===== War Declarations and Commanding Clans =====

  * A clan member with the appropriate authority declares war by spending Clan Prestige.
  * Before the Battle Phase begins, the first commanding clan is selected based on the declarations and each clan's Prestige at the target fief.
  * Among the clans that declared war, the clan with the highest Prestige at the target fief receives priority to begin the first fief battle.
  * After a battle ends, the next commanding clan is selected again using the updated Clan Prestige values.
  * If the commanding clan does not begin its attack within the time limit, another clan is selected.
  * If a clan loses after declaring war or fails to open a battlefront, its Prestige at the target fief is deducted according to the rules.

===== Provisions and Continuing an Attack =====

  * Each fief provides a base attack duration of 10 minutes.
  * Provisions are required to continue attacking beyond those 10 minutes.
  * Attackers can maintain the battlefront by building a Main Camp within the target fief's jurisdiction, preparing a Granary, and donating provisions.
  * If provisions run out, the attack can no longer continue and may end in failure.
  * Both attackers and defenders can check the attackers' provision status.
  * Upgrade your [[personal-camp|Personal Camp]] to Lv. 4 and build a Wagon Camp to switch to a Transport Unit when deploying. Transport Units have greatly increased camp capacity and can donate provisions to a Granary.
