How to read this manual
Advice you can audit.
Every guide separates official mechanics from our own strategic interpretation. If a number is not public, we do not invent it. If a system changed during development, we say so.
01 / Sources
Official first
Stardock’s faction reveals, developer journals, store page and press kit come before third-party coverage. Source links sit at the bottom of each guide.
02 / Analysis
Clearly ours
Statements such as “protect your ranged units” are strategy advice, not claims of hidden developer intent. The mechanics that support the advice are linked and dated.
03 / Pre-launch
Dated, not evergreen fiction
Ashes II is unreleased at the time of writing. We label the pre-launch edition and will revise pages when the launch build and patch notes arrive.
Next step
Put the plan into a roster.
Use the army builder to organise a task force by role, or check whether your PC meets the published launch requirements.
