Top Lords: How to Get Mulan for Free in Iron Fang Intercept

To unlock Mulan for free in Top Lords, earn her hero shards through the Iron Fang Intercept event by clearing plunder score milestones and purchasing shards from the event shop. Because daily intercept attempts are strictly limited, you must focus your daily march quota on high-tier moving supply wagons rather than standard transports to gather enough points and event currency before the rotation ends.

How to Earn Mulan Shards

Free-to-play recruitment of Mulan does not require premium summons. Instead, you earn shards across three distinct event mechanics during the plunder cycle:

To reach the higher milestone chests containing guaranteed Mulan shards, complete your daily plunder quota every day of the event. Each successful raid awards points based on the transport's tier and the volume of cargo your squad extracts.

In the event shop, spend all earned intercept tokens on Mulan shards first. Do not divert these tokens into general speedups, gathering supplies, or standard recruitment items until you have cleared every Mulan shard available in the shop for that cycle.

Carriage Tier Priorities

Iron Fang convoys spawn across the kingdom map in four rarity tiers. Attacking low-tier wagons consumes your limited daily attempts while yielding minimal points and currency.

• Gold and Purple Carriages (Primary Targets): Elite convoys carry the highest concentration of event tokens, milestone points, and direct shard drop chances. Dedicate your attempts to these targets whenever they travel within range.
• Blue and Green Carriages (Fallback Only): Standard transports possess weak NPC defenses but grant poor rewards. Only attack these during the final hours before daily reset if map competition prevents you from reaching elite wagons.
• Remaining Cargo Check: Always inspect a wagon's remaining cargo before issuing a march order. If an elite transport has already been plundered down to a low percentage, your squad will extract little loot, resulting in a wasted attempt.

Elite wagons travel with stronger NPC escorts. Deploy your primary combat squad rather than secondary gathering units to ensure you defeat the escort cleanly and secure the loot without unnecessary troop casualties.

Convoy Interception and March Timing

Iron Fang transports move continuously along designated roadways rather than standing on static tiles. Managing your march vectors and timing is critical to securing loot before rival players drain the carriage.

1. Intercept Ahead on the Route: Never issue an attack order from behind a moving wagon. Chasing a target extends travel time and allows closer lords to empty the wagon before you arrive. Instead, select a point ahead of the carriage's path to intersect it at a forward roadway coordinate.
2. Attack During Off-Peak Hours: Elite carriages generate intense competition on active servers. Schedule your daily plunder sessions during early morning or late night hours when fewer lords are scanning the roads.
3. Shorten March Distances: Position your city near major transit corridors or within active alliance territory to reduce travel lines to newly spawned transports.
