To secure high kill counts during the one-hour Altar Conquest event in Last War Season 6, keep your primary squads constantly engaged while avoiding total troop wipeouts in your infirmary. High-spending opponents and top-tier players (such as Mike Steel) can quickly destroy isolated squads, so your immediate action is to coordinate simultaneous marches with your alliance and cycle quick troop heals rather than fighting alone.
Combat Tactics and Alliance March Timing
The Altar Conquest event takes place across a strict one-hour battle window where passive defense leads to low kill totals. Top-performing players (such as Frizen) achieve high kill numbers—sometimes exceeding 5 million kills—by keeping their marches moving continuously between active combat zones and contested objectives.
When engaging dominant, high-power accounts on the field, avoid sending isolated attacks. Follow these march and timing rules:
- Simultaneous Marches: Coordinate with alliance members to launch marches that strike the Altar at the exact same second. Simultaneous hits force high-power enemies to split their target focus instead of wiping out single squads one by one.
- Defensive Hero Synergy: Build your primary PvP squad with heroes that apply damage-mitigation debuffs or protective shields. These defensive skills help your heroes survive the initial burst damage from severe account-power gaps.
- Target Selection: Focus on cycling through active skirmishes near the Altar rather than sitting in static defensive positions, ensuring your squads generate continuous combat points throughout the hour.
Managing Infirmary Downtime and Squad Presets
Sustaining high combat output over sixty minutes requires strict resource and infirmary discipline. Losing a main squad completely stops your kill generation until your troops recover.
- Infirmary Capacity Monitoring: Track your infirmary capacity during every skirmish. Pull squads back for rapid healing with speed-ups before your hospital maxes out and causes permanent troop losses.
- Preset Swapping: Use lower-cost or faster march presets to clear standard targets quickly. Save your primary PvP squad specifically for contesting the central Altar or responding to high-value threats.
- Consumable Preparation: Stockpile healing speed-ups and battle resources prior to the start of the conquest window to prevent forced downtime.
Strategic Positioning: Center Control vs. Flank Harassment
Battlefield positioning dictates whether you act as the primary objective anchor or a mobile harassment squad during the capture event.
| Positioning Strategy | Primary Role | Tactical Execution | Recommended Condition |
|---|---|---|---|
| Center Control | Objective Defense & Kill Zone | Hold the central Altar point to force enemy squads to march into your defense. | Your alliance controls the objective and can sustain heavy direct combat. |
| Flank Harassment | Perimeter Disruption & Target Farming | Strike the edges of enemy formations to pick off distracted or isolated marchers. | Your alliance is outmatched in raw power or attempting to reclaim momentum. |
If your alliance holds the center, maintain tight defensive positioning and force incoming enemies to hit your reinforced zone. If your alliance loses control of the center, pivot immediately to flank harassment. Attacking incoming enemy units from the side breaks up their formation and allows your squad to farm kills safely without taking full direct hits from the opponent's strongest players.

Good guide for Last War players. The strategy part was useful.
Can you add more details about strategy in a future update?
This saved me time in the early game.
The explanation is clear, especially for beginners.
