In-Depth Hansel Guide With Photos *Updated*

Discussion in 'Strategy' started by Era, Mar 9, 2012.

  1. Here is a guide to becoming a high level Hansel (1 attack building and the rest spy buildings)

    -When you first make your account,after the tutorial, go to world chat and ask for a volley.
    -Use this gold to buy more land and put level 2 guilds on all of them except one where you will put a stable building:
    Guild:
    [​IMG]
    Stable:
    [​IMG]
    -Continue until you have 15 lands.
    -At this point you should have:
    -1 Castle level 1
    -13 Guilds level 2
    -1 Stable level 3
    -Now continue saving up gold and upgrade all your guilds to level 3 and make your stable a Beastiary.
    -Upgrade that Beastiary to level 3.
    Bestiary:
    [​IMG]
    -Now buy at least 3 Billion gold in allies to bring in more gold!
    -Now you should have:
    -1 Castle level 1
    -13 Guilds level 3
    -1 Beastiary level 3
    -Continue Buying land and putting level 3 guilds on them until you buy your 25th land
    -Then sell your Beastiary and buy a War Aviary
    War Aviary:
    [​IMG]
    -Upgrade your War Aviary to level 3
    -Now have at least 10 Billion gold in allies
    -Now for the tedious part, upgrade ALL of your guilds to level 4!
    Level 4 Guild:
    [​IMG]
    -After that is done, save up and upgrade you castle to level 2!
    Level 2 Castle:
    [​IMG]
    -Congratulations! you have completed the lowlands!
    [​IMG]
    -Now for the Highlands
    -Buy 10 lands and place level 4 guilds on all of them.
    -Now save up 24 Billion gold and sell your War Aviary:(
    -Immediately Buy a Circle of Elements where your War Aviary was and upgrade it to level 3!
    Circle of Elements:
    [​IMG]
    -Now you need 20 Billion gold in allies :eek:
    -Now save up 29 Billion gold each and sell 5 Guilds and make level 3 Stronghold of Shadows
    Stronghold of Shadow:
    [​IMG]
    -Now complete the highlands with level 4 Guilds
    -Convert 1 by 1 to level 3 SoS
    -Now make sure you have all level 3 Stronghold of Shadow, 1 Castle level 2, and a level 3 Circle of Elements
    -Great! Now your done and you are a full blown Hansel build!! Do whatever you want, run a clan etc...
    Thanks for reading i hope this helped :mrgreen:
    :Edit: How To Play as a Hansel! (I may add pictures later)
    EB Hansel:
    • As it says above 1 attack building is good because of the fact that plunder doesn’t change much per hit, this make a lot more than an attack build of equal number of hits as your ally plunder is high
    • Lots of spies, this allows versatility! You can not only assassinate the attack phases but you can scout and steal too!
    • Just hit and save gold and because you’re not at war you generally don’t need to bank your gold Just follow the above guide for the growth part.
    • Good luck and have fun but don’t be like me at first and get impatient… don’t upgrade prematurely!
    • Also as soon as you can in the beginning hit the reckoning, it pays well and has an item phase :p

    War Hansel:
    • First off bank your gold in attack potions as these can’t be burned or wasted.
    • Stay at max ally plunder or you won’t make much per hit 
    • Keep yourself pinned and fight like that, listen to what your clan needs you to do and work together, remember you’re stronger together than as an individual!
    • You can pin troops on quests(Both OSW and System) and epic battles(OSW only)
    • Keep no gold out ever! You will lose it!!
    • Many people go pure spy for war just because you don’t have to worry about pinning troops, this does give a little breathing space but you lose all chances to attack

    If you have any ideas to add please let me know
    Thanks to Bellemorte for suggesting that I add the how to play as a Hansel section. Belle you’re the best mod eva!
     
  2. Re: In-Depth Hansel Guide With Photos

    Good job, but I prefer to build forges until 20lands and then to convert to lvl4 guilds
     
  3. Re: In-Depth Hansel Guide With Photos

    Lol thanks and i guess that is up to personal preference this is just the way i liked it.
     
  4. Re: In-Depth Hansel Guide With Photos

    Cool but apart from that it's a pretty good guide :)
     
  5. Re: In-Depth Hansel Guide With Photos

    Also as soon as you buy the 900m land you should upgrade all guilds to level 4, this allows for faster growth due to a raised plunder gain. Versus doing lvl 3 guilds to lc.
     
  6. Re: In-Depth Hansel Guide With Photos

    Convert to Aviary an lvl 4 guilds when next land is more expensive. Save up 27b for your T4, the extra gold left over from selling the aviary is useful.

    Thirdly, go higher in the highlands before converting to SoS. It's easier to get HLBC guild hansel than HLBC SoS hansel. You can always convert later.
     
  7. Re: In-Depth Hansel Guide With Photos

    Is this like the 10 th hansel guide
     
  8. Re: In-Depth Hansel Guide With Photos

    Thanks for your input -MissBehave-:)
     
  9. Re: In-Depth Hansel Guide With Photos

    But yes i agree, there are other much more extensive guides. Not to forget that you are not a particualrly big hansel yourself.
     
  10. Re: In-Depth Hansel Guide With Photos

    WOW CAPS LOCK RAGE! I WUZ HOPING SOMEONE WOULD WRITE A HANSEL GUIDE FOR THIS WEEK! WE HAVEN'T HAD A NEW ONE IN PRACTICALLY 6 DAYS!
     
  11. Re: In-Depth Hansel Guide With Photos

    True there are quite a few hansel guides. Some are crap but this one is well put together.

    Apparently there are quite a few ways that work for different players. Maybe the OP's strategy will work better for someone than the other guides.

    Good job overall.
     
  12. Re: In-Depth Hansel Guide With Photos

    No stats though, I'm pretty sure Vandals blows everyone's away. If you don't give some statistics of your hansel hitting then it's ehh...
     
  13. Re: In-Depth Hansel Guide With Photos

    This is for growing and building if you want to fight and hit hard then you must give up plunder at first.
     
  14. Re: In-Depth Hansel Guide With Photos
