Indeed, I only play noob games and mediocre games, but I try to stay away from advanced games, because as you have so clearly pointed out, the strategy of the game dies with the iowa D:
Hrm, so agreed iowa is imbalanced in the advanced battles...
But for the lesser ones...it doesn't just stall him when you rebuild villages, eventually you get far more money than he, and he will try to come forward to take a hack at your other villages. When he does this, he is fair game for being killed by the SAM(If your good enough at it) and in the time that hes being hatched, you can sit by a tier 1 village to build it quickly, then do all the rearming you need
Ah I see....but yeah it is SO worth it, if you have about double his income, spending 200$ to make him lose 150 is very much worth it. I don't know how 11 speed vs 11 speed battles go...so indeed both of our advice should be heeded, depending on who your fighting
actually every time i've done it its worked. The only people that use that iowa strategy aren't in fact good, so this works quite well. They can destroy your tier one, but with your income over theirs, you can easily create a village on their tier one, or tier two even on some maps. See you think your right, because your in the top 10, but really only a small group of people play with all upgrades, my word is to the everyman ^^
Hehe, I'll just TELL you guys the anti Iowa strategy.....rush with sam! you'll destroy their first 2 tiers and when they get the iowa, they won't have any money to use it. The first thing is usually them destroying all your villages with it, but they will only get or two, and if you just keep rushing you can wipe em out
lmao I know one simple rule to go by in a fight, and it outdoes EVERYONE...the only people I can't beat are people who have far more upgrades than I. The strategy is solid, and it will get you up to level 10 pretty fast....if you play enough. I'm not going to tell it, but theres nothing you can't learn from analyzing your lost matches
Agreed, freeze is a downgrade...
I died on level 2..no kidding! I was playing w/o cannon, pretentious, yes, but far more fun. Anyway...things got out of hand, things sped up, and I got mauled by a 20 man grenade group. There comes a point in the level where the enemy gets overpowered...
Just a few notes...You guys seriously can't be complaining about having to let go of space for a few seconds...really? And to the guy who so vigilantly 'opted' for the ice upgrade, well...theres a time for words like opted, and this isn't one of them.
Fun game..I like the ability to control the army, to the extent you can, and the choices are balanced, playable, and...fun...yeah.
Thanks for the game oh great maker
Upgrade all your houses to level 4, and then open up the government building panel(Click on govt building).
You need to upgrade your govt building now-You should have enough steel and food, and close, but not enough wood or stone. Unless you already have enough wood and stone, go to the market and buy 10k of both(wood and stone, that is).
You SHOULD be able to afford it, unless you cheated and bought resources you were supposed to wait for earlier on, if so just buy as much of it as you can and wait for the rest to come.
Now, build a warehouse, lookout tower, barracks, hotel, and then upgrade all your production buildings to level 5, IN that order.
While you wait for your production buildings to finish building, after queueing the first level, upgrade all of your houses to level 5, then go back and finish the production buildings.
Wait until you have 3k wood, and then go to the market and buy 3k more. Now upgrade six level 1 houses to level 2, then go back to production stats and set your values up(Still at a ratio of Food/Wood/Stone/Iron 1:5:1:1), doubling them as they are will most likely suffice.
Upgrade all remaining level 1 houses to level 2, and double your production ratios again.
You should have a decent amount of income now, so let the cash flow in, and upgrade every house to level three.
Now go to city peripheral, and upgrade each production building to level two. Go back to production stats and write a new set of values, with a ratio of Food:wood:stone:iron 1:4:2:1 while still keeping the amount of jobs to about double of the population, while keeping in mind your base production just doubled.
Woh, sorry about that, the first part is a little jumbled, but still heed my message here...so heres the rest of the walkthrough.
Set your capacity ratios so that Stone, iron, and food are all the same, and wood is at 5x each of them(Ie stone-400 iron-400 food-400 wood-2000) and you can forget about diamond, as it doesn't matter now, nor will it if you use this quick-kill strategy. build 4 more houses, as quickly as you get the resources for it, but don't buy them, as you'll need that money for this next step.
They should also be set at a level that leaves far more jobs than civilians, so you'll never be losing any production from your people.
Now build 6 mGreat! Beat it twice more, at 42 days and XX days. And...heres the walkthrough I promised.
Start by choosing the fire city, its magic is far better than the thunder/lightning city, and will come in handy when its time to storm the enemy. During the construction of your city, you should be working fast, and wasting no time.
Week One
First thing you need to do is go the City peripheral and create One level one Farm, one level one quarry, one level one lumber mill, and one level one iron mine.
Now go to the inner city, and create One market and 5 civilian housing buildings.
You should be out of wood, so go to the market and buy 3500 wood, and create 2 more houses.
Upgrade two of the houses to level two, and then go into production stats.
Quite easy, first time I played I beat the enemy in like 130 days or so, next time it was like 95, and that was taking my sweet ass time to build a massive army...
The game is quite easy, Just build one farm, one lumber mill, one stone quarry, and one iron mine. From that point you should get civilian housing, and keep upgrading it. Go to production stats and you can increase the production ratios so that any population can work off of these production buildings..and you won't need to waste money on them. Once you have done this and increased your pop for about 2 weeks, then start saving resources, get a barracks, and start training troops. I'm going to play again, and once I reevaluate it a bit, I'll give something more thorough ^^
