So for example, if the sector requiring DAs is in the Colonial Age map, then you must use Colonial Age troops. The DA is what another guild trying to steal the sector is going to have to face, so the stronger, the better! With the exception of the All Ages map, the DA troops will have to match the era of the map you’re placing them in.

One simply cannot exist without the other. While fighters provide some awesome force and aggression, those who farm troops and provide DAs provide the defense and back-up that fighters need to keep going. As is with most things in this game, balance is necessary.

No matter how many sectors fighters secure on the GvG maps, if there aren’t troops to drop in for Defense Armies (DAs), there’s not much reason taking land if your intention is to hang on to it.
