Exercise Surging Storm: Gameplay Guide

The event kicks off with helpful tutorials explaining the mechanics. Don't be intimidated—it's simpler than it seems! Here's a concise overview:

Before each wargame, select your Combat Units (your troops) and Stratagems (power-ups/buffs). Units are categorized (AoE Damage, Flying, Ranged, Melee), each with strengths and weaknesses (e.g., Melee counters Ranged).

Study your opponent's lineup beforehand. Preview their units and adjust your own using the bottom-right diagram indicating unit effectiveness. Remember, changing your lineup consumes Reinforcement Points, so strategize carefully.

Understanding unit roles is crucial:

• Melee Units: High damage absorption, but slow.
• Ranged Units: Attack from a distance, but low health.
• AoE DMG Units: Deal damage to groups of units.
• Flying Units: Evade ground attacks, immune to certain damage types.

Leveling up units enhances their effectiveness. Use the same unit in consecutive rounds to boost their level. Refresh available Combat Units and Stratagems for better options. Elemental Reactions function as in the overworld; leverage them for maximum impact.

Even losses yield Wargame Medals, accumulating towards rewards. Winning grants more medals, but consistent participation ensures reward acquisition, albeit at a slower pace.
