Haha   Strike that....Just upgraded to Hero Altar 9 and got my 10th hero after another round of attacking.  Having 3 Thunderhawks is really helping I think.  Not many people and defend 10 Heroes and 3000 troops.

Maxed my units with the money i got in school and over night.

I am going to try and start being more offense now.
I want to upgrade my seige factory so i ven get new sieges since i don't feel like buying lower ones to upgrade them in another day.

[Izret101]

Hero Altar level 10 now.
If i didn't waste my efforts attacking i would have gotten it in faster than however long it has taken me...

Still sitting at level 9.

I think I figured something out regarding rankings. I had a couple of successful attacks recently and had heroes gain experience. I beefed up my D because I got pimped 2x today. This last ranking at 7PM, I dropped 10 ranks from 860 to 870. I'm theorizing that the more troops you have on D in proportion to the total troops, the game will rank you down for it. To further support this, for awhile I was just building up on O and not attacking or doing anything else, and it ranked me up.

Could be something to this...?

Been upgrading my barracks a lot lately (level 6 now). Still having a hard time coming up with the $13500 needed for the next hero altar upgrade. I've been getting attacked a lot more during the day lately. Maybe I need to upgrade my firewall (currently lev 6) first.

No one posted in this thread for 7 days. I am amazed.

[Izret101]

I am upgrading barracks and buying units.
Thanks for bringing back the thread.
I didn't have the heart to do it myself.

BTW i was getting owned pretty bad for awhile.
I haven't been hit in 2 days though

[phoenix1967]

Seems that mez has been doing the most ass-kicking lately.

[Mezmoron]

Hehehehe

[phoenix1967]

Finally got to upgrade my hero altar!

And I had a couple of bomb attacks succeed! Very satisfying. No risk of retaliation unless they have clan members near my rank. Heh heh.

[Izret101]

When you send bombs they don't know it was you unless you expressly tell the person you sent them.

Bombs leave no info about the sender.

[phoenix1967]

That's great! And that's the way it should be because it's a spy attack. Revenge is sweet!

[phoenix1967]

End of the round.

Mez and I finished in the top 400/450 out of over 3500 players. Not bad for a first try a month into the round.

Learned a few things. Definitely have to build up that hero altar and blacksmith lot sooner than I thought.And the fortification upgrades seemed pretty useless in retrospect.

Fun stuff.

@ Izret, thanks for the recommendation.
