Camp Building
The Camp Building is your strategic headquarters for managing troops, launching attacks, and tracking military operations in the game. From attacking enemy cities and Artemis Camps to sending protectors to allies, the Camp is where you plan and execute your moves. This guide explains the Camp’s five menus, how to use them, and the error messages you might encounter.
Accessing the Camp
You must construct the Camp Building in your city via the Town Hall to access its features.
If you try to attack (by clicking the Attack button on the map) without a Camp, you’ll see an error: “You do not have a Camp building.”
Okay: Closes the error menu.
Build: Takes you to the Town Hall’s construction menu to build the Camp.
Camp Menus
The Camp has five menus, each with a specific role in managing your military:
Troop Stats
This page provides a detailed overview of your troops in the current city.
Layout:
Displays 12 troop types (left to right: Infantry, Swordsman, Maceman, Archer, King, Horseman, Knight, Spy, Battering Ram, Catapult, Balloon, Advisor). The Name label under icons is removed.
Three rows:
Row 1 (Troops in City): Troops built in this city, available for attacks or other missions.
Row 2 (Troops Outside City): Troops sent on any mission (attacks, protectors, etc.), regardless of type or purpose.
Row 3 (Protector Troops): Reinforcements received from other players or your other cities, counted as protectors (even if from your own cities).
Protector Cards:
Below the troop table, dynamic cards appear for each city sending or receiving protectors.
Each card includes:
The number of troops.
The name of the sending/receiving city.
A Return button to recall or return protectors.
Separate cards are created for each city interaction (e.g., one card per city sending protectors, even if multiple cities are involved).
Clicking Return prompts: “Do you want to return the troops?”
Yes: Returns the troops instantly (deducted from the receiver, added to the sender).
Cancel: Closes the prompt.
No close button is included.
Both the sender and receiver can use the Return button to manage protectors.

Ongoing Attacks and Returns
This page tracks your active attacks and returning troops for the current city.

A Return button appears only on cards for your attacks or your returning troops.
Clicking Return prompts: “Do you want to cancel the attack? Warning: 50 GEMS will be deducted for the cost.”

Cancel: Closes the prompt.

Notes:
Cards are removed from this menu once troops arrive or return.
Saved Cities
This page stores cities you’ve saved for quick access to attack.
Saving Cities:
On the map, click a city and select the Save button to create a card in this menu.
Cards are saved in the Camp of the city you were using when you saved the target (e.g., saving a city from City A’s map adds it to City A’s Camp).
Card Details:
Each card shows the target city’s name and two buttons:
Sword (Attack): Takes you to Page 3 with the target city’s name auto-filled, ready to configure an attack.
Cross (Delete): Removes the card from the saved list.
The Hat button is removed, leaving only Sword and Cross.
Notes:
Saved cities streamline repeated attacks on key targets.
Deleting a card is immediate, with no confirmation prompt.
Key Notes

Troop Clarity: Page 2’s troop breakdown (in city, outside, protectors) and protector cards make it easy to manage your forces and alliances.
Attack Safeguards: Error messages in Page 3 prevent mistakes (e.g., attacking protected cities or allies) while offering options to proceed if desired.
Real-Time Tracking: Page 4’s color-coded progress bars and Fast Return feature give you control over your attacks, with Gems providing a strategic instant-recall option.
Saved Cities Efficiency: Page 5 simplifies targeting frequent opponents, saving time in attack planning.
Protector Flexibility: Both senders and receivers can return protectors, ensuring dynamic alliance coordination.
