How to Develop Your Strength

Hi, commander. As a few days have passed since our last lesson, I assume you have learned the basics about how things work in this new world. But to survive through these complicated, dangerous times, one must never be content with things as they are, but should be always striving for further development. Luckily, there is indeed no lack of efficient ways for talented person like you to develop your strength and become stronger. Let me explain further.

**Develop Your Troops**

**1.    Unlock More Powerful Units**

There are 6 totally different types of units for you to create and train. Theoretically, every one of them is unique with its own strengths and weaknesses. For example, Wolverine moves fast and can be an ideal weapon to capture low level sectors quickly. Smilodon, in spite of its slow speed, is extremely powerful to deter and destroy any invaders. Practically speaking, I strongly suggest you should do your best to unlock and use units with higher parameters of armor and attack. The power of your troops basically means your survival chance in this world.

**2.    Upgrade and Equipment**

Upgrading a unit to a higher level can not only improve its power, but also can change its appearance, making it more deterrent to enemies. Every unit has 3 different appearances at 3 different levels.

Furthermore, upgrading a unit can unlock its equipment slots. Three types of equipment provide additional attributes including attack increase, armor increase, or damage mitigation. They can also be upgraded to a higher level, which brings greater improvement. In a word, upgrade and equipment are the main ways to strengthen your troops.

**Develop Your Captains**

**1.    Captain’s Rarity, Level, and Squad Bonus**

All captains can be classified into 3 categories based on their rarity: Legendary (orange color), Epic (purple color), and Elite (blue color). Elite captains are the most common ones, followed by Epic and Legendary. The rarer the captain is, the greater the growth potential is. A legendary captain has the highest level in terms of capacity, including leadership, attack bonus, armor bonus, and number of skills. And of course, it will cost you a lot of efforts to acquire and cultivate one. You can acquire your favorite captain from Captain Packs or Rank rewards.

If you haven’t had a chance to recruit a powerful captain, then I would suggest you to have a look at the common ones from the same squad. Because captains, regardless of their rarity, enjoy squad bonus if they come from the same squad. The more captains of the same squad you have, the better the bonus you’ll get.

**2.    DNA Modification and Skill System**

If you have two or more identical captains, you can spend one to improve the other by using DNA modification technology. As the modified captain’s attributes grow to a threshold value, new skills can be unlocked. Some of the skills are very powerful that may help you turn the tide of a battle, like Unbreakable Shield, which reduces damage taken by 100% for 7s in a battle.

**Others**

**1.    Science Research**

In Science Research, every technology requires a certain amount of resources to be unlocked. It provides you powerful buffs like attack increase.

**2.    Tactical Weapon**

When you are engaging in a battle, tactical weapons can be employed by you to make precision strike upon enemies. The weapon’s power increases as your rank improves and relevant technology unlocks.

**3.    Legion Team Buff**

Every legion has three functional teams: battle team, support team, and logistics team. You can apply to join one and enjoy the corresponding team buffs, like attack and armor buffs from the battle team. Buffs can be enhanced by improving team level.

That’s it, my commander. I sincerely wish you’ll have the opportunity to savor the final victory! See you next lesson!
