Why not just post the questions?
Good point!

Reg.
1)How do people increase their net by so much with such little land when they start and the same amount of land at the end of a run?
2)What are some pros and cons for being in a clan?
3)What is the best race solo?
4)What is the best race to help benefit your clan if you are in one?
5)How to increase your net productively in a run and not wasting it?
6)Ways to learn the game better and create a good strategy?



Just trying to learn the game and will help me understand more advance strategy and productivity then a out of the womb noob. It will be greatly appreciated if posted or message whatever you like. Thanks for your help and if there is any more tips or advice you want to give other than answering my questions posted I will greatly appreciate it. Thank you!

Good questions!

1)

In a leader strat, a player has 100% of their land in huts. They use the loyalty and leaders their Huts create to Feast and Loot in General's Hut. This makes lots of food and cash. They're not making troops, they don't have an army to look after, so they're increasing their resources. That gives them Net.

So a player doesn't always need to take land at the start of their run to increase their Net, and they don't need to have an army all the time. That's why you're seeing my Net jump without my land increasing, and the same will go for players further down the ranks.

The rest of your questions are a little more subjective.

2) Joining the right kind of clan can be fantastic as a newer player. Clans can teach you to work together, formulate plans and join in clan wars (which are awesomely fun). But they can also be clans where there's no direction or goal, and you're working independently. Finding the right clan can be tricky.

Clans allow you to have unlimited attacks on other clans (If set to War) and they allow you to send unlimited aid between yourselves and your Allies. Clans can also protect you with troops while Sharing Defenses. By the same token, other clans can attack you as many times as they want (if set to war). There are also no losses for attacking a higher/lower opponent when War is declared. As a newer player, I would join a clan to get a better feel for the game and the way clans operate. It doesn't matter if they're not the best clan around. You are likely to get hit more, however.

3) The best race solo depends on what you're doing. As an Indyer (a player who makes net with troops), Rat or Lizard are the best options. You will get much faster Net gain than Leader players. But your Networth as an Indyer depends on the amount of land you can scrape up run by run. Eventually, you won't be able to get any higher because you can't get any more land. As a leader player, the best Leader race depends on what you're trying to achieve. Wolves make the most food and loyalty. Marten makes more cash. Stoats can be used for aggressive play. Those are the main races people tend to use. I imagine at this stage you're using Markets/Barracks/Foragers to balance making troops and keeping your resources in green. That's good to teach you the basics, but eventually you'll want to move on to playing Leaders or Indying.

4) This will depend entirely on what your clan is trying to achieve. If they need someone to make troops, you should be a Rat or a Lizard. If they need cash, Marten is the way to go. Mostly, it doesn't matter, whatever race you play will normally slot in fine in any clan.

5) Don't worry about increasing your Net productively. You'll learn a lot by trial and error. Moving to a different strategy is a good idea eventually, but for now, don't be afraid to attack as much as you can every run.

6) Join a good clan, ask questions, read Wolf Bite's Journal, generally browse the Strategy section. There should be a lot here that will help. Basically, everything you're doing at the moment is great, and can only help you.

New player this topic looks the right one. Just was wondering if I should join turbo or regular or both? I play frost and flame and I saw that you have a forum kind of like theirs and thats where I got help from them, in their forum, so I was wondering which is better?

Turbo has much faster gameplay, usually has a theme to each round, and resets each month. Reg is much slower, has no theme and resets only if the code needs updating or someone locks it down completely as is happening now.

Turbo is actully set to reset in 2 days so you probably won't get to do much there until the 29th.

So it is really a matter of preference. A lot of players use turbo as a way to mess around and learn things whereas reg is generally considered to be the place where reputation are made and plans are carried out to their fullest extent.

I generally suggest that new players join turbo initially to get a feel for turn use with the faster turn rate and move to reg once they have a grasp of the basic mechanics.

Thanks for the tip I guess I can wait for the 29th. Then I will try out regular. Thanks for the help!

Welcome to the game. Yeah I would agree with shadow since I started with reg first...lets just say it was an interesting way to learn until I was told to join turbo where I have gain a lot of experience from, I believe even though other doubt it. Plus I started this thread so you can see how new I truly am if you got any questions you can feel free to PM me or anybody else. Some will help while others will probably ignore. Have fun!  :D
