Kill zombies, form alliances, and lead human civilization back from the brink of doom in this zombie strategy MMO.

General My City Stuff

My world reset happens at 7/8PM New Jersey
In UCA I have a lvl 26 hall and a lvl 23 hall.
I have an active monthly Value Card, $7.45 after taxes and fees, that provides 300 gold every day and other benefits on my lvl 26 hall.

My layout has six of every rss farm. I try to have these at max level. My steel output is 1.1k+1.0/h and steel capacity 11.6k+10.2k in my 26. 

Fleet Army = 681,651 units. As my fleet size is 134,111, I don’t need to spend time dividing my units by 4. I always divide my units into equal amounts for my 4 fleet queues. 
I always have all vehicle research completed.

VIP lvl 8, Sergeant
Prosperity Level 13

Troop Promotion

I time this to complete just after the daily reset. I believe you can use the completion for the Daily Reward points so it’s prudent to time it to complete one minute after the reset.

Command Center

Director: I. Medici (lvl 20 mastery 356) & F. Medici (lvl 17 mastery 274)
Strategy: Major Morgan (lvl 20 mastery 324) & Loreline (lvl 14 mastery 212)
Warfare: Kingsley (lvl 14 mastery 256) & Tifa (lvl 15 mastery 232) & Panda Jack (lvl 11 mastery 180) & Alexandria (lvl 8 mastery 178) & Aeon (lvl 8 mastery 150)

Going to replace Alexandria with Storm Bow once I have enough

I have a number of skills attached to the officers including steel expert and steel gathering speed. Will be adding minerals when officer slots open.

Depot

I use the free resource sale and always choose steel and minerals

Academy

I focus on increasing resources research to increase abilities to collect rss faster. Second I focus on Military to get additional max troops in armies.

Equipment Factory

Perform merges after the daily reset as part of the daily reward.

Black Market

Sell all 4 RSS at beginning of daily reset. I buy gas to be used for one of the phase events. I buy turret Parts to be able to upgrade wall defenses. I buy Leader Badge so I can use the Dispatch Center and upgrade my Max Rally.  I also like to by the 1 day mineral and steel speed ups.

Distribution Center/Exchange Store

Be sure to sell off all your basic officer fragments. Buy advanced officer fragments when possible.

Biochemical Lab

In the treatment room which you can use 4 times a reset I always choose the supplies that take the longest to explore. Sometimes I will focus on the supplies that produce Elite Teleport Fragments. I use the hospital after any event involving armies to heal army members. I use the Biochemical Workshop and create additional troops. 

Alliance

Always perform Alliance Help. Log on frequently to clear this.

Alliance Battles

Review this when anyone is battling. You can click to go to the hall that your team member is attacking. If the hall is within your range that you could attack, I go after lvl 17 and higher as I would like to plunder steel, bookmark the location by clicking below the enemy hall. I never attack any city with an alliance. I never attack any city that is already burning as they will have low resources. I only attack once a day as that way the next day the available rss is typically high again. I also will keep the msg’s produced by the action and remove yesterday’s msg’s. If you run out of bookmarks to store this msg saving is helpful to track and make sure you hit them all in a reset session.

Morning Routine

Harvest
Press the Commander Skill icon on the right side of the screen.
If you have advanced your Development Commander Skills to include Harvest you should be able to click the far left Harvest icon and get 6 hours of rss from all your buildings.  Try to do this first thing in the morning so 12 hours from now you can press the button for your second harvest of the day.

Check Daily Reward Progress
Confirm that City Hall Daily Reward has completed and all chests have been opened.
If not complete then review what is available. Often just collect created overnight armies or collect overnight RSS.
Important to always complete the Daily Reward. 

Collect all from the hall. Start more army building. Make sure they will complete before the daily reset or within a few minutes after the reset. That way I can start the armies and get reset points when complete. I always have all armies building. I have all of my army factories at max level.

Army building
I always build either front or back troops. Never middle troops. Front troops will slow the monsters enough so the back row can kill. I always time my number of recruits to finish just after the daily reset. That way I can start my armies after the reset and have them complete for the Daily Reward.

City Resource Collection
Log on often and shake. If your rss building reaches your farm max you stop rss generation.

Embassy Collection:
Log on often and collect.

Read all mail and collect.

Check bag and use anything in other except fuel and detector. On the resources tab in the the bag. Do not collect anything here.  Leave it for when you need an upgrade and you are short.

