PvNP: "Liberating City & Villages"
In the PvNP: "Liberating City & Villages" mode, the main objective for players is to reconquer lands captured by the evil Crimson Empire, and, in doing so, to build up their own military and resources by building structures. The player must also launch attacks against non-player characters and accomplish other objectives to complete the single-player campaign.
PvP: "Versus Mode"
In PvP mode, called "Versus," Army Attack players battle each other to increase strategic and tactical skills.
On an Army Attack strategy map that is stylized for this type of play, players select their military units beforehand; the player clicks a unit, then dispatches it on the map. If the player's unit is in range of another player's unit, then an attack may be ordered.
In "Versus" mode, a weekly tournament is held amongst players where they can compete for some exclusive in-game rewards.
