Hello lords, I am your old friend Qitan Editor~ Today I bring you a practical guide for "Clash of Kings: Western Continent". Friends who are new to the game, don't miss it! This SLG war game is really charming. You can make allies and fight together, and you can also experience the fun of strategizing. However, resources are tight in the novice stage and it is easy to get beaten, so today I specially compiled a set of guides to open up wasteland to help you avoid detours!
Three steps to start and build the city steadily🏰
When you first enter the game, don't be in a hurry to fight. First, follow the mission guidance to upgrade the main city to level 5. The early missions provide abundant resources and acceleration props, and you can quickly unlock key buildings by following along. Focus on upgrading the order hall, barracks and warehouses. The order hall determines the number of your building queues, the barracks affect the efficiency of soldier recruitment, and the warehouse can protect resources from being robbed too much. In addition, remember to join an active alliance as soon as possible. Alliance technology and alliance support can speed up your initial development a lot, and it will be safer when you encounter a big boss!
Resource Management: Don't let gold coins and wood get stuck💰
In the western continent, resources are the lifeblood, especially wood and food. In the early stage, it is recommended to mainly upgrade resource fields, upgrade farmland and lumberyards to the same level as the main city, and then use mines to replenish gold coins. For gathering heroes, priority should be given to cultivating one with gathering skills, such as [Miner Jack], which can increase the gathering speed a lot. Don't forget to collect resource points on the wild map every day, especially high-level resource fields. The income is much higher than that produced at home. In addition, the warehouse capacity must keep up, otherwise it will be distressing if others take over everything.
Army Recruitment: Don't rush troops blindly, elite troops are the way to go⚔️
A mistake that novices often make is to try their best to build low-level soldiers. As a result, their combat power is inflated and they consume resources. In the early stage, it is recommended to focus on raising one type of military unit, such as cavalry or spearmen, and concentrate resources to upgrade it to a high level. You can use low-level soldiers to farm monsters in the wild and level up, but you must send high-level soldiers to fights. In addition, the matching of heroes is also crucial. The auxiliary hero brings [Lillian] to increase defense, and the output hero brings [Black Knight] for explosive power. Remember to send heroes to the training ground every day to upgrade their skills. The higher the skill level, the more combat power will be doubled!
Offensive and defensive strategies: There are routines for sneak attacks, and defense relies on traps🛡️
When you want to attack someone, scout first! See clearly the opponent's troop deployment and resource quantity, and prioritize those players with fewer troops and more resources. If you're not sure you can beat it, go fight monsters to practice. In terms of defense, hospital and trap buildings are very important. The capacity of the hospital determines how many wounded soldiers you can treat, and how many rounds the trap can hold the enemy back. In addition, there are bonuses near the alliance flag. Move the main city to the vicinity of allies and gather together for defense. Enemies will naturally run away when they see the crowd.
Finally, I would like to say that although this game is SLG, the later stages of the game are more about strategy and diplomacy. I hope this little guide can help you get a foothold quickly. See you in the Western Continent! 👋 If you have any questions, please leave them in the comment area and I will try my best to reply to you~
