The New Fleet of The Resistance — Diplomacy is Not an Option Walkthrough

Guide for 'The New Fleet of The Resistance' in Diplomacy is Not an Option, focusing on early resource exploitation, constant defense, and Emperor Crab encounte.

This mission is a repeat of the fleet-building objective, but with increased difficulty and constant small waves attacking from the North and South. Resource piles on the map are more valuable, allowing for a quicker Keep Level 2. You'll also need to capture beaches guarded by Emperor Crabs.

Objectives:

• Build 4 Ships.
• Put Units on Ship:
  • 30 Crossbowmen
  • 40 Spearmen
  • 30 Footknights

Strategy:

• Early Resource Advantage: Utilize the highly valuable resource piles on the map. Easily pick up 100 Stone to rush Keep Level 2 and set up Stone Quarries early.
• Constant Attacks: Small, continuous waves will attack from the North and South without icons. You need to post infantry at key choke points to continuously repel them.
• Clear Space: Your first objective is to clear a safe working space. There's a huge forest, so higher-level Lumberyards aren't critical until Keep Level 3 for the infinite wood setup.
• Squads for Clearing: Form multiple squads for faster map clearing. A balanced squad of Healers, Spearmen, Axemen, and Crossbowmen is effective. Horsemen are essential for plugging gaps or reinforcing besieged walls.
• Emperor Crabs: Dedicate a squad to clear the beaches guarded by 4 Emperor Crabs. These crabs are similar to previous bosses. Since attacks don't come from that direction, you can safely build towards them.
• Ship Building & Unit Boarding: Once your economy is stable and the map is sufficiently cleared, build the 4 ships and board them with the specified units.

This mission demands constant vigilance against small waves, efficient resource management, and proactive map clearing to secure your expansion and objectives.
