E-Day Field Guide is an independent fan information site for Gears of War: E-Day. It focuses on the decisions you make before and during a co-op session: how long to set aside, which Horde role to choose and what your platform supports.

A practical field guide

The mission-time planner adds the published Blitz, Siege and Horde duration ranges to your own queue and break allowance. It runs in your browser. It cannot predict teammates, mission variants, retries or a game’s servers.

Use the class comparison to match a support role to your preferred play style, then check the multiplayer matrix before inviting friends.

Editorial approach

We compile game facts from official announcements and store information, calculate tool results from explicit inputs and write explanations for the player’s task. We do not claim to have personally completed every mission. We avoid exact damage rankings and collectible routes without adequate supporting material. The complete reference list is on Sources; contact us when an answer needs correction.
