Objectives

The goal of the game is to have the best stats at the end of the age. The player having the best overal stats wins the age. For example if a player has 1, 1, 1, 1 (SA, DA, Spy, Sentry) he/she undisputedly wins the age. If it is 2, 1, 2, 1 (SA, DA, Spy, Sentry) then the player with the lowest total—here the total is 6(2+1+2+1)—wins the age.

Each player gets a turn-based gold (TBG) of 1 gold for a soldier and 1 gold for every ten spy or sentry units. Mercenaries don't produce turn based gold. Also there is a unique Recruit link that each player can click 5 time every 24 hours to gain soldiers, although clearing browser cookies can allow for five more clicks. There is also a recruiter in which one can click others' link so that the morale of one's army increases. Depending on the morale our recruit link gets clicked.

The basic strategy is to have the biggest army possible to get the maximum TBG and invest the gold to get the best stats.

Players who share a common goal may form alliances with other players and co-ordinate actions with allies.
