War Error: Unknown Target, Please Try Again Later / Can’t Attack or Use Flags

No it showed me moving to attack then froze and kicked me out. Never disconnected.

I launched my attack in war, but connectivity issues (I am assuming it was my WiFi) prevented the attack from starting. I killed WiFi and came back to a lost flag and a zero for the attack.

I attempted to go after the same team again, and noticed that the heroes I had selected for the prior attack were available. I selected them and tried to launch my attack, but an error prevented it from starting. It did not cost me a flag.

I restarted the game and noticed that now the heroes I had selected for the prior attack were unavailable. I selected a different set of heroes and attempted to launch my attack and received an Unknown Target error. It did not cost me a flag.

I am stepping away from the battlefield for a bit.

This is happening in my alliance as well.


Since I’m leading a teaching alliance, I’d really love to know if anything can help my members that are having this problem.

Everytime I want to fight THAT pops up. Then I try to fight the same one again & then get kicked/disconnected 5-10 seconds later & eventually get no points… This is really aggravating…

Never seen that one :face_with_raised_eyebrow:

Have you submitted a support ticket. Definitely needs looking at if no one else has any ideas.

Have you closed and opened the game again or is this from multiple wars?

This is the 5th war it has happened… My other alliance member has had the same happen last war…

Ouch. Have you put a ticket in about it? Definitely worth a shot.

It sounded familiar to me, I just merged a few threads.

Unfortunately, none of them had any posts about a solution. :confused:


@SG13 I agree that contacting Support would be best as a next step.

Well it’s happening STILL. Can’t make hits… It’s unbelievable how many bugs/glitches are happening on my side… It’s so annoying…

I experienced this and so did my team mate. For me I waited a bit and tried hitting again and it worked.

For my team mate he couldn’t get his hits in.

I suppose consensus is to file a support ticket?

I got exactly the same thing only I got loved into a battle that was not happening for the entire war15725935532286346268265645790576

Hey guys, this problem is happening to one ally and nobody knows how to fix it… maybe clear the cache and data, or even try to reinstal the game.

Anybody had tried to fix this issue???

Did a ticket go in? I’ve had this problem since I started this game. Any fix?

same issue here friking game makers …

Can’t use war flags , I was back in my alliance hours before war started yet I’m still ex member and when I try to attack it comes up with unknown target. As it’s a POV challange I’m not happy

So this issue is global, let us know if you got support and resolution for it.

Commiserations.

If you are in a small alliance, you need to have returned to your alliance before any war started. The difference between start times with small vs 30v30 wars can be up to 3hrs.
