Game play, briefly: 

* two rounds of wars (Friday night & Saturday Day) 

   - 30 minutes (starting at 00:10 and 12:30 sever time)

   - your ranking is determined by your best score between the two

* meteor hits ONE SERVER and makes a huge area with rewards

Earn points...

* by being in the mud

* by gathering and/or holding crystals and cores (higher points, but can be stolen by other players)

* by gathering debris (lower points, but safer for lower-level players)

Warnings

* DO NOT leave the mud or use alliance or random teleports during the event or you will drop any accumulated crystals

* If you are low-level don't land in the center circle or you'll likely get attacked

* don't teleport over to the blast area ahead of time or you will get teleported away when the meteor hits.

Strategy and Recommendations

Pre-war

* we have a non-aggression pact with 857

   - don't attack bases from 857 directly during the event

   - don't bump each other off crystals

   - Report any violations to the R5 or an R4 (including screenshots is preferable - send them in discord if you don't want to share in alliance chat)

* grab as many advanced teleports as possible before the event

* know who's mad at us and avoid players from those alliances

War

* don't go alone, but don't clump up

   - take a powerful friend who might be able to attack/distract people who might go for you

   - no more than three or four per group, or you compete for limited mines in a single area

It's only troops, they were born to die!
