Introduction
Set the battlefield ablaze with a well-timed artillery onslaught. Deploy cards like R3 Menace, GR Giga Crawler, J155 Brutus, XC-S 35, and G-21 Solomon to build a legion bristling with permanent attack bonuses. Complement these with morale cards All Hands and Strategic Shift to convert steady bonuses into a burst of explosive damage. This guide details how to stack buffs, optimize play order, and maximize your offensive potential.
Artillery Buffs: Building Your Offensive Core
Each artillery unit brings a permanent bonus to every other artillery in your legion. Here’s a quick breakdown:
- R3 Menace: +10 ATTACK To each artillery forces in your legion.
- J155 Brutus: +10 ATTACK To each artillery forces in your legion.
- XC-S 35: +10 ATTACK To each artillery forces in your legion.
- G-21 Solomon: +20 ATTACK To each artillery forces in your legion. (Triggers its SPENT ability)
- GR Giga Crawler: +30 ATTACK To each artillery forces in your legion.
Each bonus stacks with the others, turning even modest individual stats into a forceful, cumulative attack boost.
Crumbling the Numbers: Buff Stacking in Action
Consider this play sequence: deploy G-21 Solomon (+20), then add R3 Menace (+10), J155 Brutus (+10), and finish with GR Giga Crawler (+30). The bonuses accumulate dramatically. For example:
- G-21 Solomon: 90 base + bonuses from three other cards = 140 ATTACK
- R3 Menace: 110 base + bonuses from others = 160 ATTACK
- J155 Brutus: 110 base + bonuses from others = 160 ATTACK
- GR Giga Crawler: 180 base + bonuses from others = 220 ATTACK
Depending on play order and selection, cumulative bonuses can exceed +70, transforming a standard turn into a lethal offensive surge.
The cumulative bonus from these artillery cards can transform your board from steady power into a full-scale attack wave.
Deck Composition and Play Order
Consistency is key. In a standard 65-card deck, running 4 copies of the basic artillery cards means 20 artillery cards—about 31% of your deck. That equates to roughly a 97% probability of drawing at least one artillery card in your opening 7 cards.
- Run 4 copies of low-cost cards like R3 Menace, J155 Brutus, and XC-S 35 to reliably trigger their +10 bonuses.
- Consider 3 or 4 copies of GR Giga Crawler for its substantial +30 bonus.
- Play 2 to 3 copies of G-21 Solomon to balance its +20 boost with the SPENT drawback.
Optimize your play order by deploying cheaper artillery early. As resources build, introduce heavier hitters to quickly stack bonuses and overwhelm opponents.
Morale Boosts: Timing Your Offensive Burst
On top of static buffs, timed morale plays can deliver an extra surge of firepower. Two key morale cards can turn the tide:
- Strategic Shift: -1 MORALE. +20 ATTACK THIS TURN To each (type text) in your legion. (One per turn)
- All Hands: -3 MORALE. Decrease 2 specific non-leader timers in your legion by 1.
When your artillery board is loaded with cumulative bonuses, triggering Strategic Shift can elevate your attack for that turn, while All Hands speeds up timer-based effects to keep the pressure constant.
Final Thoughts
By stacking permanent artillery buffs and timing morale plays perfectly, an offensive deck in Warsaken can dominate the board. Deploy your low-cost units early, layer in high-impact artillery, and release morale cards at just the right moment to convert a steady buildup into a decisive strike.
