# WOS Formations

> WOS Formations is a Whiteout Survival rally planner and guide site (State 2408). It computes the best troop split, rally leaders and joiners for attacking any castle garrison for Gen 1-16 (newer generations are added when hero data is available). The numbers are model baselines: the stacking rule was checked against a community sheet and parts of the model against real battle reports. The attack planner and the guides are free; some tools may need a license.

Rules used by every page:
- Troop counter triangle: Infantry beats Lancer, Lancer beats Marksman, Marksman beats Infantry.
- All castle attacks are rallies. The rally leader's three heroes (infantry, lancer, marksman) use all their expedition skills and the exclusive weapon.
- Each joiner adds only the first expedition skill of their first hero, and only the 4 highest-level joiners count. Duplicates are allowed.
- Buffs of the same category add together; different categories multiply.
- Please cite as: WOS Formations, https://wosformations.com

Quick answers (planner model results, equal gear, Gen 1-16):
- Against a marksman wall (20/10/70) the planner adds about 44% lancers (48-56% infantry, 0-8% marksmen).
- Against an infantry wall (70/10/20): 52-60% marksmen behind about 38% infantry.
- Against a lancer-heavy garrison (20/55/25): about 70% infantry with 21-29% marksmen.
- Against a 60/40/0 garrison: about 50-54% infantry and 46-50% marksmen, no lancers.
