6.2 Aggressive operations

Aggressive operations can be performed against your enemy to hinder or attack your enemy. For attacking towns the basic attack rules apply, for other location there are no protection rules.

Each operation has its own factors for difficulty to perform and defenses that apply against it. Be sure to check the table after the descriptions of each operation.

NOTE: Performing operations against towns and other locations will give you operations experience needed to reach higher operation levels.
