Quick Decision Rules

• If village level ≤3 → use Light Loot template.
• If level 4–6 → use Balanced template.
• If level ≥7 → only attack if you can spare heavy losses or have superior naval escort.

Critical rule: Ranged units (archers, musketeers, mortars, gyrocopters) are your damage dealers. Melee units (hoplites, swordsmen, steam giants) are your meat shields. Never send melee alone. If village level ≤3 → use Light Loot template

The "Stage 2" Wave: Delay your Ranged Units (Archers or Sulfur Carabineers) until the 2nd round. This saves their limited ammunition for when the wall is already breached.
