Geolocalization interrupted : if you are geolocalized through your internet connection, your access point will be considered as your position (Wifi hotspot, or the mobile Internet antenna). Therefore your position might change.
Geolocalization not working : activate your GPS, your Wi-Fi, check that you authorize geolocalization in your settings, restart your phone and go outside. If ever this does not work, detail your issue on forum.citydomination.com
The Areas - 1
The areas are the core of the game. They cover the surface of earth, and are only waiting to be conquered ! Owning the biggest territory is the goal of City Domination.
The Areas - 2
An area carries the color of the gang that owns it. Get it back by attacking. Conquering the areas also allows you to earn $, the game's currency !
[+]
1 – The value of an area is defined in $/h, it is what your gang will get by hour for owning the area.
2 – The value of an area varies with time:
Every time a henchman dies in the area, it gains value.
Every time a player executes a business-type mission in the area, it gains
Every time a player executes a violence-type mission in the area, it loses value
All the areas lose 7.5% of their value per day à 4 AM.
3 – The minimum value for an area is it’s number of men in defense divided by 10 (for example 200 men = 20 $/h).
Attack !
Areas can be won back by attacking them with henchmen. Be careful, to attack an area it needs to be near you, which means you will have to move in real life !
[+]
1 - Every man you kill during an attack earns you a point.
2 - There are bonuses to increase your attack !
Group attack bonus : activated when other members of your gang are in the attack range during your attack. Each player adds +0.4 to your multiplier, up until a maximum of 4 other players. (ex : 2 other players = x1.8 bonus). Your gang's allies also give you this bonus, but only half of what a member or your gang would give you.
Attack ward bonus : If a member of your gang has placed a ward in range, then you will have an attack bonus equal to his strength.
Special bonuses : Different bonuses fit in this category. The new players have a x2 attack bonus until 1000 points. The attack boosters, obtainable in the Shop,give a x1.4 bonus. Events can also give special bonuses.
Place your defenses !
Other gangs are on the lookout for your areas. If you don't place henchmen in defense to secure your areas, be ready to lose ground...
[+]
1 – Every man you place in defense earns you a point.
2 – There are bonuses that will increase an area’s defense !
Player’s defense bonus : active if a gang member you are attacking is within range of the area ; he will the supply a defense bonus to the area. If you are on the map, you supply bonuses to areas that you own in your range of action. This bonus multiplies the power in the men placed in defense by 1.4 with a maximum of 5 players. It works for one player 5 hours after he has logged out. The players also supply their allies’ areas with this bonus, but only half of what a gang member would.
Attack ward bonus : If a member of your gang has placed a ward in range, then you will have an attack bonus equal to its power.
Special bonuses : Different bonuses are in this category. New players have an attack bonus of x2 up until 1000 points. The attack boosters, which you can find in Shop, give a x1.4 bonus. Events can also get you special bonuses.
Spread out your men well.
Regular areas cannot have more than 200 men in defense ; HQs, 2000. Placing a lot of men in defense is often a good idea.
Your men are staying in their areas.
Once your men are placed in defense, you cannot get them back. There is no difference between the men placed by different members of the same gang.
Spy on an area !
By sending only one man in an area, you will be able to obtain precious information… The man you send will not be killed.
I need men !
The areas of City Domination can be won back with henchmen. You can buy henchmen with $ from the map or by rallying.
Rally men to your cause !
In each area you can try to rally men to your cause, once a day. This will allow you to keep playing, especially if you move !
[+]
The amount of men recovered per rallying is variable, it depends on :
the amount of men in defense in the area
the area's value
the amount of points of the gang who owns it
chance
Rally an area several times a day ?
It's possible with a rallying refill ! It sets the day's rallyings back to zero. You will find them in Shop/Refills.
[+]
It is possible to use rallying refills several times a day, but the price in gold bars will increase every time.
The missions
There is always something to do when you're a gangster ! In all the areas in your action range, you can launch missions that will grant you various rewards to collect !
[+]
Be careful, the rewards decrease progressively once the mission is over ! After 24 hours there is nothing left. You have to hurry to get the rewards.
Several types of missions !
There are several types of regular missions (Business, Violence, Respect and Diplomacy) and they get you different types of rewards. Try them all !
[+]
Regular mission are of a short duration, with small rewards. Detailed rewards :
Business : $ reward. Launching a Business mission causes an increase in the value of income in the area. However, the mission is twice as long for the same reward.
Violence : $ reward. Launching a Violence mission causes a decrease in the value of income in the area, however the reward is quicker to obtain.
Respect : Reward valued in henchmen. The Respect missions have a more stable duration. However the rewards decrease twice as fast as for other missions.
Diplomacy : $ + Henchmen reward. The Diplomacy missions last 3 times longer than other missions but reap 3 times the rewards.
Some very special missions !
Certain areas offer special missions which take place in 5 steps. Finish all 5 steps to hit the jackpot ! It's up to you to find them !
[+]
The terms of achievement are longer and longer, and the reward is given at the end of the 5th step.
The Wards - 1
Wards give attack or defense bonuses to your men or those of your gang, in a set range, for several days ! They are very useful to get the upper hand !
[+]
1 – The wards can only be placed in your current location.
2 – The are several types of wards with different characteristics, to be used depending on your needs:
A range of action : it is the area in which your ward will be effective
A power : it is the multiplying bonus given by the ward
A duration : the number of hours during which your ward will be active before it disappears.
the Wards - 2
Attack wards increase your men and your gang's men power during attacks. Defense wards increase the power of the men placed in defense.
[+]
The bonuses granted by wards can be combined with other bonuses (group bonus, special bonus, etc…).
Be careful however, the bonuses from two attack wards or two defense wards do not combine with each other : only the most powerful will be taken into account.
The filters
