Gevecht

Basis

Elvenar is een vredige wereld! Om die vrede echter te bewaren, zal het soms nodig zijn om geweld te gebruiken. Zoals al verteld, zal je soms om de Relikwieën te verzamelen die je nodig hebt om de ontwikkeling van je stad te bevorderen, Provincies moeten verkennen waar je kennis zult maken met de stammen die over die provincies heersen.

Op dat moment, zal je de keuze krijgen om met de Provinciehandelaar te onderhandelen voor de Relikwieën of de eenheden in de provincie te bevechten en de Relikwieën zo te bemachtigen.

In iedere Provincie zal je een leger aantreffen, dat verschilt per provincietype. Hoe verder je van je stad vandaan raakt, hoe groter die legers zullen worden en hoe complexer de combinaties van troepen. Net als met je eigen eenheden, zullen de aantallen eenheden in een Provincietroep afhankelijk zijn van hun gewicht.

Army Setup

To prepare for battle you will first need to train your troops in the Barracks. Once you have a big enough army you will be able to fight your way to collect Relics.

Right before you start to battle you will need to set up your army. On the battlefield, each unit type will be grouped into Squads.The Squad Size of your troops will increase with each 'Squad Size Upgrade" you unlock in the Research Tree. However, you will be able to place from 1 to 5 Squads on the battlefield, right from the start. So remember: The more the the merrier!

You will be able to remove Squads and replace them, as long as you haven't started the battle.

You will always place a full Squad on the battlefield unless you do not have enough units in a Squad to fill it, in that case only a partial Squad will be placed.

As said, the Squads have a size which will increase throughout the game: The bigger the Squad the more units will fit into it and the stronger it will be.

Your enemies will also have different Squad sizes. The Squad size of your enemies increase with each new Province you Scout and with the distance of the Province from your city!

By clicking on the on your enemies' image, you will see their attributes per unit.

The Battlefield

On the battlefield you will find the fighters already in their starting positions. Your troops are on the left, and their range is marked in yellow. Your opponent's are on the right, and their range is marked in red.

Each Squad takes one hex on the field and its movement range will be highlighted.

Sometime you will also find different type of obstacles on the battlefield so you will need to develop different tactics to attack or defend. If the units in the squad can attack from long range, they can of course also attack over obstacles.
