Battle Strategy

Simple change of habits and adapt to a different strategy for battleing other

players in KoC in order to be more efficient and Safe.

In general when we Attack or Defend we do so from Peace time TR. This is

the most convieniant for us and sometimes an Attack happens suddenly.

But what if you are ready to battle anyway? Or looking for a fight?

Again most players will start fighting from a Peace Time TR (Habit) but what

if you start from a Battle Preset? Instead of Using your Peace Time TR you

will create a Preset from where you send Attacks and Switch to when you

are being ( counter attacked).

The logic behind this is Simple and for the following reasons.

1) Confusion for Enemy

2) In case you switch to late on Defend or Attack you were already

on a battle Preset (and not on Peace Time / Troop Training TR).

3) You increase your chance or chances of winning.

4) You still benefit from the Sacrifice but better on a Battle Preset

then Peace Time TR.

5) In case the game shows you that you have changed TR and when

you see report.. it didn’t.. ( server lag) but now you are on a Battle

Preset.

Creating a Battle Preset to Defend with or Attack with.

The only Restriction you may encounter is Marchsize & MarchSpeed.

Marchsize is Capped at 150%

MarchSpeed is Capped at 500%

But this you can solve in your Preset by certain Cards.

This is a great Card for a Peace Time TR but NOT for a Battle Preset.

These are great Alternatives & with Battle Stats.

You can “Pair’ the Noble Stag & Father Winter together for MarchSize &

Marchspeed. The Father Winter when Upgraded to higher levels will have

enough Marchspeed with just 1 line. The Cap is 500% Remember?

429% on level 23 is really close 500% and leaves the Jewel position open to

other (needed) Battle stats or even Marchsize Jewel!

Then 1 Card like Father Winter will / could cover ALL your MarchSpeed

and Size. Leaving 11 slots in your TR for the Remaining Battle Cards.

March Size March Speed

With MarchSize & MarchSpeed Covered you can now Send at full

MarchSpeed for Attack waves BUT also Transport / Re-assign / Reinforce

etc and use MarchSize for the maximum possible troops able to send from a

RP.

You have now the option to Fill in the other 10 or 11 other Cards to

what you need in your TR.

The Guide will continue with the Preset I chose to Defend and Attack from.

A surprise Attack from a Druid City came in ( Hidden Paths) just before

another Incoming March.

And eventhough I changed to a different Preset for Defending due to server

lag, the preset NEVER changed. But I was still on this TR.. what happened?

Had I been on a Peace TR the outcome could / would have been different.

Now the damage has been limited.

Conclusion:

Lately many last second TR changes Fail.

This is either due to Serverlag or not refreshing enough your browser.

Either way it is annoying and can lead to losses.

In Attacking & Defending.

Therefore starting from a Battle Preset instead of a Peace time can /could

win the battle.

If you are attacking from a Defense/Attack debuff Preset with mixed

troops and the Attack fails due to a Preset change, being on a

Defense/Attack debuff Preset could still win the battle.

If you are Defending and the Preset change fails, you still have the

benefit of the Sacrificed troops and a battle preset. Giving you more

change to survive the battle.

This is just an example Preset, and you can adjust / use any preset you

tweak to your liking.

It just gives you more chances in Attacking & Defending then a Peace Time

Tr could give you.

It just requires a small change in your habits & mindset.

But it could be perfect for people that scout a lot and attract hostile attention,

or people that Attack Alliances via the PB+ function with cav. ( you do not

have to change TR and are ready for incoming Attacks)

Either way, it’s good Strategy.

Sharing is knowledge, and a lot of players are not sharing. Yes, it gives you and edge, or advantage, but

it leaves also many people clueless. The objective of these tutorials, is to teach, learn, educate players so ALL players have

a better under understanding of the game. The more players participate, the better the overall experience is for all players.

More attacking and defending means “lively” domains full of activity.
