      Home.
      Home is an easy way to access and view almost anything you need to see.

      Your money, your clan, your troops, your number of allies, your nobility, your number of buildings, help section, PM, forums, your war or eb, the game leaders, send feedback to devs, and view you profile. This screen does not do much in it's self, but it is a portal to go almost anywhere in the game.

    • Clan
      [​IMG]
      Clans are an important part of the KaW community. Forming a clan, forms friends, makes enemies, and gives you a purpose in KaW.

      Part of a clan is epic battles.
      [​IMG]
      Epic battles:
      A certain Epic battle has an objective that to win and get part of the awards must be completed. When choosing an epic battle to play, you decide a monster to face, choose an unlocked battle and go!

      Each battle is unique with unique objectives, and stories behind them. When doing a new epic battle, you have NO idea what's coming.

      How to get your worth out of the epic battles:
      Epic battles give you money at the end compared to how well you do in the battle, if you win. And the monsters give you ally bonus when hit. Although if you assassinate you get a much bigger prize at the end, if you defeat the objectives.

      ____________________________________
      The other team effort that is not epic battles is war.

      System Wars.
      There are three kinds of system wars that I have seen used:
      Friendly war. One of the most common among small clans that want a war in there history and they want to win it. Friendly wars the rules are no mercs, no stripping. Locked roster is not necessary.

      Strip wars.
      These can be common when to clans HATE each other. Often larger clans challenge each other to these. No rules.

      Flexible wars.
      I say that for lack of a better name. No rules but kindness is recommended. Often small to medium clans participate in such wars. They basically follow the System to the letter. No agreements or prior talk to the war, even wars that no word is spoken from one clan to the other, throughout the war.

      How to fight in a war.
      Allies will be still be useful in anything but a strip war. Plunder bonus is a great role when winning a war. But the second (after taking money from them) is stopping the enemies from taking money from you. That's where self-DTW comes in.

      There are twos ways to self-DTW
      Have no money
      Have less than 20% troops

      When they can't take money from you, you can't lose the war.

      That is your clan
    • Top Bar
      [​IMG]
      The top bar on your home page tells you information. This is the information people may ask you during a war. "What are your troops at?", "How long until next regain?", "How many allies do you have?", "Got any money? How much?". Expect it and look here. It will tell you everything.
    • Troops
      [​IMG]
      You number of troops tell you weather:
      -You can Battle
      -You can win a battle
      -People can hit you

      Look at it periodically (pay attention).
      It will help.
    • Battle
      [​IMG]
      Tap this button to go to the battle-list.
      The battle list should look something like this:
      [​IMG]

      It is made up of players around your size that were recently active. To stay off other peoples battle-list the only real way is to not play the game.

      Why to battle people outside a war.

      While not helping you win a war, battling people can still be a useful thing. It can:
      -Make you money, as there is no tax per hit
      -Let you help a friend
      -Start a personal war.

      All of those show the purpose and game of KaW. A personal war, there is no system no rules, only exchanging hits to make the other player "Forfiet". When that happens you win.

      Helping a friend, is the foundation if our community, let it happen.

      Money is what makes the world go round.
    • Quests
      [​IMG]
      Quests, they can get you money, health crystals and nobility. All free of charge.
      Those come slow, but they do come.

    • Marketplace
      [​IMG]
      This is you marketplace. You can buy items, also known as pots, to increase your attack or defense stats. Each one only last fir one attack, or one defense. So buy lots!!

      You can also visit the oracle from this section in the toolbar.
      [​IMG]

      At the oracle everything costs real money, nobility, or crystals.

      For real money:
      -Propacks (All the packs that when you scroll down give you a stat bonus, more nobility, and speakers. They all cost $2.99 )
      -More nobility
      -More Health crystals

      For nobility:
      -More gold
      -A name change
      -Instantly regain troops

      For health crystals:
      -Instantly regain troops

      You can also visit the alchemist from the oracle.
      [​IMG]

      But to go there you must first:
      -Explore all the lowlands
      -Upgrade you castle for 4 billion

      Once you are there you can buy spells that increase stats, for a time period, change the color of your name, or hide you allies.

      These spells can be used by spending mithril (Gained by winning system em war).
      Mithril is hard to come by, use it wisely.
