Hints and tips

Focus on Objectives Rather than just eliminating enemy units, focus on the game's objectives to score victory points. Controlling key positions can turn the tide in your favor. Utilize Cover Position your units in cover to reduce incoming damage. This is crucial for keeping your troops alive and effective throughout the game. Balance Your Army A balanced force of infantry, support, and heavy units can adapt to various situations. Avoid putting all your resources into a single type of unit. Use Command Cards Wisely Command cards can significantly impact the game. Time their use to maximize their effects, especially during crucial moments in the battle. Coordinate Attacks Combine multiple units' firepower to focus on and eliminate high-priority targets, especially enemy leaders or powerful vehicles.
