Top Lords: How to Defend Against Fang Army Invasion Attacks

To survive incoming attacks during the Fang Army Invasion in Top Lords, assign a defense-focused hero to your wall, actively reinforce targeted alliance members when your base is clear, and heal wounded units in small batches to prevent hospital overflow. Allowing your hospital to fill completely leads to permanent troop death, while failing to coordinate garrisons leaves individual bases vulnerable to heavy wave damage.

Assign Wall Garrison Heroes and Defensive Formations

Before wave marches begin, assign specialized combat heroes to your wall rather than leaving slots empty or assigned to economy heroes. Incoming enemy vanguards deal concentrated burst damage that will rapidly break through weak defenses.

Manage Hospital Capacity Between Attack Waves

Hospital management is the primary failure point during sustained invasion waves. When your hospital reaches maximum capacity, all additional wounded soldiers die permanently instead of entering triage.

1. Check hospital occupancy after every impact: Open your hospital immediately after an enemy march hits your base to confirm available bed space.
2. Heal in small batches: Do not queue your entire wounded pool into a single long timer. Heal in small increments using alliance help taps or short speedups to free up 20% to 30% of your beds before the next march lands.
3. Reserve healing resources: Keep dedicated reserves of food and timber on hand so field treatment is never delayed by resource shortages mid-event.

Rotate Reinforcements Across the Alliance

Enemy invasion marches cycle through targets rather than hitting every alliance member simultaneously. Leaving all of your troops idle in your own city when no attack is inbound leaves active targets unprotected.

• Reinforce targeted allies: When your base has no active incoming lines, send your best defensive squads to garrison alliance members currently locked by enemy marches. Reinforcements split damage across multiple squads and protect lower-defense players.
• Keep one march slot available: Always retain one free or quickly recallable march slot so you can pull troops back to your own wall the moment an attack timer locks onto your city.
• Post coordinates and capacity: Ping your base coordinates and remaining garrison space in alliance chat when targeted by elite waves.
• Garrison offline members: Send defensive squads to cover offline alliance members who are targeted repeatedly, preserving overall troop counts and securing alliance milestone points.

Recover from City Breaches

If a wave defeats your garrison, your city will catch fire and suffer an escalating defense debuff that makes subsequent hits significantly more destructive.

• Extinguish fires immediately: Use basic resource repairs to put out the blaze as soon as the attack resolves to remove the defense penalty and restore base stability.
• Rotate depleted defense squads: If your primary wall squad is exhausted, swap in a fresh secondary combat squad rather than facing the next strike with an empty barricade.
• Coordinate rally diversions: If your castle cannot survive another direct hit and allied reinforcements are unavailable, notify alliance leaders to divert incoming pressure toward heavily reinforced rally points to preserve your remaining standing army.
