Overview
We’ve all been there. We got banished for a reason we werent aware of…what did we do to deserve it? We were only making stakes for our defenses….
Make Stakes….Get banished
Stakes are rarely useful, even in those rare cases it is a waste. Both Darkwood and Whitewood are limited, not to mention weigh a lot. By making stakes you are effectively crippling your village and the more angry villagers will most likely start a vote to banish you permenantly, Which if succeeds, means not only you are gone from the village, but during the vote you cannot access things such as the storage.
This is a Communist village.
And like anything communism, you will likely be missing food
Nobody owns anything Don’t bother keeping any personal possessions. The second you stepped into the village, you agreed that your possessions were now the village’s possessions. Any attempt of holding onto items will most likely be considered hoarding and you will be banished. The only things you should ever have on your person is anything related to the task you are doing Or a weapon for the night attack.
The Moat Gods are superstition.
The moat is only ever a side project. Anything better you can do with your stamina is always prioritized over the moat(Except house defense) as the added defense pales in comparison to the other better construction options. While you won’t likely get banished for this. You will definately have a stern talking to by some of the villagers for dumping all your stamina into the moat.
Always Scout the night attack.
Goes without saying, Always scout even if the Prediction is 100% accurate because your scouting adds progress to discovering lairs, Which are important to destroy especially later on when all of the defenses have been built. Failing to do so hurts your village’s chances of survival.
House Defense finishes last.
House defense is the last thing everyone upgrades. It’s personal. And requires the Attackers to stampede through the towers, Walls, and the defenders themselves in order for house defense to function. You also have to be hiding, Which at times will simply doom the defenders. If the attackers in the night managed to go through all that, chances are there are simply too many and they will manage to break into your home anyway
Scout lairs, not forests
Crystal ball is for scouting lairs only!. Don’t bother arguing.
Just don’t. Scouting other tiles, especially ones that are very far from the village don’t help it in anyway, just don’t bother.
Attacking alone
“Solo Attacking – it’s great that you went out by yourself and killed a measly three dwarves, but when you burned through a dust, two bandages, and three healing teas you are crippling the village, not helping.”- Ceasnic
Goes without saying, bring friends….or alts…
Add in your own here.
This isn’t much but you should really let me know anything else you think needs to be added…
I’m just a grumpy Alpha player after all, and nothing is completed alone!
