These guys would be below my attack range if they werent in an enemy clan.

Give me some time to build up some turns and I will have them begging for mercy

It would be appreciated (by me) if it were posted on how research points should be allocated.

Bad News, I can't attack this clan as they are too weak and out of my attack range. Sorry guys...I tried.

Attack range? You can't attack someone that you are to much stronger than even if they are in an enemy clan? If you can't attack them and several of the other members that are close to them can't attack guys like me might be in trouble :?

Oh yeah, should I build a airforce and/or navy? Right now I only have infantry and vehicles.

You can only attack people within your range, None of the targets are within myrange and unless one of them gets above $60,000 or so I won't be able to participate. I can still spy though

their top 2 powers each have over 100 F-22 Raptors, which CANNOT HURT GROUND UNITS

Send in Heavy Tanks and SAM Missle Launchers and they are meat.

I'm in... and i have quite an army built up already...

I'd have more cash, but my morale is too low to be able to attack anymore...

Wow, my army is pathetic. Need advice on whether I should build sea units and air units and what I should build for vehicles and infantry.

Edit: just to show what I have to work with

Humvee 4
Hover Tank 6
Heavy Artillery 6
SAM Tank 4
Heavy Tank 9
APC 1

Thief 0
Spy 2
Sniper 2
Rifle Infantry 30
Rocket Soldier 13
Flame Thrower 13


So now, what should I buy? I have $92,000.

In the beginning use your theives to acquire the money you need. IF you are habitually low on Funds I recommend a large amount of rocket soldiers but Heavy Tanks will be critical against powerful opponents.

Do not neglect base defenses if you plan on being attacked and don't hesitate to use spies. Coordinated attacks will prove highly effective in clan warfare.

You guys should try setting a time and a date for when your turns and funds are built up, then launching a massive strike against your opponents weakest to strongest, killing as many of their nations as possible

Build a couple thieves to get money also. Use the market judiciously: if the markup's not bad, buy units rather than use turns to acquire them. If and when you build a navy, I consider the destroyers and cruisers to be the best units, since they can hit enemy attackers. Subs are good to defend against enemy navies, but the Attack Boats aren't that useful IMHO. Carriers are good only if you're using the Raptors, Hornets, and JSFs.

Give me 2 hours. I have a decent amount of men waiting. But currently I have $175. Put $100,000 in the bank until Feb. 8

:lol: I currently have $41. $20,000 in the bank until the 30th, $50,000 for the 31st, and $50,000 for Feb. 1st. Kinda annoying, though, because I did lose a decent portion of my army hitting Talimani Clan (about 44 units total, roughly half humvees).

Buying 6 apaches, 4 raptors, 6 tanks, 4 humvees, 15 riflemen, 5 rockets, and 2 thieves.

Don't you think that a certain type of a attack is better than a regular attack?

Edit: Maybe someone should send aid to The Dark...

Depends on what the other guy has. If he can't hit air, send an air attack. If he's weak against ground, send in tanks and infantry.
Edit: Maybe someone should send aid to The Dark...
Nah. Unless they ALL swarm me in the next hour I'll be able to hold. I've got some base defenses too.

True. I need to consolidate my holdings. I've got over 11 000 m^2 of land undeveloped.

Well I hope they do declare wr then, my army is rebuilt after coming off a successful blitzkrieg.

I just need to build up some turns and then I can really start tearing it up, does anyone need aid though? I can spare $10000 or so

BTW don'tneglect your theives, can't understate it enough because they work with only %5 morale and can really boost your coffers.
