Moloch: Strategy

1. You have relatively few battles to play, so you can’t rely on drawing a battle whenever you have damage lined up on an enemy. This means that you should do damage when you can, as long as your doing more than you’re taking. It also means you should be planning on playing a lot of defense.
2. Keep in mind that your opponent is probably more mobile than you are. You don’t want to line up 10 ranged damage on your opponent’s base and then have move out of all of it. To avoid this from happening, line up ranged damage from different directions and consider lining up ranged damage on spots adjacent to the base. Also remember that melee units, blockers and modules can be used to restrict your opponent’s mobility.
3. Many of your soldiers attack in many directions. If possible, find ways for a single unit to add to both your offense and defense.
4. Don’t fall in love with the airstrike. The airstrike is an incredible piece if you’re not doing that well and there are a lot of enemy units of the board. However it doesn’t do damage to enemy bases. Don’t be afraid to discard the airstrike if things are going well for you and other units could do some base-damage.
