ウェスト ゲーム ビギナーズ ガイド:ワイルド ウェストで独自の歴史を作るためのヒント、コツ、戦略
むかしむかし西部に、新しい西部のゲームがありました ゲームのすべてのポップアップと鉄道で何をすべきかわからないプレーヤー。しかし、彼はいくつかのガイドを読み、人々と話し、友達を作りました。最終的に、彼は自分の同盟のリーダーになりました。国家を乗っ取ろうとさえしました。彼は成功しましたか？わかりません。
West Game は、以前に書いた別のゲーム Evony:The King's Return と非常によく似た、シティ ビルダー スラッシュ タクティクス ゲームです。 .今回は、魔法とドラゴンの幻想的な世界ではなく、野生の西の未開拓のフロンティアで戦っています.
iOS と Android の両方で利用できる West Game は、プレイヤーに多くのことを要求します。経済、軍事、外交のバランスをとる致命的で繊細な振り付けを踊ることを学ぶ必要があります。危険な敵の怒りを避けながら、強力な友達を作る必要があります。しかし、恐れる必要はありません。この West Game 初心者向けガイド をまとめました。 新しいプレーヤーが砂の中に足場を見つけるのを助け、おそらく十分に長く生き残って、数えられる力になる.
バブルを最大化
同盟を確立しておらず、同盟を守るための軍隊が事実上ないため、新しいプレーヤーは簡単に選ぶことができます。この問題を軽減するために、各新規プレイヤーには 3 日間の保護シールドが与えられ、その間、攻撃や偵察を行うことはできず、他のプレイヤーから攻撃や偵察を受けることもできません。これは、強固な基盤を構築するのに 3 日間しか与えられないことも意味します。 .
このシールドは、タウンホールがレベル 6 に達すると期限切れになります .そのことを念頭に置いて、シールドが上がったときに備えておく必要がありますが、タウンホールのアップグレードを急いではいけません。脆弱なままになる可能性があるからです。
準備にもっと時間が必要な場合、ゲームからしばらく離れて過ごす予定がある場合、または単に偏執的である場合は、ゴールドでシールドを追加購入できます。ただし、これには費用がかかりますのでご注意ください。
この町は十分に大きくない…
…というわけで拡大中です。あなたの町は、上記の資源生成施設以外にもいくつかの施設で構成されています。これらの建物のそれぞれが何をしてくれるかを知ることは、何を建てるべきか、そしていくつ建てるべきかを選択するのに役立ちます.
タウンホール
市役所 あなたの権威の座として機能します。ゲームプレイに関しては、タウンホールは実際には何も生成しませんが、他の建物のより高いアップグレードレベルのロックを解除するためのゲートとして機能します.さらに、市庁舎をアップグレードすると、より多くの軍隊を戦場に配置することもできます。
倉庫
倉庫 あなたのリソースが備蓄されている場所です。さらに重要なことに、倉庫は、他のプレイヤーがあなたの町を攻撃したときにリソースが略奪されるのを防ぎ、少なくとも再建するものが残っていることを保証します.倉庫は保護しないことに注意してください レベル 21 までシルバー !
鍛冶屋
鍛冶屋 保安官の装備を鍛造する場所です。これにより、トレーニング、研究、建設時間の短縮などのちょっとしたボーナスが得られます .クラフト素材をできるだけ早く使い切るか、より良いティアとテクノロジーのロックを解除するのを待つかは、あなた次第です。
鍛冶屋がアイドル状態の場合、泡が鍛冶屋の上に表示されます。
アカデミー
アカデミー は、West Game での生活を楽にするさまざまな技術を研究できる非常に重要な建物です。
研究ツリーは、経済学、戦闘、罠、保安官、 に分かれています。 と 鍛造 カテゴリ。これらのさまざまなツリーのそれぞれは、受動的な改善を提供するか、あなたとあなたの町に新しいもののロックを解除します.常に何かを研究していることを確認してください!
