What is it?

North & South is a 3-minute real-time 1v1 frontline battle. Like Clash Royale, you spend supply to deploy units from cards and fight for points A, B and C.

Reach 180 points first, or lead when time runs out. Select a unit and press a point button to send that squad there.

How to play

  1. Pick a unit from the cards at the bottom (up to 8). You need enough supply for its cost.
  2. Click your rear area at the bottom (or around an allied point with no enemies) to deploy.
  3. Units march to the nearest point and fight. Stay 4 seconds inside a point to capture it; each point gives 1 score per second and extra supply.
  4. With a unit selected, press a point button A/B/C (or Q/W/E) to send that unit type there. With nothing selected, the order goes to your whole army.
  5. A point with ground units from both sides is contested: capture and scoring pause. Each unit type has a 5–8 second redeploy cooldown.

Good to know

  • Q/W/E always mean the left/middle/right point on your screen.
  • Air units cannot capture points; only ground units can.
  • New? Practice against the Easy AI in the training ground. Leave any time with the Exit game button (Shift+Esc).
