How to play night siege?

Hello DOGs,

in the meantime we have played the night siege several times.

We have to defend five fortresses from incoming beasts/wolfs.

Per event there will be up to 30 waves.

During every wave something between 4 and 8 beasts/wolfs attack fortresses number #2-5, while Fortress #1 is always attacked by only 2 beasts/wolfs.

For every beast/wolf which is incoming into a fortress we need one lord to defend.

If there are not enough lords in a fortress, meaning more beasts/wolfs than lords, beasts/wolfs are breaking through and hit center.

When center is hitted it loses hitpoints. When hitpoints are down to zero it is game over.

Strategy:

The two wolfs attacking fortress #1 are very strong -> fortress #1 needs to be defended by strongest lords. Two are enough, one lord per beast.

As attack to fortress #1 arrives very late, it is possible that lords can defend fortress #5 and #4 first and then move to fortress #1, during same wave.

This means: We do not need any lords sitting permanently in fortress #1. Sitting permanently in fortress #1 is simply waste.

Ideal Setup (related to max beasts attacking a fortress, never seen more than 5 at #2, 6 at #3, 7 at #4, 8 at #5)

Fortress #1: No seated at all, covered by strongest lords defending #5/#4

Fortress #2: 5 lords

Fortress #3: 6 lords

Fortress #4: 7 lords

Fortress #5: 8 lords

So in total we should be able to manage night siege with 26 lords, as long as weakest lord can defend weakest beast.

Limiting factor is not strongest lord but weakest.

Seen issues:

- People sitting permanently in fortress #1 - not needed at all

- Fortress #2 or #3 are overseated while fortress #4 or #5 was underseated - move your a**.

- Too many weak lords in one and same fortress - we should not have more than 2 lords per fortress with less than 100k troops, weak lords need to be distributed to fortress #2 - #5.

Ideally only few lords move during Event.

We should have two lords covering #1 and #5/#4 plus a few jumper, which move their troops to a fortress which needs support.

Extra loot: During waves 1-10, 11-20 and 21-30 there will be a chest/egg which can be attacked for extra loot. This target will be there for two minutes.

Ideally this target is attacked by one lord from closest fortress after the actual wave is done. There is enough time. If lord is not strong enough third chest/egg (waves 21-30) needs to be attacked by two lords to beat it.

What do you think? Did I miss anything? Any Feedback is appreciated.

Best regards,

Lian
