Hello! I'm new to this game and I was wondering about the bombard mechanic.

Is it just like a normal attack except you cant reduce it below 1? Do you still roll dice and lose troops?

This would make me think that attacking when there are exactly 2 enemies it is not worth it because you can lose up to 2 but only kill 1...

thanks, sheriff. Now for a real tough question: how do we beat Cardinalrules in 12 domains? LOL

Ok I get that, but I wanted to talk a bit more about strategy on when to bombard...

Also, am I correct in assuming you still roll dice and can lose troops while bombarding?

You surrender gracefully and hope that your death will be a quick one, of course

You are correct.
