To maximize rewards in the bi-weekly Top Lords Transport Convoy Raid event, deploy fast cavalry squads to intercept purple (rare) and gold (legendary) supply wagons before rival players reach them. Because raids consume limited stamina or daily attempt tokens, attacking the correct targets along their travel routes determines your total haul.

How the Convoy Raid Event Works

The Transport Convoy Raid recurs every two weeks in Top Lords. During the event window, NPC supply wagons spawn at regional departure strongholds and move across map roads toward fortified destination gates.

Wagons travel continuously in real time. Your squad must physically intercept the moving escort before it reaches its destination gate or is defeated by another player. Defeating the escort guards yields resource packs, speedups, and event milestone progress.

Convoy Tiers and Target Priorities

Supply wagons spawn across four rarity tiers, visible by their color-coded banners. Lower-tier wagons offer minimal returns while still consuming your limited raid attempts.

Reserve your raid attempts for rare and legendary carts. Only attack green or blue carts during the final minutes of an event session if unspent attempts are about to expire.

Avoiding Failed Raids and Wasted Attempts

The primary failure point in the Transport Convoy Raid is dispatching a march toward a wagon that cannot be intercepted in time. If another player defeats the escort or the cart enters a safe destination gate before your army arrives, your squad aborts the attack and returns home empty-handed. This wastes transit time and leaves your troops unavailable while other high-tier targets pass by.

Apply these checks before sending an attack march:

  • Check remaining distance: Avoid targeting any wagon that has completed more than 75% of its route toward a destination gate, unless your castle sits immediately adjacent to that gate.
  • Inspect converging march lines: Watch the map for troop movement lines heading toward your chosen target. If multiple marches will arrive ahead of yours, choose a different wagon.
  • Avoid ongoing battles: Do not send an army to a wagon displaying an active combat icon. Battles resolve quickly, and late arrivals do not receive duplicate first-clear rewards.

March Speed Setup

March velocity directly impacts your raid success rate. Slow march compositions allow competing players to claim targets before you can reach them.

  1. Deploy cavalry leaders: Build dedicated raid teams around high-mobility cavalry commanders rather than slow-moving infantry or siege units.
  2. Equip mobility gear: Use equipment and commander talents that grant march speed bonuses before launching attacks.
  3. Use speedup boosts on gold carts: When targeting an uncontested legendary convoy across longer distances, apply a 25% or 50% march acceleration item to guarantee arrival before rivals intercept the route.

Alliance Territory Coordination

Coordinating with alliance members prevents teammates from competing for the same supply carts. Share convoy coordinates in alliance chat and assign targets based on proximity to minimize wasted marches. Grouping member castles near major road intersections reduces travel distance, allowing your team to clear purple and gold wagons across the realm efficiently.
