What do you expect hte badges willl be? get 1 star- 15 points... get 2 stars-30 points... and so on, and last few stars are 60's? they all take time. you may as well keep ur computer on for a week and have all those points. ITS NOT GETTING BADGES
all you need for strategy is horde your units until phoenix charges, then rush. use meteor and arrows as often as possible, then use invincibility and double damage when its available.
to beat trial 5 you need these units especially: Mermaid, succubus, goblin. and also i suggest: flying armor: dragon rider, taurus. spells you will need are: Invincibility, double damage, meteor, pheonix. upgrade all of those to level 5 before you try the last trial....