鍛冶屋と同様に、アカデミーの上の吹き出しは、それがアイドル状態であり、機能させる必要があることを示しています。
大使館
大使館 同盟を結んでいる場合、重要な建物です。資源の輸送に受動的なボーナスを提供し、増援の能力を高め、増援の行軍サイズを増やして、ユニットを送り込む必要がある回数を減らします。
市場
大使館は物資の輸送に受動的なボーナスを提供しますが、市場 実際に行う場所です。この構造により、同盟メンバーから資源を送ったり受け取ったりすることができます。また、市場をアップグレードすると、税率が下がり、一度に維持できる輸送ルートの数が増えます。
セントリー ステーション
セントリー ステーション スカウトとアウトライダーを収容し、アップグレードするとスカウト機能が向上します。 This handy building can let you see, at a glance, if there are any imminent attacks on your settlement, as well as if anyone is sending you anything.
Higher levels of Sentry Stations reveal more intel – what area is going to be hit, how long before the attackers arrive, the name of your attacker, their army composition and size, and if they have a hero. In addition to all these, level 21 Sentry Stations vastly improve the efficiency of your traps, giving a large 25% attack bonus !
Defence Factory
The Defence Factory is where you construct traps to deter attackers. Each kind of trap is good against a certain unit, and this works great in tandem with the Sentry Station – if you know what your enemy’s army is composed of, you can rush an effective defense.
This building is also where you assign heroes to town defense duties. If your heroes aren’t doing anything, you can put them here to assist with keeping your town safe.
Barracks
The Barracks is where you whip your men into fighting shape. Unlike other games in the same vein, you can actually build multiple Barracks. The question is should you?
Each individual Barracks only increases the amount of units you can train at once. You cannot train a new set of units in each Barracks that you own . I tried that and discovered it the hard way. Also, there’s really no point in building multiple Barracks unless you really want that troop defense bonus that comes into play at level 21. However, that brings us to…
Cabins (Again)
Yup, Cabins again, so important that they were mentioned twice.理由？ Have a look at the image above – at level 21, cabins give attack bonuses to your troops . As mentioned earlier, their primary purpose is to produce Silver for your war machine, but Cabins also give a decent training speed boost to your units.
Hospital
When your troops inevitable get wounded, they’ll need a Hospital to recover and get back on their feet. Healing isn’t automatic, so make sure you tap the Hospital’s heal button to start working on your wounded. Better hospitals not only increase the amount of wounded they can treat at once, but also give your units a life bonus at higher levels .
Monument
For some reason, dead isn’t dead in the wild west, and the Monument is proof positive of this. The Monument allows you to revive some of your fallen units, allowing you to bounce back after a failed attack or a pitched defense.
Church
The Church is where you presumably give captured enemy heroes their last rights before executing them. Executing enemy heroes gives your town a huge 24 hour bonus that provides a two-part bonus:one that scales off your town’s base values, and another that scales off the executed hero’s stats.
Build Your Economy
Like many similar games, West Game requires you to establish a resource base before you can stake your claim anywhere. There are many ways to earn resources, and you will need a lot of them, so here are some of the easiest ways to gather materials for your journey.
Passive Income Buildings
The easiest way to generate resources is to devote buildings to producing them. West Game has 5 main resources – 4 of which are grain, logs, rubble, and iron. Farms can produce grain, Logging Camps can make logs, Quarries generate rubble, and Mines make iron. And don’t worry – resources are deposited directly into your stockpile.
By upgrading these buildings, you not only increase each building’s production, but you also raise the cap of how much of those materials you can store. Most basic buildings can be upgraded for free a couple of times – so do this immediately with your resource generation buildings!
To build a resource building, tap one of the plots of land below the railway tracks that split your town in two. Everything south is for the exclusive use of resource buildings, so build away.
Silver Mining
The fifth resource that you’ll need is silver . Gathering silver requires building and upgrading Cabins instead of the 4 resource buildings. Unlike those 4, cabins need to be built in the town proper – that is to say, above the railroad tracks. On the other hand, cabins also provide valuable passive bonuses, such as decreased unit training time and giving your sheriff some exp when built.
Occupy Resource Nodes
Resource nodes on the world map are a great way to augment your income.
By sending men to resource nodes, they can gather materials that they’ll bring back to your town when they’re finished. As a rule of thumb, higher tier units can carry more resources, so they’ll be able to gather and deplete a node much faster.
These nodes are considered neutral territory, so while no one can truly lay claim to them, you might be attacked by other players while your men are gathering. Rules and etiquette will differ from server to server, so if in doubt, ask senior players what your server’s policies are.
