Desert Storm Battlefield Guide

The weekly 20v20 alliance battle: schedule, which buildings to take and when, and how to win the Nuclear Silo.

Last updated desert stormbattlefieldalliance eventsilofriday

Desert Storm is a weekly 20 vs 20 alliance battle on a separate map. Troops you use there aren't permanently lost, so everyone can fight hard.

  • Only your warzone's top 32 alliances can enter.
  • Two task forces (A and B), each with 20 starters + 10 substitutes.
  • Members need base level 15+ and must have been in the alliance at least 24 hours.
  • Matchmaking uses your alliance's historical power, so dropping power doesn't get you an easier match.

  • Points: you earn a capture bonus plus points every minute you hold a building. The Silo is worth by far the most, then Refineries, then Hospitals.
  • Arsenal: +15% Attack, Defense and HP for your side.
  • Mercenary Factory: −15% to the enemy's.
  • Field Hospitals heal troops while you hold them.
  • Supply boxes (about 1,000 points) drop when a building changes hands.
  • Attacking enemy bases gives personal points only.

How to win

  1. Grab both Refineries and all four Hospitals immediately.
  2. Split into teams. Don't send all 20 players to one building.
  3. Be in position near the Silo by 9:30, then hit it together at 10:00.
  4. Take the Arsenal or Mercenary Factory to swing the big fights.
  5. Teleports are free and refresh about every 2 minutes. Save them for key moments.
  6. Have one shot-caller and use voice chat or Discord.

A Desert Storm win also counts toward Warzone Duel points for your server.
