01 · Inventory Cleanup Recycle Blue Skill Books Turn unusable Rank B skill manuals into resource boxes after every blue hero's skills are maxed.

What to do

Open the Warehouse and select the Hero tab.
Locate any leftover blue Rank B skill books.
Confirm that every Rank B hero already has all skills at maximum level.
Select Recycle when the option appears, then convert the manuals into Random RSS Boxes.

02 · Caravan Progression Rotate Your Best Armor in Caravan Temporarily move one strong equipment set between factions to push all three Caravan paths farther.

Rotation sequence

Equip your strongest armor on the Blood Rose formation, enter Caravan, and advance until that faction stalls.
Exit, move the same armor to your Wings of Dawn formation, and continue its path.
Repeat the process with Guard of Order.
When all three attempts are finished, return the equipment to your normal primary formation.

03 · March Setting Enable Auto Return for Troops Use Auto Return so completed attack marches come home without requiring another manual command.

Turn it on

Select your target and tap Attack.
Find the Auto Return option in the march panel.
Make sure the checkbox shows a green check mark before sending the march.
Tap March. After combat, the troops will begin returning home automatically.

04 · Temporary Buffs Use Capital Position Buffs Apply for the Capital position that matches the construction, research, gathering, or combat action you are about to complete.

Apply for a position

Open your profile, then select your State number.
Review the available Capital positions and identify the buff that matches your next major action.
Apply before beginning the construction, research, gathering, or combat task.
Wait for your turn, then complete the planned action while the buff is active.

05 · Resource Protection Save Leveled RSS Chests Keep leveled chests boxed until an upgrade is ready so their value can grow and the resources remain protected.

Use chests deliberately

Keep leveled chests boxed whenever possible. Their resource value increases as your Headquarters level rises.
Open only the amount required. Check the upgrade screen first and identify the exact shortfall.
Prioritize progression bottlenecks. Reserve the chests for Headquarters requirements, critical buildings, or important research.
Avoid turning protected inventory into loose resources early. Once opened, the balance may become vulnerable above Warehouse protection.
