Faced with the Mechanical Tide's fierce counterattack, the players' assault grew even more ferocious.
As Free War Mode ended, the United Warbands activated their battle formations to meet the enemy.
As one player put it: "Me, avoid the Mechanical Legion's sharp edge? That's completely backward. Come fight us head-on, and let's see who chickens out first!"
