Yea PCP your going to want to keep as little money visibly as possible.
Spend it on units or upgrades.
never leave a few k visible unless you have as many on defense.
(With a few heros as well.)

If you feel you have the extra $$$ to spend and you don't want your $ known, you can upgrade your firewall in the data center. If their hacker level is higher, though, they will still be able to see it. Also, if they have an agent get through, they will be able to identify your money.

I'm loosing more battles than I'm winning, but not by much.  I added another offensive hero, but when I do battles, I get the message that my heroes don't have enough leadership skills.  Is there any way to fix that, or does that just come with experience?  Oh, and I'm now ranked 1963, even though I feel like I'm getting my butt kicked on alot of these battles.

You'll get better w/ experience.  

Me, on the other hand, I can't win a battle now to save my life it seems.  

I don't know how I'm going to gain enough money to upgrade things.  I think I need another Thunderhawk and 3 more heroes.  Lol  Good luck to me....

@Mez, just sent you the aid you requested. What happened?

[Mezmoron]

I requested aid?  I don't even know how to do that...

I was attacking earlier and my heroes got low on HP.  Very odd why it said I requested it.

Hmmmm...I clicked on the clan page and it was flashing red with the word "requested". So I sent the cash over.

I just did a game poll.
The first question i said absolutely.
The second one i don't know what it said but i said absolutely on accident.

[phoenix1967]

I did the game poll for troop movement and said Absolutely Not.

[Izret101]

I was absolutely for moving troops to offense and defense.

I wish i saw that second poll i voted on....

I am 100% pro troop movement because my strength rating is was 500 when my rank was more than 2x that
So that would mean having more troops would have more effect on your rank.

[phoenix1967]

My thought is that it would make the game too defense-based and discourage attacking.

For example, if I know I'm not going to be online, I'll keep all my troops and heroes on D, right? Well, in order for someone to be able to mount a successful attack on me, they're going to have to bring everything they've got as well (considering the hero#s are equal) in order to have any opportunity to get any $$$ from me.

Then, if that becomes the way the game plays, the next strategy would be to cripple buildings with bombs. Again, everyone would build up guard forges and pump tick income into that.

If you don't have the ability to shift troops from O to D and back, you have to manage your resources much more efficiently. Which is what makes the strategy element of this game so much fun.

If they made you have to pay for troop movements like you pay for hero movements, then that could be a good way of keeping the strategic element, though. Like $1 per archer/pikeman/footman?  

[Izret101]

You would have to pay for it.
I can't think of anyway that would work besides paying.

They don't let you do anything for free in the game.
lol

Oh yea after letting my money acrew all night i bought 450 footmen.

[Pop Culture Portal]

I can't let my money acrue at all.  In fact, I keep getting attacked relentlessly!  Something that's pissing me off a bit...at 6pm every night, I click on the button to withdraw my investments (fuel/money).  When I click on the button, my computer sits for several seconds, and then pops back up to my Main Office page, and someone has attacked me and taken all my investment money AND what little money I DID have.  My money then sits at $0.  This has happened twice in a row.  It's as if they're waiting to take it from me.  I can't get anything built up.  Plus, overnight, I had apparently acrude over $2,000, which is now all gone thanks to several attacks launched on me overnight.  Augh!  This game is frustrating!

[phoenix1967]

PCP, are you keeping heroes on defense? You have to pay $50 per hero, but it's worth it to protect your $$$. Also, you may want to use an agent to do a 'sweep'; someone may have put a camera in your main office to identify when you are online or not. Lastly, if you have a data center, you may want to build up your firewall so people don't know how much money you have. And be sure to stash $1K in your bank.

Just suggestions.

I just attacked someone that I thouht I could beat because I had 8 heroes to his 6 and we had about the same number of total troops. He kicked my ass with bows! I don't know what level of blacksmith you have to have in order to get bows, but they were doing 24 damage to my heroes. OW!
