Warstorm is a Facebook card game. You start with a few choices of cards that represent your army. Each card has a representation of attack and health. Here is how attack versus health works. Let us say that your card has two attack points and three health points and attacks another card with two attack points and three health points. In the first round your card will do two points of damage to the other card leaving one health. That card will then on its turn attack back leaving your card with one health. On round two you will do two more damage to his card. Since the card only had one health left, this will destroy the card. Of course this will leave your card with a whopping one health and the next hit will kill it.

The next detail that you need to understand in Warstorm is the squad. You cannot battle without a full squad. A squad consists of one hero card and six unit cards. The hero card is more a more powerful version of the other cards and can take and dish out more damage than the average card. The unit cards vary in arrack and health and some of them have special abilities. The Estian Cleric card, for instance, can heal itself or other cards, two health each turn. Other cards can do extra damage, regenerate, block, and many other card skills that you will discover in the game.

Combat in Warstorm is pretty simple. You go to the battlegrounds and choose your squad or squads and proceed to fight. You automatically draw one random card from your squads each turn. On each card are three numbers. The first number on the left is how many turns it takes for that card to join in the battle after it is drawn. The second number is your attack. The third number is your health. Since the drawing of cards is random, you will have to build your squads carefully. If you only use the more powerful cards it may take a long time for them to join the battle. Once you enter combat you will see on the left side of the screen two numbers. Both numbers represent health. The top number is your opponent's health, the bottom number is your health. Each time a card is not faced with another card in combat, the damage done goes to the player health. When health reaches zero the match is over. If it is your opponent's health that reached zero, you win and get rewarded with silver and experience. If you lose you will get a small amount of experience.As you play Warstorm on Facebook, there are also achievements that you can accomplish. These achievements will reward you with more silver and at the highest level extra cards. To gain additional cards, you can take your hard won silver and purchase more cards. The best cards of course can only be bought with gold. Gold can be obtained through a real world purchase. If you love the game, I would suggest this purchase, as it will give you a huge advantage against the casual player. Warstorm is a easy game to learn and play, although the subtleties of creating just the right squads is a challenge. I would say this game is well worth the time to learn and play.

    Hello,

    I've played warstorm (not the FB version) and believe me it's a total RIP OFF.

    This is a warning message ...
    DON'T PAY to play this game.

    Like lots of things it's only about the money, that's all they are after.
