Kampen om Troja
"Kampen om Troja" er en adoption af det foregående event "Thrakiens Erobring".
Troja er styret af en falsk konge og skal befries. Achilles anmoder dig om at deltage i kampen om byen. Dette er en god mulighed for dig til at lede en hær af lejesoldater i krig og tjene eksklusive belønninger i kampen om at gøre dit Grepolis Imperium stærkere.
Kortet
Krigen imod Troja er vist på et kort, hvor du kan se de forskellige kamp grund. Hver kamp grund er markeret med et symbol der viser dens status:
Fra tid til anden for du muligheden for at vælge mellem 2 valg muligheder. Det er op til dig at beslutte hvilken belønning du ønsker. Du kan også føle dig fri til at rydde alle kamp grunde!
Kampen imod de Trojandske fjender
Hvis du vælger en kamp grund der kan angribes, vil et angrebs vinduet komme frem. Fjenden der er vist her og deres styrke vil blive vist i bunden og du kan vælge dine lejesoldater i øverste del af vinduet.
Husk at hver kamp grund har sin egen grænse for hvor mange enheder du kan bruge. Hvis du har flere lejesoldater end kamp grunden tillader, skal du lave en taktisk beslutning om hvilke typer enheder og hvor mange du vil sende i kamp. Hver enhed har sine svagheder og styrke imod specielle enheder.
Et eksempel:
Spydmænd giver 50% ekstra skade imod krigsheste. Hvis der er 50 fjendtlige krigs heste på kamp grunden og du har 70 spydmænd til din rådighed, er det en god ide at vælge 50 spydmænd. Skaden bonussen tæller ikke for de ekstra spydmænd. Lad os sig at kamp grunden tillader dig at bruge 80 lejesoldater, du kan da bruge de resterende 30 pladser (50 er allerede taget af de spydmænd du valgte) til tropper af eget valg. Dog vil det ikke være klogt at sende . send Ferocious Warriors as the enemy War Horses would deal extra damage against the Ferocious Warriors!
As you can see, quite a bit of strategic thinking is asked for.
Should you be victorious, you will receive the respective reward of that battleground. Alternatively you can leave the reward at the battleground until the end of the event to claim it at any later point in time. If you collect your reward, enemies will repopulate the battleground again after 4 hours, but every time their forces will be even stronger than before. This way you can repeatedly get the same reward whereas the challenge continues to rise.
Another noteworthy feature is that, even if you are defeated when attacking the enemies, the casualties on the enemy side are permanent. This means that you can wear down the enemy with many smaller attacks until you are finally victorious.
Achilles
When you attack an enemy battleground, Achilles can help you in that attack, which in turn will lift the morale of your mercenaries and raise their combat power by 20%. After his heroic act he needs to rest for 12 hours to recover. But you can also motivate him to go right into battle again with some Gold.
The mercenaries
Although you start your path of conquest with a few mercenaries, you shouldn't stick to such a small force. The following activities in the game will help you to find new groups of mercenaries at random and therefore to build a stronger army:
- Attacking and defending
- Recruiting units
- Research
- Construction of buildings
- Casting of spells
If you find a group of mercenaries, 8-12 random fighters will join your forces (Skirmishers, Ferocious Warriors, Gastraphetes Archers, War Horses, Myrmidons). Keep in mind that you can find a maximum of 10 groups of mercenaries per day. Of course you can also buy 10 mercenaries for Gold which will remain with you until the end of the event. The Gold price for one type of unit increases itself by the base price with every use. The price will be reset every midnight.
If your mercenaries get severely wounded, this is no reason to discard these tough, able fighters. Why? Because every 7 hours a healer will arrive at the camp of your mercenaries to tend to every injured mercenary. If you want to have your army ready for action again as fast as possible, you can pay the healer some Gold and he will arrive at once.
You will receive a special reward for clearing the last stage (stage 34) for the first time:
On worlds without heroes, all players will get a whole free culture level for free.
On worlds with heroes, you get, additionally to the free culture level, the new exclusive hero "Hector".
