Random World War questions?

[astero]

Just thought I'd create a thread where people could ask all sorts of questions regarding WWs.

1. Do we get to use all our tactics during a WW battle? Do we get them all instantly "replenished" after the battle so that we can use them again straight away against the next opponent? Seems quite easy if I can use all 5 and then minutes later use all 5 again against the next base...

2. Do all troops lost in battle get retrained instantly, including planes?

Yes you can use all tactics in war (as in pvp); no tactics or troops do not instant regenerate, unless you crown them

 

[astero]

Thanks. So I can just replenish them as normal using food and wait?

 

[maggiepie]

Yes, that's correct

Do I need to activate a second general before war day in order to get 2 during the WW?

As far as I know, we can't have 2 generals active on World War bases. Activating/deactivating generals in Town bases have no effect on the general getting activated in the war base.
Conversely, if your generals are recuperating their health on your town base, it has no impact on your war base - your highest level general always stays active on the war base and defends your war base.
On your war base, if your highest level general loses health during the first attack against your base, there's no recuperation time needed for that general - the highest level general remains active to defend your war base, even if your war base gets attacked almost immediately after the first attack against your base.
That said, you can activate your second general for your attacks in the world war. But, similar to tactics and troops, if they lose health in your first attack, they need recuperation time before they will be available for your use, for your second attack.

Astero, activation or deactivation of generals does not affect ww defense. You will have your best general defending on every defense, unless it is unavailable due to upgrade I think. Your second best general will also defend your town if you have researched leadership lvl 3 in your library.
This you can read in the in game customer service "world war - Planning day -> how are the generals that show up in world war defense selected"

i agree that activation of 2 generals in normal base has nothing to do with spawning them in war base but i faced 2 generals twice in war battles

Motaz Tarek: How did you face bases with two generals defending them? I would be interested to know. Is there any library research you can do for this? As far as I have experienced, I can only activate both generals for attacks - not for WW base defense. Even though both generals are active, only one shows up on my Castle for defense.

I just experienced the same as Motaz... For the first time today I went against a town that had only one general, lvl 5, showing, but when I attacked 2 generals spawned. Is this a glitch? Cheating? or is that supposed to happen when you have level 3 of leadership researched in the library? I researched that and want to know if my level 10 and 9 general is then spawned when someone attacks my base in world war?

 

[Jojos]

Empire - I don't know how it is done, but I just went up against 2 generals in a world war battle. That had never happened before today, so I don't know if it is supposed to happen. Only 1 showed when I scouted out the town and clicked attack. But when the general spawned from the castle - 2 spawned, both level 5. Either this is a glitch or the coders need to fix the bug that doesn't show both generals defending the base. It messes people up scouting a base, planning an attack, and then being surprised by 2 generals instead of one.

I am still unclear about:

1. Can two generals defend a war base? If yes, why don't they appear on the castle like the first one does? Is it a glitch?

2. If yes, how can you get both generals to defend your base? Is it automatic if you have done the Leadership research Ch.3? Do you need to have two generals active?

Also, I have completed researching Ch.3 of Leadership, yet only one general defends my war base. At least, I only see one defending it.

For this I think it best to sabotage the castle and take it out before the general(s) spawn in war. And, we need WAR REPLAYS!!

 

[SourKraut]

I have faced 2 generals during war multiple times. And i always assume my castle popps 2 as well gor my D. But who know since there are no replays of war. Why why why is it still that way?

 

[Jojos]

I have the same confusion Empire. It was my understanding that only one general defends the war base - tho you can use 2 in battle. It only shows one, so until 2 spawned (I think it was a glitch or cheating on the part of the player), I thought that is how it was. I think Nexom needs to fix this and either show 2 defending, or force it to only allow 1. If we had war replays we could see if our base spawned 2 as well. I usually only sabotage a castle if the general is my same level or above. Level 5 seemed fine against my lvl 10 and 9 generals, but I agree with your viewpoint.

When someone donated troops to your war base on preparation day, will they come out to protect your base during BOTH attacks, or if the first attacker destroys them then they will no longer be available to defend your base?

 

[Martine]

There is a heap of information for you to read under FAQ.

The short answer is they protect your base for all attacks during the war.

 

[sponge]

These troops are available during ALL attacks. Your assumption that you can only be attacked twice is incorrect. You can probably get attacked 50 times (in 50 vs 50). I've seen people in my alliance getting attacked as many as 5 times.
