What is the reason for keeping a pirate base to surrender to? I mean, I get that it's used to lower your rank but couldn't you just attack players and surrender there?

Keeping an NPC base is nice because: 1) it's cheaper to surrender to (I think) 2) it keeps you off revenge lists 3) if you keep one that is really low, you can drop PR faster, because you'll be losing more per surrender. It's not necessary, just a quality of life thing I thought I'd suggest.

We have 3 guys in 2poor with really unfortunate donated:received numbers. I want people to feel free to request as much as possible, especially newer players. And I understand it can be hard to find open requests unless you check in often. However, it seems like 1 or more people are taking things a bit overboard. I really don't want to set hard limits, because I really don't want to police that, and it looks like it's only a problem with 3 guys of 50. But I don't know what to do. Options: Kick them. Yell at them again as I did a month ago. Instruct the guild to only donate theives until their ratios improve. Do nothing and comfort myself with the fact that they must need those troops more than me.

Keep requesting and if you can toss a couple troops out now and then don't be shy. Keep the troops flowing. You're good. I guess my point was, if someone has time to receive 700+, they have time to donate more than 25.

I got curious and looked through the guild list. Noticed at least 1 person who had 0 donated and 700 received, so I imagine that RVT isn't talking about someone like me with 230-300. I like the use the guild troops all the time, and my donated amount is definitely starting to fall behind my received(especially since getting the 8-person guild ship). I donate as much as I can, so I'd want people to request more often so I can feel less guilty about requesting as often as I do. Sometimes I request troops, battle and am ready for more troops 30m later, but I don't like to see my back-to-back requests so I hold off. I'm on pretty frequently and am entirely willing to pump out as many troops as people request. I'll build any type of troop too, so if some of the lower rank people wanted to play with witch doctors or something just put a note in.

RVT posted:We have 3 guys in 2poor with really unfortunate donated:received numbers. I don't think this applies to me necessarily hopefully, but I am reluctant to donate on general due to how low level my guys are compared to what others can provide. I feel like I'd just be taking up space better used for far more powerful minions.

Ok, so some people are taking this the wrong way, which is what I feared when I posted. If you're not 8-25 donated to 150-700+ received, my previous posts were definitely not aimed at you. So two things, 1) We talked about this briefly when all the Android guys came in, the guild stance is, we'd rather have requests filled fast than wait for the absolute best troops.* If you see a request open, no matter what level your troops are, stuff that hole. Gunners are always good troops to donate. *if a request specifies a particular level or type of troop, defer to that. 2) We want everyone requesting as much as possible, so don't let anything I've posted make you think twice about requesting. My goal in posting is to get the people that have been a bit heavy on the requesting, and very light on the donating, to bring that slightly closer to balance. tl dr - Request constantly, donate whenever you see an open request. You'll be good.

Someone with a fully explored map, please take a screen shot and post it here (and add it to the op). Perhaps spoiler tag it in case goons like the mystery.

One of you 2poor guys should totally quit the game and give your spot to me because nobody in lljk contributes to perks

Does anyone use the theif? Should I bother upgrading her? I already can max out all my poo poo super quickly without her, though I'm only at Ph4

I already can max out all my poo poo super quickly without her, though I'm only at Ph4 Personally I don't, but it could be a strategy thing. I find the most effective tactic is to get brutes heading towards mortars from one direction then once the mortars are occupied bringing in a wave of dps from the other side. Thieves seem to me like a way of getting something out of it even if you're getting owned. PH6 for what that's worth.

Also, the thief special ability has been temporarily taken out of the game and replaced with berserk, because it was bugged, so using thieves right now is not recommended.

I spent some time surrendering to a low rank NPC base to drop ~150 ranks. There is no penalty for surrendering, other than losing rank. So if you are having trouble finding people to 3 star, surrendering a bunch to drop ranks will help you find easier opponents.

Only problem with winning our first war against Germans is that we'll just have to do it all over again a while later.
