Get Started – The Basics – Black Command – The Whole Concept

Before we move to the main guide, tips, cheats & strategy part, let’s take a look at the basics first. In Black Command game, you play as a commander and give the instructions to the mercs in the battle. The concept of this game is quite simple; first, you hire the mercs. Mercs are the main characters in Black Command game. And unlike other games, you can not revive the killed mercs. Of course, you can hire them anytime for money.

In most of the battles, you have to destroy the enemy forts, HQ or rescue the hostage. We will go deep into the battle details in the guide part below. Upon getting the victory, you earn money or weapons. Killed mercs would not join you in the next war. You must send them back to their home to free up barracks(Barracks capacity is limited). And hire more mercs to fill up the empty slots.

Another important thing in Black Command game is ammo. In each mission, you have limited ammo. And you must use ammo wisely and to play the turn, you must meet the minimum ammo requirement. You can resupply ammo using gold/ammo crate or skip your turn(Read the battle guide below).

In addition to the money and weapons, you also earn XP or mercs in the team gain XP(required to level up). As you gain XP, your PMC level will increase and new features such as PMC stats, sponsors, skill manual, and more.

In Black Command game, gold is the premium in-game currency. You can use it to buy premium items or in resupplying the ammo or in the battle when the situation got worse+to increase the chances of getting weapons from arms network. You can earn gold by completing the tasks. Here’s the screen guide: –

So that’s the basic Black Command guide for the beginners. Let’s check out our main Black Command guide and then read our top Black Command strategies, tips & cheats.

Black Command Guide

In this part, we will learn about the weapons, skills, mercs, hiring, squad management, world map, and much more.

4. Specialist – 0.79%
5. Expert – 0.55%
6. Master – 0.15%
7. Legend – 0.07%

Pro and high-rank mercs have unique skills that help them in the battle. For example; Renata(Pro) has an SMG Rolling Thunder skill that activated when you equip SMG to Renata. The skill grants chances to avoid fire when retreating whereas rookie mercs do not come with any skill. You can hire the mercs for cash.

Go to the hire menu ->  there you can check the list or mercs. Tap and recruit. The list updates every certain amount of time. By tapping the find more button, you can get more choices, but it will cost you gold or money.

Black Command tips, strategies, cheats: –

1.) Approach From Behind To Save Ammo, Kill Enemies

You can use SMG weapon for the surprise attack. When you approach the enemy from the behind and strike, you will activate the surprise attack cheat. If it gets successful, you will see the message; surprise attack successful. What’s the benefit? It would not cost you any ammo+enemy will be killed(deal massive damage).

2.) When Low On Ammo, Head To The Ammo Depot

On the battle screen, at the top-left corner, you can check the ammo you have. When low on ammo, head to the armor depot and you could get ammo for free. Or use ammo crate(if you have). Keep in mind that you have to complete the mission within the fixed time; on the battle screen, at the top-left corner, just below the objective, you can check the time.

Before you progress in the battle, swipe or analyze all the battlefield; there would be some stations too; sniper post – from here you can shoot enemies(long range), hidden vault – from here you can get Intel or other items, ammo depot post – obtain ammo, gunpowder shed – lure nearby enemies(deal damage, trap).

4.) Focus On The Missions Rather Than Kills

Your primary focus should be on the objective that you have to complete in the given time. On the other hand, if you are focusing only on killing the enemies, then the time will run out and the mission will be failed. You can even complete some missions without battling against the enemy groups. All you need to do is make the right movement path.

5.) Change The Strategy On The Basis Of Situation

At the bottom of the screen, you can check the strategy; standard, caution, and stay. Choosing standard will increase the marching speed, but when passing across the enemy’s side, you may get attacked.

Choose retreat to move on, choose strike first to stop and attack.
