorse sono il collo di bottiglia, e spingi Battle quando PvP e rally contano.
In sintesi
- Inizio: velocità di costruzione e ricerca in Growth.
- Economy quando le risorse ti frenano; Battle quando combatti.
- Non lasciare mai la coda ferma; risparmia i boost di ricerca per i giorni di evento.

Chief Gear, Charms & Pets
Full guideLong-term stat systems that separate whales from everyone else, but F2P can build them too.
TL;DR Raise Chief Gear evenly: set bonuses need 3 or 6 pieces of the same quality. Spread charms evenly. Pick pets for the skill you’ll use most.
At a glance
- Chief Gear (Furnace 22): raise pieces evenly for the 3- and 6-piece set bonuses.
- Charms (Furnace 25): spread upgrades evenly. Early levels are cheap.
- Pets (Furnace 18): level one at a time, picked for the skill you use most.

Events
Full guideEvents are where most rewards come from. Know which ones to save for, and which ones stack.
TL;DR Stack effort: use speedups and resources only when two events score the same action at once.
Growth events
| Event | When | Tip |
|---|---|---|
| SvS | ~4 weeks | Save speedups for prep days; shield on battle day. |
| King of Icefield | ~2 weeks after SvS | Only the day’s theme scores. Opens after your first SvS. |
| Hall of Chiefs | Young states | One theme per day; later replaced by King of Icefield. |

Alliance Battles
Full guideRecurring alliance events. Most are about coordination and attendance more than raw power. Each one has its own in-depth page.
TL;DR Register on time, show up, follow your rally leads, and remember that Foundry Battle troops recover afterwards, so fight hard there.
Must-knows
| Event | When | Remember |
|---|---|---|
| Bear Hunt | About every 2 days | Jessie in slot 1, Marksman-heavy, join every rally. |
| Crazy Joe | Weekly | Stay online; waves 10 & 20 hit the HQ. |
| Foundry Battle | About every 2 weeks | Take and hold the Imperial Foundry. Troops recover after. |
| Alliance Championship | Weekly (sign-up Mon–Wed) | Auto-battle. Register your strongest march. |

| Canyon Clash | Monthly (Thursday) | Fuel is everything. Don’t waste it. |
| Sunfire Castle | During SvS | Hold 2.5 hours straight to win; contest the turrets. |