“Gambling” at The Casino
Unlike what it may sound like, the casino doesn’t involve any betting on your part. Instead, you get to play three card monte – you’ll be shown 3 cards, and after they’re shuffled around a bit, you need to pick the card with the highest value, with 2 as the lowest, and the joker as the highest. Win, and you’ll get stuff like speed-ups, Gold, or resources.
Each round will consume chips, which you get for free every day depending on the level of your town center.
Socializing at the Saloon
Every wanderer’s first stop is the saloon , if we’re going by Spaghetti Westerns. And since they’re already in town, you might be able to entice them with a job…
The saloonserves as a recruitment hub for new heroes. It’s here that you spend your common and advanced keys to unlock hero chests to get hero shards. You also get 1 free roll per day on the advanced chest (24 hour cooldown) and 5 free ones on the common chest (5 minute cooldown). Apart from hero shards, these chests also drop hero-related items, such as insights.
Fight Outlaws
You can pick fights with the giant entities on the world map – and they’re really more like pinatas, waiting to be beaten up so they can drop some sweet, sweet loot. These outlaws are one of the best ways to amass experience points for your sheriffs.
Note that fighting outlaws first requires you to research the appropriate Wild Hunt Mastery level at the academy. To fight level 1 outlaws and wild animals, you’ll need Wild Hunt Mastery I, and so on.
Fighting outlaws or hunting wild animals doesn’t require an entire army. Instead, you’ll be asked to send some of your heroes to perform the task for you. Each time they’re sent out, they spend some stamina to damage the target, all while netting prizes. While whittling a target away to get tons of drops is a viable strategy, make sure to secure the kill to get a gift box, which you and your allies can partake of.
Sometimes you’ll require an army to attack a neutral stack, at which point the game will prompt you to select what units and heroes to bring. You’ll also need to spend ammunition to attack these mobs, which can be seen in your Sheriff menu. These are generic battles, with some of your units possibly dying or getting wounded. However, they also give resources and time boosts, so they’re well worth doing.
Duel Yard
The duel yard lets you play a shooting minigame to get more rewards. The minigame isn’t particularly difficult – you just need to tap on the fire button whenever the circular gauge turn red (roughly the last quarter of the circle). And don’t worry about them firing at you as you’re effectively immortal. It’s just for show.
Museum Rewards
The museum commemorates milestones completed by your state, or server. These are timed events that require every player in the server to complete a specific task, such as hunting Butcher Brothers or upgrading the Town Hall to a certain level. The museum gives large sums of gold, so be sure to pop in when you see a bubble above the museum!
Civilians
From time to time, civilians will show up beside the railroad, begging for help. By tapping them, you gain buffs that increase your resource production (among other things), and you get to watch your men fight Daly’s gang. The shootout that ensures doesn’t actually impact your strength or resources, so be sure to help civilians whenever you can.
If civilians are present, an animated pile of coins will appear in the lower left of the screen, beside the world map button.
Train Deliveries
The train that occasionally pulls into your town also gives you small amounts of resources or boosts whenever you tap it. An animated chest will appear near the world map button if the train is in town and has something for you.
Quests
West Game has multiple quests that can be categorized by type.
Growth Quests can be completed daily, and give a small amount of resources on completion. These are mundane tasks that you’ll be doing anyway, such as training units of a specific type or donating to your alliance, so they’re really more of a minor bonus.
Each completed growth quest also gives some activity points , which fill a meter above the growth quest screen. As you accrue activity points, you’ll unlock chests that you can tap on to gain even more rewards, with the final tier giving out insight and keys for common heroes.
Town Quests serve as developmental milestones for your town. From building your first cabin to raising your first army, quests are there to ease you into the game’s flow and give you rewards for completing them. Your advisor can also get pretty pushy with these, so I’d recommend finishing them as fast as possible so you can actually play the game.
Daily, alliance, and VIP quests simply require a time investment to be completed. The downside is that there’s a limited number of these per day, so make sure you complete all of them before they time out.
If you’d like to prioritize certain rewards, you can tap on the poster (not the button) to see what items you get. You can refresh these to get a new set of quests for 1000 gold, which isn’t really worth it – there are far more important things for you to spend your gold on.
7 Day Boot Camp
While we’re on the topic of quests, new players get an introductory week of quests via the 7 day boot camp イベント。 This event gives out a lot of prizes, and isn’t particularly hard to complete. You only get the opportunity to clear this once, so be sure to nab everything you can.
