    Updated, thank you for feedback. No plans to include eb or building acronyms as there are too many.
     
  2. noob = op
     
  3. I can't stop laughing about defining lol. I thought that was pretty universal.
    I'm not literally laughing out loud, I'm more so CIAL. (Chuckling internally a lot)

    But in all seriousness, some of this could be handy for first timers.
     
  4. can you define 'ok' for me? I forgot what it stood for.
     
  5. Already a more in depth version of this called 'The Kaw Hand Book'
     
  6. I did not see pnf (pluck n fudgeorama) or pnz (pinned and zerod)
     
  7. Wth is with noobs making threads for threads we already have?


     
  8. The only good part of this thread.
     
  9. Elegant in it's simplicity. Would likely be appreciated by anyone that can learn something new from it.
     
  10. WC = Water Closet = Toilet

    WL = War Leader
     
  11. Good job OP! Could you put in the combined terms like HLBC, LLBC,HFBC and etc? I think new users can really user this guide.
     
  12. What's the difference? :?
     
  13. s= spy when put behind dt or att
    def=defense
    sdt=spy def tower

  14. Support
     
  15. This is great, this game has a huge playerbase that seems to know all of this from years ago but to new/returning players this helps a ton.

    Can anyone make a guide specifically for acronyms used in wars and add in what abbreviations are used as well? A player had to tell me how to report spy/attk power like say I have half a bar of troops and a full bar of spys if my wc (war commander) says report I have to estimate my bar % and say 50/100. Meaning I have 50% troops and full spies.

    Theres a lot more abbreviations/acronyms that they used I cant even remember. I didnt however know sdt/adt until I read this.
     
  16. You may have more than me very good work. Check out my kaw guides 2.5 in the guides section in the menu I do have a terms glossary with some acronyms 
     
  17. Bbc- big black carnation
