This work if you know what troop you will have to fight and you know it when you fight or if your ennemy tell you first.
You will know what troop your ennemy use after the first battle so if the ennemy arrange troop differently the next battle will be the same mystery.
And the placement of the troop is one a the way to win not only knowing what you will fight, if you put anti cavalry troop in front of cavalry its better thant put them in the last row.
I will use different type of troop and rearrange them until i found the most suitable

Well my spies told me exactly how many and what troops I have to face so we will see

Yes with spy you can know what but not how they are arranged, but try and report us

hmm, kinda gives me an idea of what i should doo, tells me what units i need to cover for my other units that have a weakness
thanks for the tip

sweat had no clue it matterd how i arragend them

I tested it and chose heavy cavalry on the low lvl infantry as the scheme said. The enemy had twice as much soldiers and wall and towers but look at the report

Only your first hero fight against the hero, the only thing tou can say is that sniper is best against
dwarf warrior, and it's easily understandable.
The 370 other troop must be Dwarf soldier too, the lowest infantry.
Janny have a good city but is a fool, his power is just illusion.

Look my armies mostly longbowman, Lancer and Heavy cavalry. I have my lv12 hero with 2000+ power but its real power not lot of usless troops.
Longbowman have high ranged attack and defense, lancer have infantry and cavalry defense and All have very good attack power.I will use these for my armies in equal number.

I don't have lot of target around me and the other Lord around have stopped to spy/attack my wild mine since they meet my troops, frustrating.
If they attack one of these mine I could farm them but they don't move :/ or maybe should i try and see if they call their union...

Anyway good fight Blasta , you have good troops , will you focus on destroyer and sniper?

In my opinion your should test them and attack if they call a union. You will attack but I am pretty sure they will not attack back without warning seeing you in the top 10 union. If they will tell you that they make war if you won't stop attacking then you stop, simple

Right now I am focusing on cavalry (guard, which is good against every infantry except pike man type, defender is killing enemy cavalry and some other units) + snipers which take out enemy's long ranged units faster then any other unit) In the future I will also make destroyers which are good against everything except snipers/longbowman/slurbows. Other units are the waste of resources in my opinion. However right now I am making mass lvl 1 not upgraded infantry for a farming cities that are without an army

This is a battle report against SaD union members who attacked several times my wild mines.

His sniper was pretty good but they fight my sword dancer first and the other troops defeat them quickly.

Snipers should be in 3rd position and Meat shield in front.Whatever my armies was too powerfull for him.

As seen from the troop arranging diagram snipers are the most effective against two last cavalry and spear man type of unit. I think there is no golden rule when place troops, our placement should be adjusted to the enemy's troops (if we know it)

dang guess my 100 snipers and 117 gunner and uhh 50 defenders would lose to you?
wow dang!
from the chart that you guyss gave us, lol i think im lucky my units are aranged they are if Laesira was to attack me
i want a simulator to see the real results though

Well let's imagine the units are like in paper, rock scissors game. Snipers take out the best ranged cavalry which is the last units in the cavalry barracks, casual cavalry easily take out snipers and so on, look at the diagram and you will see what unit you need to use to counter enemy's units. Btw somewhere in the forum there is excel troops arranging tool. Unfortunately I have excel 2003 and can't use it, if u have 2007 version your can use it.

here is the link to it:
