An appropriate formation could let you win with less troops. 

　　Here are four attacking types: Horizontal AOE Damage, Single Attack, Vertical AOE Damage, and All Targets AOE Damage

　　Crossbowman Horizontal AOE Damage: Damage all targets on horizontal direction.

　　Warrior Doing single attack, Damage one enemy target

　　Gunman Vertical AOE Damage, Damage all targets on vertical direction. 

　　Chariot All Direction AOE: Damage all targets

　　An appropriate formation and positioning enable commander to reduce losses and maximize damage. Here are two formation recommendations. 

　　 When facing three horizontal AOE damage soldiers on the front row, put one Crossbowman on the front and three Chariots on the back to win easily. Do not fight against whose level is 2 or more higher than yours. 

　　When facing three vertical AOE damage soldiers on the front row, empty position No. 1 and put some baits in position No. 4 and Chariots in position No.2 and No.3 to win easily. Do not fight against whose level is 2 or more higher than yours. 

　　Above two formations suit new commanders. Once you understand each soldier’s aura and restraint effects, you will become a strategic commander.
