What is Drafting?
It is used to replenish troops' Strength
The Draft action is a function for replenishing the troops under a Hero. After constructing a Recruiting Station, you can draft. As Drafting is key to the management of troops, please make sure to learn how to use it.
Drafting costs resources and Coins
Drafting costs resources, as well as Coins when Drafting outside Cities, such as in Fortresses. During wartime, you often find yourself unable to Draft due to a lack of Coins, so you want to stock up not only on resources but also on Coins.
Drafting takes time
The more soldiers you Draft, the longer it takes. By upgrading the Recruiting Station, you can shorten the time required for Drafting. Drafting is recommended before work, class, or sleep.
What is an Immediate Draft?
An immediate Draft allows you to finish Drafting instantly
When Drafting in Main Cities or Subcities, you can consume Reservists to immediately complete the Draft. However, the time required to Draft soldiers excluding Reservists cannot be shortened.
Reservists will be recovered over time
There is a Reservist cap. The consumed Reservists will gradually be replenished to the cap. Although there is no way to recover all Reservists at once, the Reservist Cap and the recovery speed of Reservists will be increased as the Reserves Barracks is upgraded.
Resources required for Drafting each Troop Type
The resources required for Drafting vary according to the Troop Type
The resources consumed for Drafting vary with Troop Type. In general, Drafting costs a lot of Food, so you might want to stock up on Food. You should also plan ahead and gather other resources according to your lineup.
