First you want to buy a High Command subscription. That means the build queue works for you even when you don't log in every few hours. That really cuts down on the babysitting during the day.

So then you will need to log in on your phone and start research on schedule, and to direct some of your attacks if you are in a battle. I like using artillery with High Command fire controls I can do a lot of cleanup of areas without paying a lot of attention. Set stacks including artillery to agressive fire and march them through enemy land, they stop and bombard from range any units they find. Of course other players or AI can rush at you, so proper defense of your artillery is necessary, but that is another topic.

So for me that means some time every evening laying out marching orders and adding things to the build queue for the next day, and then I check in as needed. I plan the initial part of an invasion for times when I can pay attention and check in on my phone if needed to adjust orders.


So if you do it this way I don't use even a half a Gig of data on my phone in a month playing Call of War, but of course that isn't a serious commitment to playing via mobile, just a check in every day.

Yes. It is very easy to queue up a whole weeks worth of stuff, much like racking up a big credit card bill without consideration of when the bill will come due I try to only queue up a days worth of stuff at a time early in the game.

Depending on where you live you may not be using you dataplan at all. There are so many free wifi services these days its easy enough to go to your local coffee shop issue your orders on their wifi while grabbing a coffee.
