Grepolis battles compare attack strength with the defender’s matching defence value. The game distinguishes blunt, sharp and ranged attacks, so unit choice matters as much as troop count.
Match the weapon type
Inspect the enemy’s reported defensive profile and choose an attack that targets a weaker value. Defenders should avoid relying entirely on one defensive specialty when the incoming weapon is unknown.
Account for modifiers
Wall level, divine powers, morale and random luck can change the outcome. Reports may be stale by the time your attack arrives. Use the Agora battle simulator with the best available information and compare more than one scenario.
