The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- While strategic goals for an invasion can be numerous and complex in nature, the foremost tactical objective normally involves militarily occupying part or all of the invaded polity's territory.
- Today, if a polity conducts an invasion without having been attacked by their opponent beforehand, it is widely considered to constitute an international crime and condemned as an act of aggression.
- Historically, invasions have variously been associated with conquest and annexation, self-defence, liberation of the invaded polity's people, or the establishment or re-establishment of control or authority over a territory.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Invasion article was read about 37,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 71 and blocks with 59: each hit it takes is cut by 24 %.