Gold Bounties
Gold bounties are long-term quests that offer a sum of gold for completing certain goals. To check the current gold bounties, tap the wanted poster on the lower left of the screen, near the world map button.
You’ll not only get stars for completing each star in each task, but you’ll also get a large lump sum of gold for achieving enough goals. To put that in perspective, nabbing 10 stars gets you a 500 gold bonus, while 30 stars gives an extra 3,000. Aim high!
Raise A Posse
Always treat war as an inevitability, not a possibility. Whether you want to go on the offensive or just want to be left alone, you’ll need units to keep you and your town safe.
Unit Types
There are four unit types in West Game – infantry, ranged, cavalry, and artillery. Each of these units is good and bad against other types.
Infantry are close-ranged fighters armed with revolvers. They’re strong against both cavalry and artillery, but bad against ranged units and traps.
Ranged units are armed with rifles, allowing them to fight from a greater distance. They’re good against infantry and artillery, but suffer against cavalry and traps.
Cavalry use horses and superior mobility to overcome their lack of range. These swift units are great against ranged units and artillery, but bad against infantry and traps.
Artillery use powerful mounted guns to crush foes from a distance. They’re effective at demolishing traps, but are bad against everything else.
Unit Stats
Unfortunately, West Game doesn’t have actual numbers in its unit stats page . Unit stats are instead represented by stars, which give a rough idea of how the unit performs in each category. But in general, lower tier units have less attack, defense, and life, but have higher speed compared to high tier units .
While West Game doesn’t have enough information to make detailed comparisons, it does helpfully list some other things on the unit stat board, such as overall bonuses, upkeep cost, troop load (how many resources each unit of this type can carry), and what resources they can harvest.
Unlocking higher tier units requires the appropriate program to be researched at the Academy. As you tech up, your enemies will too, so always be prepared to defend with the highest-tier units you can muster.
Invest In Your Sheriff And Heroes
Your formal title within West Game is the Boss .
The Sheriff
You can easily confuse this for the Sheriff , who is your main representative and serves as the governor of your town. There are three ways to invest in your Sheriff – giving them gear, learning skills, and using skins.
The Most Decked-Out Guns in the West
Sheriffs have 7 slots for equipment, the last 2 of which are unlocked as you upgrade your Blacksmith. These provide powerful bonuses to your Sheriff. Try to fill out each slot as soon as you can – any bonus is better than no bonus at all. And if you’re worried about equipment becoming obsolete, you can upgrade them to the next tier, at the cost of some silver and materials.
Equipment can further be upgraded by inlaying Gems into them. Gems provide more passive bonuses on top of what the base equipment already provides.
Earning Spurs
As the Sheriff gains levels, they also get skill points, which are used to buy powerful passive boosts in the Sheriff’s skill tree. Sheriffs possess two skill trees – one for town and army development, and another one for hunting wild animals and outlaws. It’s important to note that skill points are not exclusive; if you gain 1 skill point, you can allocate 1 point in both trees.
Skinning for Skins
Sheriffs also have different skins which offer different passive bonuses. The default skin “Joe” as well as the unlockable “Annica” one do not confer any passive bonuses. To unlock other skins, you’ll have to search around for pieces of those skins, then exchange for the skin once you have enough. If you don’t feel like putting in the legwork, you can also rent a skin for a limited time via skin packs that are occasionally put up for sale.
Your Heroes
Heroes are important figures in your town. They are prominent characters that can supervise your town and assist in a lot of things. If you missed the section above, you can get hero shards from the Saloon, or acquire them in other ways, such as clearing quests.
Leading The Charge
One of the most important things your heroes can do is to lead your armies whenever you attack Butcher Brothers or other players.
If you take a look at your hero’s stats, you’ll notice they also have a force and march size stat. These stats denote how much power they add to their army, and how big a bonus they give to the army’s max size.
Triggered Skills
Hero skills activate automatically depending on the situation. Some skills activate only in combat, and provide a bonus to the armies they lead. Other skills are completely passive and are in effect for as long as the hero who has them is alive.
You can make skills even stronger by increasing their level. This is done by using insights , which you can find in rewards for quests, killing neutral mobs, or more commonly, the Saloon.
Getting Stronger
By increasing the rank of your heroes, you not only unlock new skills, but you also give them improved stats, vastly improving their efficiency.
