Dudes, you are doing it wrong. You are supposed to get us interested in the game first. Then when we get into it and are like "Oh my, I can play this for days!" ...Then you spam the top-up button. Not before. Obvious greed is obvious.
I agree on the need to be faster paced. On my sixth game, I went afk after setting my troops to attack. 8 warriors, 6 healers, and 6 archers all maxed out. Didn't bother with cavalry. I came back 20 minutes later after cooking supper and I had only lost one warrior and the enemy castle still had 2200 of 3000 health left. Something is wrong with that picture.
