Invasion is a war game, we won't know when we're going to be attacked. I'm sure you don't want your time and effort go to waste. I'm going to share you a few tips based from my experience, I hope it will help you all
Let's get started!
How to make your troops untouchable
1. Go to nearest tile before his plane is landing on your base
Sometimes, invasion is like 'play catch' game and you can always play with your attacker, make him like :
He's scouting you, hell you look yummy. Then he will come in like 5 minutes, on minus 2min you going encamp or going to resource tile, he will get an empty base and cry. He comes back to his base, recall your troops, he's coming at you again, encamp / going to rss tile again. Catch me if you can brah!
However this trick won't work if he's nearby, like a really really beside you, since you have to play fast and should move out real soon before getting hit.
2. The smart fake rally!
What is a rally? Rally is joined attack, you can set from 5 mins to 8 hours before engaging and the best part is YOUR TROOPS CAN'T BE TOUCHED IN THE PROCESS! Hands down to the power of rally!
To do so, you can pick your rally base target, click on the rally button, set the rally for 8hrs, put in all of your troops, and that's it! You gain 8hrs + march time, troops immunity. How cool is that! As soon as you're back online, you can cancel the rally if you want.
Remember to always do fake rally before going offline ALL THE TIME and most importantly during PvP event if you're not participating, or during NaP off time. This is war game, I remind you. Remember, ALL THE TIME.
Just be selective on picking who's going to be your rally target, we don't want to piss the wrong guy, do we? And of course you don't want to end in finished rally to someone whose power is much fatter than yours, you'll end losing. Find some newbs in unknown guild faraway from your base, mark his coords so you can set him up whenever you need. If you're not sure, I've already set up someone to be your daily fake rally target. Find [x.x]HIT ME in the hive. Play this guy base, he won't get mad.
The reason why would you want to play smart defense
You do not want to lose any troops
Producing troops needs a lot of time, effort, and of course a lot of resources. You don't want your effort go to waste, do you?
F.A.Q :
1. Why sometimes during defend, I lose units, and sometimes I can repair them?
This is where Garage play a big part. When you're attacked, if your unit lost number is less than maximum Garage capacity, you will not lose any of your units! It can be repaired in your garage. Repair units vs start from scratch. So get your garage upgraded! Please remember, garage will only work in defensive mode, you can not repair units from attacking someone. ever!
2. Why do you want him to hit an empty base?
First, again your troops will be safe. And if your resources is below storage capacity, he will only get a little amount of it vs lose your troops.