To increase the star rank of your heroes, you’ll need to gather enough medals of that hero, then use the hero interface to increase their rank. The higher the rank, the bigger the bonuses – but the more medals they’ll need. Once again, you’ll want to head to the Saloon to open your free chests, since they’re a constant (and free, and reliable) way to get medals for boosting your heroes.
Form An Alliance
Alliances are a great two-way street:you provide the alliance with help and resources, and in turn, you get a bunch of people who have your back in a fight. In the no-rules land of the wild west, you’ll need to seize every opportunity you can get, so join an alliance as soon as you can .
Alliance Missions
Alliance missions represent large goals that you and your alliance members can work together to complete. These are normally things that you would be doing in the course of the game, such as training units or constructing buildings. However, each time you or an alliance member fulfills that condition, you’ll contribute to your alliance’s goal – and once you complete certain thresholds, everyone who participated gets a reward . Not bad!
Alliance Territory
Once you have enough members and resources, your alliance leader or other higher ranking members can elect to start claiming territory for your alliance. This begins with an alliance fortress , which marks an area as belonging to you and your alliance.
As you progress, you’ll unlock an alliance warehouse , where everyone can deposit and take resources as needed, as well as special alliance resource nodes which are far more effective than the nodes that spawn in the wild.
Alliance Research
Once your alliance has settled down and created its fortress, members will gain access to the alliance research tree. These are long-term projects that need a lot of investment to complete for relatively minor boosts. The good thing here is that everyone in your alliance can contribute to their completion. Since these need so much time and effort to complete, try coordinating in your alliance chat to see what project everyone would like to focus on .
Alliance Help
Alliance members can request help on any project they’re currently undertaking, whether that’s training units, building new infrastructure, or just healing people. All members of the alliance can help with these projects, reducing their timers by a certain amount. It’s important to note that there’s a cap of how many times you can be helped in a single project. It costs you absolutely nothing to help others – just a tap of a button and presto.
Alliance Store
As you do stuff to help your alliance, you’ll gain loyalty points , which can be traded at the alliance store for some nifty things, like VIP points, 8 hour town shields, buffs, or even speed boosts . It’s important to note that these points aren’t tied to an alliance; even if you get kicked out for whatever reason, you’ll still have all the loyalty points from your previous efforts.
Aces Up The Sleeve
There’s a bunch of other tips we’ve compiled that don’t really fit anywhere else, so here they are.
Very Important Pardners
We’ve underlined the importance of saving your Gold for things that really matter. While it’s up to you to spend your Gold however you wish, the best Gold investment you can make as a new player is to upgrade your VIP level . To do that, tap the VIP button beside your portrait in the upper left, then tap the plus button by the bar.
By raising your VIP level, you’ll increase the production rate of your resources, as well as gain access to more quests and increase the threshold for getting free building upgrades. Note that you will need to activate your VIP perks via another item or a package for these to take effect .
The Good, The Bad, The Elite
If you don’t like the idea of spending your gold on VIP levels, you can also opt to use it to increase your elite levels and perks .
Not only do you get a free elite chest depending on your current elite level, you also gain access to elite trades , which let you turn in common resources for rare ones – and all at a discount, too! However, the selection of goods resets weekly and is restricted by your elite level. If you see something you like in the store’s rotation, it might be a good idea to spend some gold increasing your elite level.
Save Your Time Boosts
With how many time boosts you get in West Game, it’s very hard to resist the temptation of boosting every little thing you’re doing in town. I’m here to tell you right now – do this judiciously. Many higher-tier buildings, unit training, or upgrades can span multiple hours, and in the case of the Town Hall, days. By saving your time boosts, you can skirt or even entirely bypass these lengthy time gates .
The Map Has A Search Function
And it’s really handy. To access the map’s search function, tap the telescope in the upper right panel. This will let you pinpoint Butcher Brothers and wild animals of a specific level, as well as resource nodes.
Draw!
The sun’s high in the sky, the tumbleweeds are billowing, and a shadow casts long, ominous shadows on main street. It’s high noon, boss. Are you ready to embrace your destiny?
Well, we certainly hope you are. That concludes our West Game beginner’s guide, and we hope you learned something here that will help you survive once your shields go down, and maybe help you in your journey to state governor.