Save health heals for events. Don’t use them just to speed up healing without a purpose.

Save transport speed ups for events and attacks.

Check Manage Alliance/Contribution Ranking. If under 200 for daily, donate to Alliance Technology and Alliance Institute.

Make sure both builder icons are active and building. I believe it is worth it to spend the gold to always have the second builder going.

Attack my bookmarks. Provides rss.

Attack monsters until all fuel is used. The benefit is collecting crates for your bag.

Send all armies out to collect RSS. I focus on steel and minerals as they are most difficult to collect. Use elite mines if available. Never use elite mines that have a shared alliance tax. Use the radar for other mine locations. I like to use lvl 3’s and not go for mines that are far away. Check often to make sure they haven’t finished collecting and repeat as necessary.

Noon

Check Manage Alliance/Contribution Ranking. If under my personal goal of 200 for daily, donate to Alliance Technology and Alliance Institute. Tech chips are usually in your bag if you participate in any of the shared events or rallys.  Donate the Tech chips to the Alliance Institute to hit your daily or weekly goal.

Check that RSS collection is going on all of your queues

Check that armies are being created.

7/8 PM Daily Reset

Check Manage Alliance/Contribution Ranking. If under 200 for daily, donate to Alliance Technology and Alliance Institute.

Perform all the Daily Rewards

I use this order: Black Market Trade, Start a quick research that will complete before the next refresh, Equipment Facility meld, Distribution Exchange Store purchase, collect all created armies and restart them (make sure they will finish before the next refresh), collect and start a new Troop Promotion that will complete by the next refresh. Try to have a building upgrade going. Go to the world screen and reinforce your nearest neighbor and then withdraw. Go to the world screen and perform a rss assistance with your nearest neighbor. Then City Ruins Exploration 3 times. Perform enough Slay Monsters to complete goal. Go to the Alliance screen and donate max to Alliance Technology and Alliance Institute. Challenge Elite Zombie 2 times. Click the Gather Power Ore and set some of your army to collect 1500 power ore by next reset. Fun fact: Gather Power ore does not count as one of your vehicle queues. So you can have 5 fleets running overnight.  Set to collect the other required rss that is needed. Divide your army so you can run all of your fleets up to 5 if you are a level 19. Don’t forget your Biochemical lab to be exploring for the night.

Make sure all troops are out gathering while you sleep. Same for generating armies.

This is a tracking sheet that I like to keep to help determine my progress and upgrades. Once in a while I go and survey my bag and update the numbers. The same for the current counts.

Giant Wyrm Invasion

In the Giant Wyrm Invasion the alliance goal is to kill as many wyrms as possible. The alliance method is to use a timed attack. This attack when properly executed will result in multiple armies arriving at the same time and dealing the maximum damage to kill the wyrm. Each trip uses gas which will deplete and takes time to replenish. The best results are achieved by killing the wyrm in one trip.

One member will call out a wrym location in the alliance public chat and then respond with a number. That number represents the time that it will take for the member to attack. The member calling the attack found a wrym, called up the attack on their screen, found the attack time on the screen and then did not start the attack.

All members who wish to help will then click on the coordinates provided by the leading member and perform the same task. Open the attack screen, find the time, close the attack screen, report the number on the alliance chat.

The member who started the attack will tell the member with the highest time to start the attack.

All members will go to the Alliance Battles Event area of the app. All members will watch the countdown for the attack that has been started. Typically give yourself +5 seconds of your reported attack time and join the battle with your army. Actions in this area when done well result in all of the members armies arriving at the same time.

Always have a full size army for this event. There are many other techniques on how to arrange a full army to have the most effective types.

I’ll update this with screen shots the next time we have a wyrm event.

I hope this helps.

Phase Event

The Phase Event is a five part event that appears to currently occur every two weeks. The events are Attack Monsters, Gather RSS, Build, Create Soldiers , Kill Event. Note that these change order randomly.

The Order of Phases Keeps Changing

Attack Monsters

Information on attacking monsters to complete the phase.

Research Fuel Up in the Development area of the Academy to improve fuel recovery time.

Under Commander Skills in the Development section you can work to use points to both improve fuel recovery speed and get an instant 50 fuel recovery commander skill.

If you have been spending money in the black market buying gas you should have some in your bag.

