U just proved u dont think cause used support button and posted when you got no ides or experience, im glad u never used guides for KaW. Give yourself a cookie.
The devs answered the question, idiot. The mechanics vary. There isn't an exact formula. There are rough guesstimates. Buy a few more than you need. Getting fixated on the exact number is as silly as it sounds.
Only one idiot here are you picking on newbies and if it works with troop buildings then it should work with spy buildings. It sounds logic for me, i don't know about u...
Yeah, sorry my bad. You're right. All you need to know is how each building is weighted and how the devs vary the plunder numbers depending on the number and mix of buildings you have at a point in time. Clearly you're the genius. Why don't you toddle off and work it out for *every* variation of building mix. KaW needs you champ.
On low lands I went with at least cost of next land. Now I just keep as many as I can, more is always better then less
