Tactile Wars tips and tricks

Some quick tips to get you started in Tactile Wars and ensure victory on the battlefield!

Tactile Wars is a new strategy game for mobile devices. The game finds players in the roles of a disembodied finger commanding their troops in an attempt to paint their enemies with the player’s color. The game is a mixture of several other mobile games with elements of tower defense, defending your base from attacking enemies, and laying siege to your foes.


New to the game? Fret not! These tips will help you out with commanding your troops, attacking your foes, and of course, defending your base. Let’s get started, fellow mobile generals.

Attack often!

First things first, you need to be aggressive in Tactile Wars. If you aren’t tweaking your defenses and maximizing your defense potential, you should be attacking. The game has no energy or stamina system, and in my experience, you seem to able to attack numerous times in a day. I have yet to hit a point where the game forbids me from attacking.

Because you get coins from attacking, attacking usually achieves quests, and attacking grants you experience which allows you to unlock better upgrades, you want to attack as often as possible. It pays to be aggressive.

Keep your troops clustered in battle to optimize the rate of fire.

Tactile Wars allows players to draw formations for their troops to take shape. You can draw shapes to allow you to face attackers form all sides. However, spreading your troops out is not effective at eliminating enemies and keeping your troops alive. The best shapes in my experience are clusters. Squares and such allow you to face enemies from multiple directions as well as being grouped together to provide a faster rate of fire while keeping your troops safe. By keeping your troops clustered, your rate of fire will increase, allowing you to mow through your foes faster and hopefully get higher combos. 

During battle, change your formation to best combat your foes.

While staying clustered is usually more effective for keeping your troops alive, you will want to adapt your troop formation to whatever you encounter. For instance, a cluster formation is not as effective when facing a turret. When facing a turret, I usually go with a line type formation to ensure the turret remains under fire while my troops maneuver around and avoid its shots. Otherwise, I go with a tight grouping in order to reduce the target size.

Adapt your formation for your current situation, and nothing will be able to withstand your onslaught! 

Focus your fire on enemy flagbearers.

All groups of enemy troops except for trackers will have a flagbearer among them. Eliminating the flagbearer will destroy the rest of the troops in the squad. As such, you want to focus your attention on them as much as possible. Whenever you see the indication of new troops, pay close attention for the flagbearer. Once you determine his location, you want to adapt your formation to ensure the flagbearer will receive the brunt of your troops fire.

Try to combo flagbearers.
Higher combos will increase your rating in that category and bestow more experience and gold at the end of an attack. Wait until flagbearers are close to your troops and to each other before eliminating them to ensure you net a high combo.

Refrain from going to the enemies when you are capturing an enemy’s territory. Wait for the enemy squads to get close before unleashing your fury. While your troops fire automatically, you can maneuver your troops and formation to allow the enemies to get as close as possible before annihilating them. In doing so, you have a chance to achieve higher combos and net better rewards.
