Understanding Clashfronts
Clashfronts is a dynamic guild battle mode in AFK Journey where four guilds face off on a shared battlefield. The event spans five intense rounds, each offering opportunities to deploy teams, participate in skirmishes (small-scale battles) and melees (larger, chaotic fights), and occupy key territories.
Points earned from holding territories and winning battles determine your guild’s ranking, with the top two guilds advancing to higher tiers (Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Diamond, Exalted) at the end of each round, while the bottom two may remain or drop. The goal? Reach the highest tier possible by 27 July 2025 to maximize rewards.
- Battlefield Layout: The map is a grid of territories, each with strategic value. Choke points control access, while high-value zones (like those with Treasure Hamsters) boost your score significantly.
- Tier Progression: After each round, guilds are ranked by points, with the top two ascending and the bottom two fighting to hold their ground or risk demotion.
Strategies for New Guild Leaders
Guild leaders, you’re the masterminds behind your guild’s triumph. Appoint a Clashfront Coordinator to adjust team deployments, counter rival guilds, and maximize points through territorial control and special mechanics. Here are your battle-tested strategies:
1. Form Strategic Alliances
Temporary alliances can amplify your strength, but trust is a rare commodity in Clashfronts:
- Coordinate: Team up to focus fire on a shared rival or defend key areas like the Treasure Hamster tile.
- Communicate Clearly: Keep objectives aligned and communication sharp via in-game chat or tools like Discord.
- Prepare for Betrayal: Always have a fallback plan—alliances can crumble under guild rivalry’s pressure.
2. Assign Roles
Balance your guild’s efforts with clear roles to maximize efficiency:
- Vanguards: Deploy extra teams for aggressive plays, racking up points to demoralize rivals and establish dominance. Be present daily to guide them.
- Others: Follow the Coordinator’s instructions to support the strategy, whether defending key tiles or reinforcing allies.
3. Treasure Hamsters: A Key to Victory
Treasure Hamsters are sneaky critters that can swing the event, offering points rivals will kill to steal:
- Mechanics: They appear randomly during a Deployment stage, revealing a chest two rounds later (e.g., round 2 spawn, round 4 chest). Controlling the territory earns 600 points per round, totaling 1200 if held for rounds 4 and 5.
- Strategic Importance: Securing this territory is a game-changer. Deploy tough teams (e.g., Wilder Surging Stall or Tank-and-Spank) and coordinate with allies to fend off assaults.
Example: A Hamster on Base 2 in round 2 yields a chest in round 4. Holding it through round 5 nets 1200 points—losing it to a rival could cost you the tier.
Map Analysis and Overall Strategy
The battlefield map reveals a winning strategy to outmaneuver rivals. Analyze it and execute this plan:
Map Overview: Four starting positions (AQUA, PURP, GOLD, RED) with Outer Bases (OB1/OB2, +100 points), Inner Bases (IB1/IB2, +120 points), and HQ (+150 points). Natural expansions (AQUA2, etc., +80 points) offer early growth.
Overall Strategy:
- Round 1: Capture your Outer Base (OB1 or OB2) with your full force and deploy your weakest team to your natural expansion (e.g., AQUA2). No rival can attack it yet.
- Round 2: Attempt to capture both Inner Bases (IB1, IB2) with vanguard teams (e.g., Eironn Nuke) to control choke points.
- Round 3:
- 3A: If you hold both IB1 and IB2, deploy one team to secure HQ in round 3, locking rivals out with choke points.
- 3B: If you hold only one of the IB bases (IB1 or IB2), contest HQ with the strongest teams you can muster.
- Round 4: If you have secured HQ and are still controlling both IB1 and IB2, you can leave HQ undefended as no one can attack it when you are holding the two chokepoints entrances to HQ.
- Round 5: Seize Hamsterland (the hamster tiles) with a strike force (e.g., Eironn Nuke) for extra points if you are strong enough. This requires the Clashfront Coordinator’s judgment call.
