WAR OF DOTS

🌐 SECURE THE GRID

Command your cyber-army to capture nodes and dominate the network. Generate Points by holding bases and Energy to unleash Orbital Strikes.

• Attack/Move: Click your base, then an enemy base to send half your units.
• Rally Point: Double-click a target to automatically send newly created units.
• Upgrade Level: Click your selected base again to upgrade it (costs stored units).
• Unit Clashes: Opposing units annihilate each other mid-air. Send larger swarms to punch through enemy lines!

🏗️ CYBER STRUCTURES (Cost: Points)

• Standard (0): Balanced production and capacity. Default base.
• Radar (150): Massive vision range. Crucial in Fog of War and reveals hidden Ghost units!
• Bunker (250): High defense capacity. Fires heavy units that deal 2.0x damage. Immune to The Glitch!
• Factory (325): Low capacity, but generates Points and Energy 3x faster.
• Sniper (400): Launches ultra-fast units to intercept enemies or snipe weak bases.
• Ghost (500): Produces stealth units invisible to enemies without Radars.

🚀 ORBITAL STRIKES (Cost: Energy)

• EMP (50 NRG): Freezes all enemy bases in the target area for a few seconds.
• Trap Base (50 NRG): Mines your own base. If captured, it detonates and wipes out enemy units.
• Virus (75 NRG): Infects an enemy base: it stops producing and its units drain into your nearest base.
• Trojan (85 NRG): Infect an enemy base. 3 of every 10 units it sends will secretly fight for YOU!
• Nuke (100 NRG): Devastating blast that halves the unit count of all enemies in a massive radius.
• Firewall (100 NRG): Click and drag to draw a custom defensive laser wall. Blocks and vaporizes enemies for 15 seconds.
• Orbital Beam (150 NRG): Activate a massive, mouse-controlled laser beam to sweep across the map and burn everything.

⚠️ GRID HAZARDS

• The Glitch: A rogue black hole of corrupted data (ERR) roaming the map. Destroys units and slowly consumes bases.
• Grid Collapse: A battle-royale style wall of death. When the timer hits zero, the grid shrinks. Any base left outside is instantly wiped out!

🌀 MAP ANOMALIES

• Yellow Portal: Duplicates any units that pass through it.
• Cyan Portal: Shields units, increasing their impact damage to 2.5x.
• Purple Wormhole: Teleports units instantly across the grid.

💡 PRO TIPS

Choose how much of your army to send with keys 1–4 or the mouse wheel (25 / 50 / 75 / 100%). The line from your selected base shows how many units will go and whether that is enough to capture the target. Bases under attack flash with a red ring. Heavy units (Bunker, shielded) also win head-on clashes.
