    If you're a smaller player, the low lands may seem like a lot gold. It can be a lot of gold if you don't know how quickly you can get it.

    Step one
    Ask for a volley on WC. Most people will volley since you make money and so do the volleyers. It's a win/win for everyone.

    Step Two
    Don't use any of the money until they're done volleying you. A good volley gives you about 70-100M

    Explore one land and buy a workshop on it. Upgrade it to lvl3. Continue this process until you're down to 20M Note that if you want one or two guilds buy them. IF YOU ARE PLANNING ON BEING A SPY BUILD, DO NOT PURCHASE ALL GUILDS AT ONCE, YOU SHOULD FINISH LOW LANDS WITH ATTACK BUILD AND THEN CONVERT

    Step Three
    With the $20M, buy an ally. Then look on WC for a clan doing either The Forgotten Ones (TFO) or The Reckoning. Don't do Warbeast. It is not a good paying Epic Battle

    Step Four
    Once the EB (Epic Battle) is over, use the money to buy land, convert your workshops to forges, and allies.

    Since you're new to this game, let me briefly teach you about the importance of allies. ALLIES GIVE YOU 90% of your plunder. On this account, without anything invested in allies, I would only make about 2M a hit. With allies I make about 8 Million. So trust me, allies are the key to plunder. Ask any successful player in KaW they will tell you the same thing.

    Step Five
    I recommend after you have 15 lands, get a $200M ally. At 20 lands buy another $500M and at 25 buy a 1.5B. Then you can always convert to War Aviary, Sub Factory etc.

    There are two required things though.
    Patience
    Being active


    People will troll but if anyone has a suggestion to make or if I left something out feel free to let me know and I will edit
    :)
     
  2. Not a bad guide. I give it a 6 or 7/10
     
  3. Thanks. @K9
     
  4. Was so gonna say already done. But it seems legit.
     
  5. Re: Attack Guide

    Read my guide. Note this is only for growing rapidly; I will update it on plunder making soon.

    viewtopic.php?f=6
     
  6. So many other threads already made.
     
  7. This one's not bad, though.
     
  8. i just unlocked the highlands today, thanks to this guide.
     
  9. Workshops?
     
  10. yeah. that really needs to be "beastiary"
     
  11. btw - everyone who said this is a good guide...is wrong.
     
  12. Its kind of an old guide that I'm going to upgrade. And Beastiary isn't my recommendation. This is because when you are a lower stat player, earning gold is more important than a defense. This is because no one really attacks you anymore. A lot of people are EB Fairies. So that is why I say go with Forge, you will be more successful with attacking and earn more plunder.
     
  13. you are still a newb. you shouldn't make guides.

    you told people to build tier 1 buildings. the only time to build tier 1 is during the tutorial.

    and everyone except pure spies should have at least 1 balanced troop building.
     
  14. Beast has better plunder...atk buildings have the worst plunder :-|
     
  15. Join a clan running Hauntings and you can go straight to T3 after you buy 12 lands.
     
  16. that isn't the only reason. 1 balanced building = more hits per unload.
    if you have 1 balanced and nothing else but attack buildings, you will still get the extra hits that a balanced building provides.



    i am a big fan of pure balanced builds in general, btw.
