Author10 tiles
Hi all,

Ok, I'm a lvl 5 knight and I have these troops, Recruits, Bowmen, Swordsmen and Griffins.

Now my Qs are these -

1) If I were to join a 3v3 battle, each player is allotted 10 tiles, so there's no way I can split my griffins to 2 or more stacks and start a battle right? Since splitting my griffin would take up 8 tiles, and I only have 2 tiles left for recruit, bowmen and swordsmen. (??)

2) Now, if the answer is No, then a higher level knight with an Angel can't even join a 3v3 PvP? (???), coz even if he does NO splitting at all, a high level knight's troops will still take up more than 10 tiles (??).

If it's true, isn't that just 'ridiculous'? Knights are not the strongest faction already, and now, we can even use tactics and strategy vs an enemy coz we can't split our troops to more stacks?

I mean, at my level, I see them Wizards and Elves splittng their Magis, Druids and Elven bowmen to (what seems like) a a hundred stacks, and we knights can't even split our griffin to TWO stacks?

Not-a-happy knight.

Thanks in advance.

No, You cannot split griffins or another other 4 tiled unit in a group battle at level 5 in a group battle, if it were a duel this would be possible.

As you progress to a higher level, more tiles are gained, therefore, the units can fit :)

correct me if i'm wrong here
Never ever split ur griffins at PvP .. Except in hunting .. if it is necessary .. :)

If u still want to do that, then do not bring recruits .. but one stack of bowmen = suicide :) especially vs Elves ... :)
just want to say 1 thing. you are level 6....

Yes, I'm level 6, and right now, I'm given 10 tiles for PvP, I know it's not wise to split my Griffins, but I was thinking of a strategic, but the problem is, I can't even TRY it out, coz I can't split it.

Basically, if I'm facing a ton of shooters, I could split my griffns so 1 of it is only 1 stack. Since my griffin is fast (and occupy 4 tiles each), I can reach and prevent ALL (even if they are spread out) their shooters from shooting at my bowmen. Since griffins almost never last the whole battle anyway, I might as well sacrifice 1 stack of Griffin to prevent deadly enemies like Elven Bowmen and Magis from shooting, right? Even if it is 1 stack, my opponent will have to waste 1 turn and Mana just to kill off the Griffin, coz 1 stack of Griffin will usually clear the 'protectros' surrounding their shooters.

That 1 turn is enough for my Bowmen to hit at MAX (or close to it) damage AND my swordsmen (which normally takes THREE turns to reach the other side) to reach them. Also, that would give me sufficient time for my useless recruits to reach their shooters and stand next to them to prevent them from shooting.

The logic is simple, if my ONE stack of Griffin can make my enemies waste a turn and (in a wizard's case) Mana, why can't I even do it?

I hope what I just said makes sense, coz if I'm facing loads of shooters (whether in hunts or PvP), this 1 stack of Griffins will do wonders to disrupt my opponent(s) plans.
Oh, I forgot to add, if I have only 1 stack of Griffins facing a ton of shooters that are spread out, my Griffin may be able to reach and prevent shooters from 1 part of the board from shooting, BUT, my Griffin will be within MAX damage range of the other shooters who can still shoot. So that 1 stack of griffin can make the difference between winning ot losing a battle in some cases, imho. :)
Try a duel .. :), you both get the whole field .. :), 12 tiles I think.. :) you can try splitting your griff there.. :) buut as said that wont help much.. but try if you want :)
oops i meant 20 tiles
2) Now, if the answer is No, then a higher level knight with an Angel can't even join a 3v3 PvP? (???), coz even if he does NO splitting at all, a high level knight's troops will still take up more than 10 tiles (??).
