As you see, the Buffs are very good and interesting, unfortunately you can only own 3 cities so, your alliance will have to decide which ones interest the most.
For starting alliances and players, I suggest to go for Construction, Research or Collecting buffs, that will help to grow faster. But, if your alliance is top 3, then you will be more interested in power so, Ship, Jet or AFV attack and durability will be the better choice.
However, there is no best combination of cities, it will depend on each alliance needs.
Here comes the fun... To own a city you must conquer and keep it for 20 mins. If there are no contenders then it will be a piece of cake but, if you have to battle, then bellow are some strategies you might want to try.
1 - Sink the bloody carriers 😈
Sinking your enemies to keep the area clear and conquer the city in peace, is the most basic strategy, but it is the most aggressive too. Also, you might be breaking some server rules, for example: non attacking outside admiral days or during city conquest. ⚠Use it with caution and always double check the server rules before attacking an admiral.
2 - Royal attack🗡
Using server elements to attack a more powerful alliance can be an option to make them retreat. A Royal Armada hive can help you with that.
If you see the enemies carriers between a Royal Armada hive and the city in conquest, place your carriers further than them from the hive. Start to airstrike the royal bases, they will probably rally the closest carrier, if it is an enemy carrier he will be forced to move or try to defend the attack (which is very hard to do).
Royal hive should not be far from the carriers you would like to be attacked, likely no more than 400km.
3 - Defending the city
To defend the city you must have troops inside it. I recommend: send full and the strongest afvs you have, mixed ships (that means using submarines, destroyers and frigates) and good planes. That way your enemy will have it harder to conquer the city.
The trick here is to always have a second rally waiting on the base even though you are defending the city. Send the rally after each enemy attack, whether to replace the broken troops or to conquer the city again.
Don't underestimate the enemy, if he finds fresh troops each time he attacks, he will have it harder to defeat you. Keep 1 or 2 rallies ready to sail (disable auto sail) . Replace the troops after each enemy attack!
4 - Attacking a conquered city
Remember what I wrote about the most important TIP in my first post? check it here. It is imperative that you always know what your enemy troops are, to do so you can watch the ships while they are joining the rally or, if the city is already conquered, airstriking will reveal them. Use the natural enemy to take advantage over your opponent.
If the enemy is powerful, you might need to send 2 or more rallies at the same time, that way he will be overwhelmed and you will have better chances to conquer the city. If you succeed, replace your defending ships for newer ones and use the defensive strategy mentioned above.
