You will generally have a very small army so you can't leave anything camping anywhere. You have an MG unsupported? Kiss it goodbye. When you send your main army to attack somewhere set up that MG to cover it, either from reinforcements or the main fight to suppress everything for easy clean up.

Levels for most units are a flat 10% increase in accuracy, health and damage, so level 10 is twice as good as level 1. Some special units deviate from this, like the Avatar gets something like 900hp a level so it becomes a ridiculous monster.

Keep an eye on the top right to see when something is dying otherwise it's already DEAD. Seriously, most units are made of paper or some shit.
