How many battles are there in total for the Galactic War?
I died at the 9th battle, so I'm wondering if tomorrow I should continue (as I can train up some new characters at lvl 1 which I haven't used in the war so far), or should I just reset and start over regardless?
Is there a big reward at the end or something that maybe is worth continuing the war for? versus restarting and risking not completing again?
GW has 12 battles, so 12 reward chests. The value does increase as you go higher, and the last one definitely has more than the rest. But I don't think it's better *enough* that you'll get as much from the last 4 as you would for resetting the first eight tomorrow. Plus you run the risk of not finishing those last four anyway, even with your full team, as they're getting harder the farther you go.
My ally code: 296-673-769. Wish we could have more than 35.
That's news to me too. But it makes sense. It doesn't refresh till you tell it to, and you get one refresh per day. So maybe you can finish out the round from yesterday, then use your refresh to start today's?
But will your team be fresh, or still hurting from any losses you suffered in finishing yesterday's war, I wonder.

Oh I see... the next day you could try to finish versus resetting, because presumably your guys are reset? I dunno, this is the first time I haven't finished it. Should be interesting.

Hmm don't think it works that way, because the characters only reset when you press the button.
Question with Galactic War and the healing in between battles, does that also give a little heal boost to characters on the sidelines or just the ones who finished the previous battle?

That's what I would have expected in which case no idea what OP is talking about.
As for the heal boost, if there is one, it's barely noticeable to me, and it does not seem to affect anyone on the sidelines at all. (I would have noticed this today after yanking a couple of guys with near-zero health.)
sorry for the confusion. I guess my scenario is a fringe case and maybe not so common.
my case is simply this.
i have 10 characters. 5 of them are up to date at my player level. the other 5 are lagging 5 levels behind.
I have limited resources each day. I can only apply those resources successfully to my top 5 characters each day.
I use my top 5 in GW and get to only battle #7. I don't use my 5 weaker characters to battle since they would not be able to win anyway.
The next day, the game resets and I have some more resources. Hence I am wondering if it's worth trying to strengthen my 5 weaker characters and continue the GW from yesterday.
That's it.
I always end up applying my resources to my PvP team, or risk falling behind in that. So my weaker 5 characters don't get stronger, and I will never be able to finish GW with only 5 viable characters.
You can retreat during a battle and swap out characters, then return to the battle. Your toons and enemy will have same health, but buffs seem to disappear. This allows even low levels to contribute.

Thanks I had no idea at all retreat was possible. just found the retreat option hidden in the sub menu. wow.

That's correct. You can finish the war from day before. Then reset and everyone will be fresh AFTER the reset ... then timer restarts for day (ends at midnight US pacific time). Just tried it and that's what happend for me. So I just need 4 hrs to be able to start another war.
