You can say defending, but that would man you would have to move out all of your high attack heroes because Highest attack hero defends.

But in most situations, attack is the way to go.
Thanks for the response. I was trying to wrap my head around it w/respect to your guide for taking historics (which is awesome, btw). I was thinking that I don't really get the wiseman gear aspect when you know you're NOT going to win. In other words, if I'm going to lose, say, the first 5 waves attacking a lvl12, I'd rather have the attacker gear on so I can take out as many troops as possible. I'm going to lose all 500k troops in those waves with either gear, so I figured the attacker gear would help my troops do as much damage as possible in the process. Sorry if I derailed this thread a bit.
