30 Clouds
Attack
Strike a neutral or enemy target adjacent to a connected allied territory.
Read before acting
Open this guide when you want to understand fast, not read for long.
This help page does not replace reading the front. It simply puts back into view what really matters: score, connectivity, action scarcity, pings, and operations.
Before your first live pass, when your team loses a corridor, or when you return after a few days away from the front.

The costs stay simple. Read them quickly, then answer the important question: where should you spend to move the front.
20 Clouds
Fortify
Adds one permanent fortification level to an allied territory.
20 Clouds
Repair
Restores control on a weakened allied territory.
60 Clouds
Build a Hub
Upgrades a connected allied territory into an economic and defensive node.
Free
Ping
A team ping signals intent. Three compatible pings unlock an operation.
After action costs, keep these four rules in mind. They explain how many hits really matter, what raises defense, and what resets on capture.
Capture
How much does a capture cost?
An attack always costs 30 Clouds and 1 action. The number of hits depends on remaining control and defense.
1 attack = 30 Clouds + 1 action
- 1 / 2 / 3+ connected allied borders = 50 / 55 / 60 power.
- Attack operation: +10 power.
- Example: a standard neutral tile (40 control, 0 defense) falls in 1 attack.
- An enemy tile at 100 control without special defense needs at least 2 attacks.
Defend
What increases defense?
Fortification, hub, and Defense operation stack. The higher the total, the more hits you need.
Defense = 10 × fortification + 10 if hub + 10 if Defense operation
- Fortify costs 20 Clouds and adds +10 defense per level, up to 3.
- A hub adds +10 defense on top of its economic role.
- Fortification 3 + hub = 40 defense before Defense operation even triggers.
- Defense operation: +10 defense. Outside HQ, the temporary cap rises to 50.
After capture
What happens on capture?
Taking a territory does not stabilize it. It returns fragile and loses its heavy support immediately.
Capture reset: control 50 / fortification 0 / hub destroyed
- Applied damage = max(15, power - defense).
- If control drops to 0 or below, the territory changes team.
- HQ territories cannot be captured in V1.
Support
What hub and repair change
Hub and repair help hold a line, revive a broken territory, and keep production alive.
Hub = 60 Clouds or 45 with Hub operation
- Hub: +10 defense and +1 Cloud / hour, even if the territory becomes isolated.
- Repair costs 20 Clouds: +35 connected control, +25 isolated control.
- Repair operation: +10 additional control.
- Hub operation: reduced cost at 45 Clouds.
Winning means producing more Clouds than the other teams.
You are not here to collect clicks. You are here to keep a network alive that produces more than the others.
- The season is won by the total Cloud output generated by your team.
- Spending team bank Clouds does not erase points already earned on the score.
- Captures matter most when they keep the network alive and production steady.
Understand the corridor before chasing the duel.
The map already tells you what the front looks like. Read the HQ connection first, then control and defense.
- A connected territory keeps a continuous path back to your team HQ.
- An isolated territory stops producing, stops regenerating, and can no longer launch attacks or receive a Hub.
- Control, defense, Hub, and active operations are the first things to read before spending anything.
Spend little, but spend well.
Your resources are scarce. A small move in the right place beats a flashy spend in the wrong one.
- Each player gets 3 actions per day, reset at midnight Paris time.
- Your personal budget is capped so one player cannot drain the team bank alone.
- The free ping helps coordination. It does not replace a proper read of the territory.
Coordinate your team before forcing the front.
Clouds-War is rarely won alone. Signals, team timing, and corridors held together make the difference.
- Team chat is for coordination, global chat for reading the public war, the feed for following events.
- Three compatible pings, sent by three players from the same team on the same territory within 12 hours, unlock an operation.
- Operations grant a temporary bonus. They turn social coordination into mechanical impact.
The first useful move often starts with a clean read.
The best first move is not always an attack. Reading, pinging, and protecting one useful axis is often enough.
- In preseason, spot your team, the map, the HQ, and the areas that already matter.
- On your first live entry, read a territory before opening the action menu.
- If your team is struggling, go for break points first, then cut corridors and active operations.
Read the map before you read the conversation.
When you come back, look for the useful front before the mood. The game should get you back to a simple decision quickly.
- The return brief gives back your actions, your ping, hot fronts, and a clear recommendation.
- Start from an important territory, not a scroll of messages.
- If nothing stands out, go back to the map and re-read your network before spending.
