Welcome to The Last Knights.
This is an online strategy / rpg game where you are an officer in the army of one of 61 different countries all over the world in the colonial times. You build your army while climbing the ranks, getting stronger while your soldiers and yourself gain experience and your army grows larger in size. Once you rank high enough you can unite lower officers (other players) and attack one of the other countries.
This game is a long running massive multiplayer online game where you are part of the national and international military balance and politics. Your goals are first to improve your own army, but also to defend the territory of your country and make it the leading power in the world.
Your attacks are only limited by the soldiers that get injured in your fights. If they get injured you will have to wait for them to get healed some points every 30 minutes. You can miss a few soldiers of your army but if too many are injured the others and yourself run a greater risk in the next battle.
This is very similar to RISK - the boardgame. If you like RISK, I'm sure you'll enjoy this game. Each country is divided into several cities, and there are 61 countries to choose from when you start. Read the FAQ thoroughly and you may start in the FUN server to learn before going to PRO server.
Read up on these first as well, so that you know some of the basics:

General Rule:
1. Each cash and healing tick is 30min, at xx:15, xx:45 respectively.
2. You need about 8 commanders to invade a neutral city, cos basically city garrisons defend themselves even if no players are present in this town.
3. Every promotion gives you a free soldier. This stops when you are a Brigadier.
4. At the start of the game, 5 Brigadiers are needed to vote for a Leader who then chooses a HC.
5. Only the HC of a country can declare war on a country they are not yet at war with, provided the country hasn't initiated another war at the moment.
6. Only a Lt-Colonel and above can post in the forum and send messages to all.
7. Only Generals have access to HQ, if you have lvl 1 access. If you die/country is defeated and rejoin another country, you are lvl 2 access.
8. When units stocks are empty, refill is 4x per day. They refill at 0:00, 6:00, 12:00, and 18:00.
9. Cities wage is once per day at 0615. Not sure what's the formula.
Here I will list down a few tips so that you can follow:
1. When starting off, pick a higher HP unit like halbs. These are good for leveling (meaning climb up your ranks). Essentially they are less prone to injury which will
2. Avoid units with RSTR in the beginning.
3. Dont promote units past the following:
Dont promote past app until 3rd LT
Dont promote past adv until Major
Dont promote past vet till Major general
4. If you want a ranking army start picking up healers between 3rd LT and Lt col and make sure to add minimum of 15 maximum of 24 by Field Marshall.
5. The best armies either use high hp (example rifleman) or low hp (fighters) and not a combination of the 2. A half fighter and half rifleman army sucks.
6. Dont be afraid to lose the freeby at the next promotion if it doesnt work well with your army.
7. The secret is to managae your income by holding off promotions and maximizing the total number of units you have. The more units the better. Nothing worse then an army at the hard cap with low unit count.
Recommendations:
Use this formation if you want to win at PvP arty:cav:inf
- 0:0:ALL
or
- Arty:0:Healers
