Okay, the title's a lie. This is not a guide for life. It is, however a guide for how to go Mixed builds. So assuming you've already started out, and gotten a 1-4 Bil volley, here's what you do. First Start exploring lands. (Do Not Build any buildings, just Explore land until you can get t2) T2: the 2nd set of 3 attack buildings. Consists of Forges (attack), Beastiaries (balanced), and War Cathedrals (defense). Next, build War Cathedrals, 3-5 Guilds, and (1) Beastiary. Keep doing this until your 20-23 land, or whenever you feel comfortable. Now, save up 480 million, and start replacing those War Cathedrals with Level 2 T3 buildings, just Summoning Circles for now. T3: The 3rd set of buildings,consisting of Subterranean Factory (Attack), War Aviary (Balanced), and Summoning Circles (Defense). After you've managed to fully convert to T3l2, (including the Beastiary to a War Aviary) start on the guilds. Upgrade them one by one to L3. Now, this is where EB's REALLY help. An active player of your size can make above 5 Billion a day simply by participating in item stages, attack stages, AND Spy stages. After you've done a few EB's and have managed to aquire 1-2 Bil, start upgrading those Summoning Circle's 1by1 to L3 (850 million each) ****After/before that, you can also throw in the guilds and upgrade them to L4 (900 million)**** Then, You're Here!. Now, though, you need to keep it up. This process can take anywhere from 1-3 weeks. **NOTE** I did NOT talk about allies, as this is a Mixed Build Guide, NOT an allies guide. HOWEVER, a general rule of thumb is to have 1-2 times your next land price in allies to stay at MP.
