I'm planning to start becoming more spy, because everyone says Hansels make way more. Spies are also the best in war. Right now my stats are: Attk/Def: 5,261,446 Spy/Def: 187,160 My plan is to add spy buildings on all of my new lands, and keep all my old attack buildings, instead of tearing down all of my buildings I've already worked for. This will keep my plunder high too. Is this a good plan?
You will be, what is called a Hansel Buster./hybrid. It takes away some and gives other. Not a bad build to be honest in the grand scheme of things. If you plan to war that way you will want towers of you do anything other than Indy.
Only real "hansel buster" if that's what you want to call them is a tank... A hybrid without towers and Bf'a is simply stronger than none and weaker than both in my opinion.
For EE, yeah. Get towers. For OSW, and other off system war, only get towers if you want to protect a ton of allies because past that the attack troops and plunder you lose from being a tank makes your useless. All towers do is protect. Keep the Attack hi and you can piss a lot of people off with a hybrid build.
I plan to get rid of all of my attack buildings and convert to hansel much later. Keeping them now will keep my eb payouts high so I can keep building more spies.
Bull crap. Anyone who thinks towers are not desirable for osw have not fully considered their benefits. I can think of a ton...
My plan is to get to 15 hoarfrost lands, and then 5 Abyss. Right now I have 7 Hoarfrost unlocked, 5 have Elven Temples and one has a Unkari Ice Tree. I'm going to put more Ice Trees on the last 10 Hoarfrost. Once I get to the abyss I'll build whatever the spy building is. I'm following a guide I cant remember the name, but it said to do 15 HL, and then 15 HF, and then 5 Abyss. And then after that I guess I'll tear down buildings and replace them with spy.
