4s Hello Forge Fans!
6s Welcome to our tips and tricks  for the Quantum Incursions!
9s In Quantum Incursions you have to coordinate  with your guild to succeed, starting with:
15s 1) Selecting the right goods buildings.  Each player can only choose two goods types,  
21s but as a guild you'll be able to cover them  all. So when you start your settlement,  
26s have a look at which goods buildings  your guildmates have already selected,  
30s and choose the two with the lowest numbers.
32s 2) Choosing the right units. When  starting the settlement you have to  
37s choose which two military buildings you  want to use, but unlike goods you are  
42s more open to choose the ones you prefer.  Some nodes will require unit donations,  
47s but the total number of fighting nodes allows  you to choose the units you are comfortable  
52s with. Choosing ballista and archer will allow  you to stay safer at range, but you'll be  
58s susceptible to the fast moving mounted warriors.  Against those, soldiers will deal more damage,  
65s but at the same time, you might be weaker against  the legionnaires ... so choose your units wisely!
71s Regardless of which units you choose, you will be  fighting with limited resources, so you need to:
77s 3) Fight carefully. Fighting manually  will give you much more control of your  
83s losses. You can make sure to stay out  of enemy attack range when possible,  
88s and you can surrender if the fight looks too  unfavourable. On each fighting node you will  
93s get twice the rewards if you use exclusively  the two suggested unit types. This is definitely  
99s worth considering, but only if you are still  able to win the fights without heavy losses.
104s Speaking of bonuses, each donation node  also has those for specific resources.  
110s To maximise guild success, you should therefore:
114s 4) Only donate goods and military units  that give you the node bonus! This is  
120s where teamwork is crucial.Spreading out  the goods and military buildings means  
125s your guild should always be able  to donate for the double bonus!
129s While teamwork is great, you also need to  manage your own resources in the settlement.  
134s The production and construction times  are longer than you are familiar with  
138s from the cultural settlements, which means  a good plan is crucial for success. If you  
143s have a good plan, the settlement will  hardly require any management at all,  
148s and you can focus your efforts on QI  encounters! Therefore we recommend that you:
155s 5) Focus on building up your coin and supply  productions in the beginning. The quicker you  
161s get your coins and supply productions running,  the more you can spend on units and goods later  
166s on in the Quantum Incursion, and you can replace  your culture buildings with decorations for higher  
171s attack boosts. Nodes in the first difficulties  are easier to defeat, so if you work as a team,  
177s your guild should be able to defeat the  bosses, even with limited resources!
183s 6) Don’t be afraid to delete buildings. The  starting buildings are cheap and quick to  
188s construct, but the more expensive  ones will quickly outperform them,  
192s so don’t be afraid to delete buildings!
195s Another important aspect of  resource management is that you:
199s 7) Can’t do everything on your own. Collaborating  as a guild allows each member to specialise in one  
207s production, be it a goods building or a military  barrack. When your specialised production is  
213s required, you can donate yourself, when it’s  not, you can let your guildmates take care of it!
219s 8) Make sure to take down all  fortresses and garrisons! If you  
225s find the bosses too difficult to defeat,  taking down all fortresses and garrisons  
229s will greatly improve your chances. And  not only will it make the boss easier,  
235s but completing all nodes will also give  both you and your guild more rewards!
240s Still struggling?
242s 9) Look out for buildings that give  you QI attack boosts! You can get  
248s unique QI boosts from the Tourney Ground  and Forgotten Temple, and all the cultural  
252s settlement main reward buildings have been  revamped to provide QI boosts as well!
258s 10) Experiment for yourself! The best way to  truly learn and understand QI is to experiment  
266s for yourself. Use the first couple of  playthroughs to try different things,  
271s until you find what works for you!
