Rebels are independent units which can be attacked even if you have an active shield. They come in 10 levels; the higher their level, the more difficult it is to defeat them.
In order to attack a higher level rebel, you must defeat one rebel of the previous level. For example, you cannot attack a level 4 rebel if you haven’t defeated a level 3 rebel first. The first time you defeat a rebel of a higher level is called a First Kill.
When this happens, you will receive 8 different rewards. The next time you defeat a rebel of the same level though, you will only receive two or more random rewards. Rebels cannot destroy your units; if harmed in the attack, they will end up in your Hospitals.
Each Rebel attack costs you 2000 Stamina.
Stamina
Stamina is needed in order to be able to attack Rebels. Each attack will take away 2000 Stamina Points. It has a pool of 50,000 points and it can be replenished either in time [3600 points/hour] or by using Stamina Items [can be accessed by tapping on the “+” sign].
FAQ: How many units should I send to defeat each Rebel from level 1 to 10?
Unfortunately, this is a piece of information we cannot provide you with, as it depends on too many factors. There are a number of things that will influence the numbers, such as:
- your skill point assignment
- the type and tier of units you use
- the march size
- the equipment of your Commander
- the presence of your Commander in the attack march
- any attack boosters or buffs you might use
- your overall attack bonuses that come from researches and buildings
Thus, the number needed to destroy each level of rebel will differ not only from player to player, but also from attack to attack.
