Automated Siege Warfare Cloud Phone: A New Tool for Game Gold Farming

Introduction: The “Brick Carrying” Opportunities Behind Siege Battles

Have you ever experienced this in an SLG game—at three in the morning, the enemy alliance launches an assault, your city is on the verge of collapse, but you fall because you don’t have enough manpower? Or, do you want to raise a main account through multiple alt accounts, plunder resources, or even specifically participate in siege battles to earn rewards and resources, but manually operating dozens of accounts is almost impossible?

In strategy games like Rise of Kingdoms, Rate of the Land, and Romance of the Three Kingdoms·Strategy Edition, siege battles are the core gameplay for obtaining rare items, resources, and leaderboard rewards. At the same time, a mature side hustle has evolved around siege battles: game “brick carrying.” By batch-creating accounts, completing daily tasks, participating in sieges, and reselling resources or accounts, experienced studios can easily earn over 10,000 RMB per month. However, traditional manual multi-opening faces three major pain points: high equipment costs, high risk of account bans, and low efficiency.

With the maturity of cloud phone technology, especially cloud phone platforms like NestBox that feature independent hardware fingerprints and RPA automation capabilities, automated siege battles have become both safe and efficient. This article will delve into how to use cloud phones to achieve automated siege battles and share practical techniques for game “brick carrying.”

The Three Core Pain Points of Automated Siege Battles

1. Ban Risk for Multiple Accounts

Most SLG games have strict detection mechanisms for multi-opening on the same device, emulators, and IP anomalies. Once the system determines that multiple accounts come from the same device, it may restrict sieges and resource acquisition at the very least, or directly ban accounts at worst. Traditional PC emulators share hardware parameters (MAC addresses, motherboard serial numbers, etc.), leading to a ban probability as high as 30% or more. Using real phone clusters, on the other hand, makes equipment costs and electricity bills unbearable.

2. Time Cost of Manual Operation

A full siege battle usually requires forming up 1 hour in advance, calculating march times, controlling skill release timing, and lasts 20-30 minutes. If you have 10 accounts, you need to monitor each account’s queues, troops, speed items simultaneously—manual operation is almost impossible. Not to mention the daily tasks and resource gathering that need to be repeated multiple times every day.

3. Device and Network Stability Issues

Even with real phone group control, issues like network disconnections, power outages, and device overheating are common. If a critical node disconnects during a siege, it could lead to the entire team’s defeat, wasting all previous efforts. If the cloud phone service is not stable, it also cannot meet the 7×24-hour unattended operation requirement.

How Cloud Phones Solve the Automated Siege Battle Challenge

Independent Hardware Fingerprint, Complete Anti-Association

Each cloud phone on NestBox has an independent hardware fingerprint (including IMEI, IMSI, MAC address, Android ID, etc.), simulating a real device at the hardware level. This means you can log into 50 NestBox instances simultaneously on the same physical computer or phone, and each instance appears to the game server as a completely independent real phone. According to actual tests, using NestBox to batch-run SLG games, the account survival rate can exceed 98%, far higher than emulator solutions.

Unlimited Multi-Opening: Manage Hundreds of Accounts from One PC

Traditional real-phone solutions require a large number of phones and SIM cards, with upfront costs easily reaching tens of thousands of RMB. NestBox supports unlimited cloud multi-opening. You only need an ordinary computer or phone to control dozens or even hundreds of accounts simultaneously. Each cloud phone runs independently without interference. Moreover, cloud phone configurations can be adjusted as needed (2 cores 4GB, 4 cores 8GB, etc.) to ensure smooth operation of medium-to-large SLG games like Rise of Kingdoms.

RPA Automation: Completely Hands-Free

The core of automated siege battles is an automated script. NestBox has a built-in RPA (Robotic Process Automation) engine that supports recording operations, loop execution, and conditional judgments. Through simple graphical configuration, you can complete the following automation processes:

• Auto Formation: Periodically check the alliance channel; once a siege order appears, automatically dispatch the designated troops to participate.
• Auto Reinforcement: When troops drop below a threshold, automatically recruit from the city or outpost.
• Resource Gathering: When idle, automatically send troops to gather resource points on the map to maintain a positive resource cycle.
• Skill Combo: Release hero skills in a preset order to maximize output.

