FAQ North & South
Do I need an account?
Not for the first battle or offline practice. Online matches, events, friend codes, clans, gold and trophies need a GameNow account.
What happens if my connection drops?
Reconnect and the server returns you to the match with a fresh snapshot. Thirty seconds away counts as a surrender; if both players drop, whoever left first loses.
Do card upgrades decide matches?
Each card level adds 10% HP and damage, up to 10. Matchmaking pairs similar trophies, AI opponents use your card levels, and Standard Battle sets everyone to level 7. Redoubt unlocks at 150 best trophies, Gatling Gun and Supply Wagon at 300, Observation Balloon at 600.
How do training stars work?
Offline practice awards three per map and difficulty: Win, Full control (A, B and C held at once, uncontested) and Rout (win with the enemy at half your score or less). Full control counts even in a loss. All 36 are saved only on this device; surrendered matches aren't recorded.
