I know there are already a lot of these but this is just my opinion STARTING OFF Build up any defences as soon as u start to avoid any atks from ppl who think they got the best atk but are actually terrible. People normally dont upgrade their spy defences until they have a suitable amount of troops. If u have a good spy atk and def u can avoid scouts and gain money from those ppl who have no spy defence. By the time these ppl start building there spies up u will have a good number of troops and already be ahead Trust me on this one. I didnt do this at first and it took me ages to realise wot was happenin I will leave it up to anyone else who wishes to add to this thread and good luck tk anyone who uses this strategy
You can if you suck really badly... okish guide. Not really accurate. Horrible grammar. But other then that pretty decent for a starter guide. Except for the farming on no spy defence part. That's just slack to do against newbs.
I'm surprised this wasn't deleted. I guess that they don't delete old strategy threads because it's a smallish section.