Attack monsters as soon as the reset takes place. You should hopefully have a full tank (100) of gas as displayed at the top of the screen by the tire. Each trip to attack a monster is 10 points. It’s very important to pick monsters that you can beat. If you attack monsters every day you should be familiar with your limits. Some players will arrange their army to achieve a higher battle point (bp) level. I don’t bother with this area. I use all of my gas and then from my bag I used a Fuel and then exhausted that before ending the night. Either save a Fuel in your bag for this event or purchase one from the black market.

In the morning after my Fuel was restored to 100 I complete the event and I’m able to collect all the rewards.

Gather RSS

Information on gathering RSS to complete the phase. This phase starts after the Monday reset and ends at the Tuesday reset.

Time your gathering during the day to complete just after the nightly reset. That way if this phase starts you collect points before needing to start more gathering. Use a 1 day gather speed bonus. Use a VIP if it will increase your number of fleets and you have armies not gathering. Try to collect minerals for 1 point and steel for .5 points versus oil for .1 points. But as Food and Oil gather faster it is sometimes better to gather them. Check your remaining points needed and make sure you withdraw to collect. Check the gathering armies often. If the amount gathered has stopped, withdraw to collect the rss and then start more gathering. I like to gather gold overnight because it takes so long and you get 900 points per piece gathered. As an experiment I sent out 4 fleets to gather gold timed to end just after the reset to see what happens. These days you have to guess what phase is next. Currently trying this on phase 2 which is Create Solders so we will see if I guessed well.

Your alliance can activate the Alliance Gather Skill which will grant a gather bonus for 12 hours. Your Alliance can also choose to activate a Mine Reset and instantly reset one type of Elite Mine in the Alliance Territory.

Build

Information on building to complete the phase. This phase last 24 hours and typically runs from the Monday reset to Tuesday reset.

I’m rarely able to complete this phase as I typically have a long term build going on that doesn’t complete during the phase. Ideally you would need to time your builds so you can use your two builds during this phase and work on your lowest level buildings that could complete in 24 hours. Researching Architecture in the Development area of the Academy can help to improve speed. You can also chose to use building speed ups to decrease time if you have saved them. Ideally start a multi-day build which is worth more points on the first day of the phase event and time it to complete on the Build phase day.

Here is a lvl 22 city completion reward:

Here is a lvl 25 completion reward:

Create Soldiers

Information on creating soldiers to complete the phase. This phase starts after the Wednesday reset and ends at the Thursday reset.

Time your soldiers creation during the day to finish just after the nightly reset. That way you collect points if the Create Soldiers phase is beginning Make sure that you have max upgraded your training grounds buildings so you can create the largest number of armies at the quickest recruitment time. Hold your speed ups for this part of the event so you can use them to complete recruitment faster and start another set of soldiers. Make sure you set the total time of completion to less than when the event ends.

Your alliance can activate the Alliance Recruitment Skill which will increase recruitment speed for 12 hours.

Level 22 completion reward:

Level 25 completion reward:

Phase 5/5 Kill Event

Information on surviving the Phase 5 Kill Event. This phase starts after the Thursday reset and ends at the Sunday reset.

Try to have your hospital at max level. Also max your medic stations. Review your Garage/Fleet Army to understand your max wounded units. If you don’t wish to lose any of your army, never go over this number.

Bubble/shield if you don’t want to lose rss or armies from attacks. You can support your fellow alliance members by reinforcing when an attack is imminent. Best technique is to reinforce after an enemy starts to travel for an attack and you arrive with your forces before the attack starts. If you reinforce as soon as a scout is sent you risk the enemy scouting a second time and calculating if their force if bigger than yours in order to decide the attack. You get points for defending. Even when you lose armies you get points.

Level 22 city reward:

Void Portal

Void Portal is a Nation to Nation battle. The duration is 1 day. There is an e-mail announcement published at the beginning of the Phase event week if this is occurring. The event occurs Saturday to Sunday reset. You port into the other world and explore and battle. The objective is to kill armies. Your city is protected while you are away. Take direction from your Alliance leadership. If the other nation is to strong then you will be directed to put up a shield for the duration of the event. Also armies must not gather rss as they are also at risk to be attacked.

Battle Frenzy

Battle Frenzy is a 24 hour event where no armies are permanently lost and no rss is lost or gained. This event is about attack/defend points.

Based on your hall level you can work towards the below examples for points goals.
