Brief intro: One of the different motivations to sign into Elvenar is to manually fight the battles on the hex board, although not too many players do this consistently for most of their battles. It is my primary motivation.
I am thinking about starting this thread to see if their are any other MFs out there, and lets get one thing straight from the outset: MF is short for 'manual fighter' or 'manual fighting' and does not have any other meaning.
Posting: While it would be gratifying to read replies of general support and encouragement, I would ask that replies be limited to questions about MF or useful tips and tricks for MF, so as not to TLDR this thread. There are plenty of other threads in which to be purely social. Of course if there is little interest we won't have to worry about that. Also, this is not intended to be a discussion of the general merits of auto-fight vs. MF.
For this to work well, Human MF are needed to weigh in because my experience is limited to that of an Elf. I tried fighting as a Human but just preferred to go on as an Elf town.
New players are first encouraged to learn the battle basics in Elvenar here. Tactics will be assumed to take place in the long middle game (approximately chapters 5 through 14, after Golems become 2* but before blossom mages become 3*, in the Elf city) unless posters identify their battle as occurring the the early or late game stages. Beginning game tactics are quite different owing to the difficulty in province fighting that one must graduate through. If there are any late game MF out there I would like to hear from you, although I suspect that there are not.
Finally, if you wish to post a detailed discussion about a specific battle scenario, complete with screenshots, please start that discussion as a separate thread so as to not bloat this general post with a lot of images and spoiler buttons.
Skeptically patient,
Gkyr
