Foundry Battle

Overview

Foundry Battle is a server-vs-server event held every two weeks. Alliances fight to control buildings on the map, earning points for the first capture and for every minute they hold a building. It lasts 60 minutes. Note: troops do not die in this event — they are fully healed after the battle.

Attendance matters: the opponent is matched to roughly equal strength, so only register members who will actually play.

Registration

• 30 fighters + 10 substitutes (subs can enter 3 minutes after the start).
• Join the alliance before registration ends and do not leave it until registration closes, or your registration is lost.

Requirements

• Furnace level 16+.
• Recommended: plenty of Advanced Teleporters (10+); save Healing Speedups and use them only for Foundry.

To enter the battlefield

• No troops out scouting, gathering, attacking, in a garrison, etc.
• No wounded troops.
• No active reinforcements.

Battle phases

• Phase 1 (0–15 min): Prototype Sites (×2), Repair Facilities (×4), Boiler Room, Transit Station.
• Phase 2 (15–30 min): Imperial Foundry, Munitions Warehouse, Mercenary Camp.
• Phase 3 (30–60 min): Weapon Workshops — spawn at random spots on the map.

Building points

Control time to capture a building is about 2 minutes (1 minute with the Boiler Room buff).

PvP points: defense — 40 points per 10,000 power defeated; offense — 80 points per 10,000.

Buildings & buffs

• Imperial Foundry — the most points. Send your strongest players here; capture it with rallies.
• Prototype Sites — second most points.
• Repair Facilities — one in each map corner; they repair the Foundry equipment.
• Boiler Room — building control time −50% (capture in 1 min instead of 2).
• Transit Station — Advanced Teleporter cooldown −50%.
• Munitions Warehouse — +15% troop damage and −15% damage taken.
• Mercenary Camp — up to 4 escalating attack squads against enemy buildings (lower enemy attack and defense).

Quick tips

• You get one free Advanced Teleporter at the start; after using it there is a cooldown. Do not teleport without need.
• Leaving the battlefield triggers a 12-minute cooldown; during it your troops are fully healed.
• Activate pet buffs (march capacity, attack/lethality, defense/health, march speed) and city buffs.
• Bring 10+ Advanced Teleporters and use the free march-speed boosts.
• On point overflow, 50% goes to the alliance and 50% to your personal temporary points.

Tactics

• Burn down weaker players.
• Capture buildings.
• After capturing, quickly collect the scattered shells — this is very important!
• Do not leave buildings undefended.
• Send reinforcements to neighboring buildings.

Attacking

• Attack players weaker than you right after they move their best heroes out of the city.
• Attack with rallies and tag nearby people in chat.

Defending

When you are attacked:

• Bring your best heroes back into the city.
• Against a much stronger attacker, move all troops out of the city.
• Use a teleport.
• If a teammate is being attacked, send reinforcements.
