Snatch Wars

---

Snatch Wars was a Guild Ops type introduced in Metal Slug Attack.

Overview

The first type of Guild Ops released with the 2.3.1 update, Snatch Wars is group content designed for Guilds (which players may join at level 8).

Snatch Wars were replaced with the Try Line Extra Ops due to a lack of interest since highly competitive guilds discouraged weaker ones from trying and hackers ruining the overall experience.

Overview

Each day during these events, four guilds are placed in a grid where they rush to claim territory by defeating bosses within each tile. Grid dimensions vary depending on the membership numbers of the guilds, from 5x5 to 10x10.

Bosses aren't dangerous (especially since most are vulnerable to stun). In fact, the only dangerous boss during Guild Ops is the Huge Hermit, due to its partial stun immunity. The health of the bosses vary based on the grid's size:

Boss Health

Grid Size	Normal	Hard	Hell
8x8	12,000,000	25,000,000	50,000,000
9x9	18,000,000	35,000,000	70,000,000
10x10	25,000,000	50,000,000	100,000,000

Once a territory is gained enemy guilds may also attempt to capture the tile, although a defense deck set by the owning guild member who dealt the most damage will fight alongside the boss. Allied guild members can also spend MSP or medals to increase the boss's health (50,000 MSP for a 5% health buff or 100 medals for 10%; doesn't affect the defense deck).

A good defense deck will should have units that can hinder an attacker's progress (e.g Rapid), as the slower the opponent is in damaging the boss, the more sorties they will have to use to defeat it and steal the tile. The "Metal Slug Attack" command should also be used, as "Reload" and "Recovery" are inconsistent and unreliable.

Players can spend anywhere from 30 to 150 sorties on sorties against unclaimed/hostile territories, granting an equal number of seconds to deal as much damage as they can to the enemy, and one POW per ten sorties spent at the end of the stage. A "chain" will also be formed after an attack (assuming the tile remains uncaptured), increasing damage dealt during the *next* attack (1% per 10 sorties). Chains can continue to accumulate over multiple attacks in order to provide yet more damage, although they expire if no further attacks are performed within ten minutes.

Note: Beginner players (level 20 or lower) participating in Guild Ops have reduced sortie input (so 15 minimum, 75 maximum) - however, the chain bonus for the tile they attacked is doubled. For example, if a beginner player gets a 10% chain, it would be doubled to 20% because of their status.

Lower difficulty stages mainly award MSP, while higher difficulties tend to provide more unit parts and items. Enemy bases have the highest chance of getting rare unit parts - as these cannot be captured, they also provide the best potential for building chains.

Rewards are granted to daily participants depending on the number of tiles their guild captured, and their overall rank compared to the other guilds:
