During Week 1 of the Goldvein War event in Last War, maximize event points and unit survival by pre-positioning your base near active conflict zones with alliance teleports, splitting squad deployments across multiple targets, and aligning attacks with alliance coordinate markers.
Map Positioning and Squad Deployment
Managing march distance and squad distribution minimizes travel delays and protects forces from total losses during early territorial contests.
- Base Pre-Positioning: Relocate your base close to active conflict zones using alliance teleports before contested nodes open.
- Staggered Marches: Split squads across several smaller nodes rather than committing all forces to a single target to limit casualty risks if an engagement fails.
- Movement Buffs: Apply speed-boosting movement buffs during active contests to capture high-value tiles before opposing factions establish defenses.
- Tactical Retraction: Recall troops immediately if a node becomes heavily contested by superior enemy forces to preserve units for counter-attacks.
Identifying Nodes and Managing Squad Stamina
Event map zones vary by yield multiplier and risk. Balancing high-value targets with squad stamina keeps your forces operational throughout the week.
| Node Type | Score Yield | Risk Level | Action Strategy |
|---|---|---|---|
| High-Yield Multiplier Nodes | High score multiplier | High contest risk | Approach with alliance backup or during low enemy activity; hold even briefly to accumulate bonus points. |
| Standard Nodes | Lower point return | Low to moderate risk | Send secondary squads or split forces to maintain steady points without risking full wipes. |
To manage combat fatigue and repair costs during heavy skirmishes:
- Monitor squad stamina and unit repair status after every engagement.
- Rotate secondary squads onto the map while primary squads recover in base.
- Disengage from heavily fortified positions or superior enemy players to target undefended secondary nodes instead.
Coordinating Alliance Objectives
Individual actions yield lower overall points than synchronized group attacks. Aligning moves with your alliance secures central zones and protects alliance perimeters.
- Target Markers: Direct marches exclusively to map markers set by alliance leadership.
- Coordinated Push Windows: Reserve major squad pushes and teleports for designated alliance attack times to capture central high-yield sectors.
- Perimeter Defense: Operating near alliance members prevents isolated squads from being targeted by concentrated enemy forces.

I wish I had read this before upgrading the wrong thing.
I tried this today and it worked better than my old setup.
This helped me understand base building much better.
This saved me time in the early game.
