What is a build order in Mini War?
A build order is a step-by-step construction sequence optimized for a specific strategy. Following a build order removes guesswork from the opening phase.
Which build order should I start with?
If you're new, start with the 10-Minute Opening or Economy Opening. Both are Beginner difficulty and teach the core income loop.
How do I know when to deviate from the build order?
Follow the build order until your economy is self-sustaining, then adapt based on what you scout. The Transition Note on each build order tells you exactly when and where to branch.