For example, you can record an operation sequence: open the game → enter the alliance → click formation → select troops → dispatch. Then set it to loop check every 5 minutes; once a siege icon appears, it executes automatically. The entire process requires no manual intervention, truly achieving “winning by lying down.”

High Availability and Per-Minute Billing

Automated siege battles require 7×24-hour uninterrupted operation, and the worst thing is a cloud phone service suddenly going down. NestBox promises 99.95% availability, meaning no more than 4.4 hours of downtime per year, and actual operations rarely encounter unexpected failures. Even more attractive is its per-minute billing model: you only pay when you use it. If you only multi-open during the daily siege battle period (e.g., 8-10 PM), the monthly cost can be even lower than a meal delivery, offering excellent value.

Practical Operation: Building an Automated Siege Tool with NestBox

Step 1: Register and Create a Cloud Phone Instance

Visit NestBox , register an account, and enter the console. Click “New Instance,” select a configuration suitable for SLG games (recommended 4 cores 8GB), and the system will allocate a cloud phone with independent hardware in seconds.

Step 2: Install the Game and Automation Script

Through the cloud phone’s remote desktop, operate it like a real phone: open the app store, download and install your SLG game. Then open NestBox’s built-in “RPA Assistant” and record a siege battle automation workflow. Beginners can start with a simple “auto-gathering” and gradually add logic like “auto-formation,” “auto-use items,” etc.

Step 3: Batch Duplicate and Multi-Open

Once the script for the first account runs stably, you can save that cloud phone as an image template, and then create 50 or 100 identical instances in one click. Each instance runs independently without interference. NestBox’s group control panel supports sending unified commands to all instances (e.g., all accounts join an alliance, move to a designated coordinate for defense), greatly improving management efficiency.

Step 4: Set Alerts and Auto-Replacement

To prevent accidental disconnections from affecting income, you can set up “health checks” in the NestBox backend. If a cloud phone freezes or the game crashes, the system will automatically restart and re-run the script, while sending a WeChat alert. According to user feedback, after adopting NestBox, the daily effective online time of a single account has increased to over 23.5 hours.

Beyond Game “Brick Carrying”: Automation Inspiration for Cross-Border E-commerce and Social Media Marketing

Although this article focuses on automated siege battles, the independent hardware anti-association and RPA automation capabilities of cloud phones are equally applicable to cross-border e-commerce and social media marketing.

• Cross-Border E-commerce: Run multiple stores on Amazon, eBay, and Shopee. Use NestBox to configure an independent cloud phone environment and IP for each store, avoiding associated store bans. Combined with RPA for automatic product listing, customer service replies, and negative review monitoring, efficiency can be improved by more than 5 times.
• Social Media Marketing: Run multiple accounts on TikTok, Instagram, and Facebook for traffic generation. Each cloud phone provides an independent native environment, preventing mass registration bans. RPA can automatically like, comment, and follow, quickly accumulating followers.

This cross-domain versatility makes NestBox a “universal toolbox” for side-hustle entrepreneurs and studios. Whether it’s game “brick carrying” or e-commerce marketing, you only need one set of equipment to manage dozens or even hundreds of identities simultaneously.

Summary and Suggestions

Automated siege battles are no longer a fantasy. With cloud phone technology, individual players or small studios can participate with low cost and high efficiency. Choosing a reliable service provider is crucial—independent hardware fingerprint anti-association, RPA automation, 7×24 stable operation, and per-minute billing are four essential features. NestBox performs excellently in these dimensions. Currently, over 10,000 users have used it to achieve a side income from game “brick carrying.”

Of course, any side hustle carries risks. Game publishers’ policies may change at any time. It is recommended to reasonably control the number of accounts and avoid excessively squeezing the game economy. At the same time, start with small-scale testing to verify script stability before expanding. Finally, remember to use NestBox’s per-minute billing model to save upfront costs.
