The Town

Battles

18 battles to take the Town back from the zombies - districts, floodgates, the sewers and the Sewer Arena - with what each demands and pays.

Battles are started at the guard post, on the Day of Sloth only, and fought with the squads you bring and the defenses you build around your base. Each one names a minimum defense power and a number of squads; win by taking every enemy flag and holding them until the end.

Defense power decides whether you can start

The number next to the sword is the total from your barricades and archer towers plus the squads you bring from the Barracks. Better zombie equipment raises a squad's power; mercenaries fill the gap early on.

Battle questions

Why can't I start the battle?

Either it is not the Day of Sloth, or your defense power is below the battle's requirement. Build or upgrade barricades and towers, bring better-equipped squads, or hire mercenaries.

How do I get more squads?

Defender's Emblems unlock squad slots in the Barracks - several battles award one. Zombies only fight with armor and a pike or bow.

What are Keys for Looters for?

The sewer fights, the arena and the last two battles pay in them. They are used at the Port Club to place an order with the Looters.
