The recommended way to play is to check in every once in a while and re-invest your profits while you're doing other stuff.  With this strategy, there's virtually no waiting involved in playing Warzone Idle.

== Increased Money From Territories didn't increase my income as much as advertised ==
+
== Any more tips? ==
  
Not all of your money/sec comes from territories -- some of it comes from bonuses. If you get the Statistics advancement, you can easily see how much of your money comes from territories versus bonuses.
+
Once you have a bunch of AP upgrades, you should consider going back and playing previous levels again.  You'll be able to clear them much more quickly than the first time, and you can earn some extra AP this way.  Each level gives 25% less AP each time you beat it, so it's best to defeat each level a few times then move on.
  
If you don't have the Statistics advancement yet, you can get an idea of where your money is coming from by clicking around the map.  Territories and Bonuses will identify themselves in the inspect area at the bottom, and each will say how much money per second they generate.

== Cheating ==
  
== Army Camp upgrade didn't increase my armies/sec as much as advertised ==
+
Any attempts to cheat will result in your Warzone account being banned (along with any of your alts).  Do not attempt to modify the game data, modify your system clock, or automate the game in any fashion except as provided within the game's normal UI.  You have been warned.
  
Some increases are added together, not multiplied.  For example, say you're getting 100 armies per second, and you get an upgrade of 10%.  Now you're getting 110 armies per second.  Then you get another upgrade of 10%, it makes your total increase 20% bringing your armies per second to 120. But if you look only at that second upgrade in isolation, you might be confused on why 110 to 120 isn't quite 10%.  The answer is because the upgrades are added together with your previous upgrades, not multiplied.  If you get the Statistics advancement, it will unlock the Modifiers Breakdown which allows you to see details about each modifier affecting you which makes this easier to see.

== I'm out of mercenaries and all I have left to spend money on is army camps! ==
+
The app saves to the server every 10 minutes, so if you switch devices you could go back in time by up to that amount (or longer if you were playing without an internet connection). 
  
A common mistake players make is buying mercenaries too early.
+
If you need to switch the device you're playing a Warzone Idle game on, the safest way is to follow these instructions:
  
Think of it this way: You're spending some money on mercenaries and some money on army camp upgradesBuying mercenaries gives you armies immediately, but buying army camp upgrades gives you armies over timeTherefore, it's far better to do those army camp upgrades first and buy the mercenaries later, so your camp upgrades have more time to produce armiesUpgrading army camps when a level is almost complete is not an efficient plan.
+
NOTE: If your destination device is running Warzone version 5.00.6 or older, there are some bugs with switching devices.  To check the version go to the Help menu and scroll to the bottomIf you're on 5.00.6 or older, before starting the switch, you should clear your local storage on the destination deviceTo clear your storage on Android, go to Home -> Settings -> Apps -> Warzone -> Clear DataTo clear your storage on iOS, delete the app and then re-install from the app store.
  
When to buy mercenaries is a balancing act and there's no sure-fire rules on when to do it.  Ideally, you want to be purchasing your last mercenaries to conquer the last territory on the map.
+
# Make sure you're signed into your Warzone account on the current device, and that both devices have active internet connections.
 +
# On the current device, force it to save by pressing the Sync button. On the iOS and Android app, you'll find Sync by pressing the head in the top right cornerOn the website, you can force a sync with the hotkey Ctrl+Alt+G.
 +
# After activating the sync, wait a few seconds to ensure it completed, then close Warzone Idle on this device.
 +
# Run Warzone Idle on the destination device.  
  
The speed at which you progress through Warzone Idle is based on your strategy, so if things are going too slow you should try revisiting your play style.
+
After following these instructions, the destination device will automatically sync your progress from the server and you'll be at the same point on the new device.  If you need to go back to the old one, follow these instructions again.
  
== How do I gain Advancement Points (AP)? ==
+
Make sure you're never running Warzone Idle on two devices at once (this includes two tabs or browser windows).
  
You can get Advancement Points by finishing levels of Warzone Idle. You can also get Advancement Points by abandoning levels partway. When you abandon a level, Warzone will tell you how much AP you can get for your partial progress. Note that this partial AP will be subtracted from how much AP you can gain the next time you play that same level.
 
 
Be warned that using this abandoned method to decrease the final awarded points reduced the amount of the bonus you receive when paying the coins for a % bonus.
