I think a lightning spell will draw out cc troops? It has been a long time since i used lightning so someone confirm?

Lightning strike does not lure them out fo the CC.

Also - I don't think the lighning strike does anything to a dragon - only ground troops - not sure though?

What if you were able to destroy the CC, using a lightning strike, with the dragon still in it?

 

[The Duff Man]

Used to be able to do that, they bumped up cc HPs because of it. Now it is too strong to lightning kill

My level 4 or 5 lightning strike does 420 in damage.

Clan Castles are the 2nd most powerful defensive building (after TH).

Edit to add - my CC has 3000 hit points - 5 lightning strikes would not take i tout.

You can lure the CC with hogs if the CC radius is inside their walls. I recommend using multiple hogs at the same time otherwise 1 hog dies before you pull all the units out of the CC. The sacrifice is worth it as CC troops are the biggest threat to a hog raid.

 

[GregR]

If a giant can get inside the radius somewhere I would do that first, being careful you get them all before giant dies. i failed to get last 2 units out last war without realizing... 2 wizards who ruined my attack.

If giants won't make it, yes, have to use hogs. Also even when using a giant, I go in thinking if I don't get them all, I will use a hog. just have to notice I didn't get them all, doh.

On that note I think I will scout CC from now on to check number of spots in it.

I recently upgraded to TH7 and as I pointed out a couple of days ago, getting the dragon upgrade to Level II is really difficult as it requires 2M elixir which is tough to accumulate unless you are online 100% of the time (once my elixir was above 1M, I kept getting raided). If your storage isn't capable of 2M yet, I'd suggest updating that soon.

This weekend I went sub200 starting with 600k elixer to fund my lvl 2 dragon upgrade. I was less than 50k away from getting to 2mil when the game stopped me from attacking because I was online for too long. When I got back online I lost 200k in a raid.

Does anyone know what the time limit is for being logged in? And how long they keep you from attacking during their mandatory "break"?

I thought it was 8 hours, but ive noticied getting that message at 6 hours lately. and I believe the period is 5 -15 minutes. not sure exactly.. ive been trying to find this out myself

One of my 7th period students just showed me his village. he has a th10 but level 3-4 everything else. he said his friend hacked something for him to get him the th and BK and AQ

I sometimes stay logged in for a few hours at a time for sub200 while I watch sports. I really hope I don't play 6 straight hours, but I keep my phone charged and tap the screen every few minutes.

per supercell its 8 hours, so I don't know if that's a rough number or what

ive heard of people that have jail broken phones using an app that will keep them constantly logged in so they cant be attacked. the same app is also capable of setting a minimum threshold of gold or elixir that will theoretically keep searching possible bases for you to attack until it finds one with the value you set.

 

[SoCalBroncoFan]

Alright guys, I am in for the next clan war in FBG2. Are we going to put Valkyries in for defense? If so, I can start making them and wizards to stock clan castles.

 

[beer 302]

Valks & filled in with wizards are the typical set up correct. Thanks man, you're timing is impeccable with Fudd going on the DL for a bit

LOL....ok...

 

[PatsWillWin]

I'm stuck with a full bank of gold and nothing to spend it on. I have 4 days left on my last AA upgrade, and 5 left on my TH8 upgrade. The only other things I have to spend on are collectors, which don't cost enough gold to make a dent, and will take up three days.

Poor planning!

And the crappy thing is I only have like 500k elixir so I feel like I still need to farm to build that up.

 

[MindCrime]

Does FBG2 still need help for war? If so, I'm in. (Smliteguy)

Looks like there is room for one, talk is to get to 50 and there is 49 currently. hop on over.

Mission accomplished - sacrificial hog drew out the CC troops. They were then lured into the corner for slaughter.

Thanks

Clayton, bdawk is onboard. Witz talked to him last night in clan chat. He understands the strategy & ready to WAR!

 

[SoCalBroncoFan]

Ok, I have Valkyries and wizards ready....should I: donate to everybody?

 

[VA703]

no valk for me, just wizzies por favor.. my note should say that I think

thank you sir

 

[SoCalBroncoFan]

Sorry guys, hope I didn't overstep, but I filled all the clan castles with 1 valk, as many level 5 wizards as would fit and I filled in any open spaces with level 5 archers.

 

[SoCalBroncoFan]

Going back to bed now....have to get up in an hour...

 

[EYLive]

Thank you!

 

[culdeus]

Maybe this one will be a challenge. 24 TH8 or higher bases.

You're doing God's work here, good stuff

 

[VA703]

this will be a tough one, these guys have 10 wins

 

[culdeus]

this is gonna be won/lost at the low th8 level.

We need to draft off who we want to take here.

Low to high

25 - Strong mortars and weak everything else. Great dragon rush target with heals

24 - Spread out spring trappy base. could be a 3pop AA and dragons

23 - using my base design more or less. my base needs high level wiz to be effective, he doesn't have those. hog rush imo.

22 - this one could be pretty easy actually. lure cc up then release a stream of hogs right there on that corner. when they kill the two AA minions and arch should be able to wrap it up.

21 - Odd base design. if cc stays lurable then not too bad. can go in from the cc corner after they are dead with hogs then dragons

20 - moron is using walls to guard his camps, but his cc is close to edge of base so it's gonna take some time to get them across the map.

will look at more later

 

[Ignoramus]

Maybe this one will be a challenge. 24 TH8 or higher bases.

That tells me they have likely upgraded to TH8 too quickly.

From the last two wars where I tried to 3 star weak TH8 bases, I assure you even a weak TH8 base is hard to 3 star with TH7 level troops.

 

[EYLive]

I plan on using 10 lvl 1 dragons, 3 lightening spells, and 4 hogs to take out my counterparts (#28-#33)

 

[VA703]

im goin 9 dragons and high wizzies for my counter

 

[bshell27]

I think this is correct. There are a lot of underdeveloped bases/walls in the mid 20's.

 

[thecatch]

The fact that I'm #13 in our clan as only a TH7 gives me pause

 

[culdeus]

For purposes of clan war attack TH7 is not that much down from a TH8. At least, not at first.

You can still make a crap ton of L2 Dragons.

I think this war is going to take a pretty large investment.

 

[Pigskin Fanatic]

My TH7 upgrade just finished. I only have 2 builders and the first one was doing my last upgrade to my camps. Started a tesla with the free worker. Next comes level 1 camp then barrack upgrade to dragon, then dragon upgrade.

Upgrade arch while you wait for barrack to build imo.

TH7 upgrade progression

Builders: Camps upgrade, Barracks upgrade, Splash Damage upgrade, Canons & Tower upgrade, Storage upgrades, Extractor upgrades, Walls

Research: Archer upgrade, Dragon upgrade, other upgrades

This look like a decent plan? I'm gonna be starting my TH7 upgrade in the next day or two as well. It's close to the progression I used for all upgrades so far, but now that the upgrades will take days I want to be sure I'm committing resources in the proper order. TIA!

I was sure I'd be out of this game long before hitting TH6 let alone TH7. Joining the clan made sure that wasn't gonna happen.

I recently upgraded to TH7 and as I pointed out a couple of days ago, getting the dragon upgrade to Level II is really difficult as it requires 2M elixir which is tough to accumulate unless you are online 100% of the time (once my elixir was above 1M, I kept getting raided). If your storage isn't capable of 2M yet, I'd suggest updating that soon.

I prioritized wiz towers and air defense as first upgrades for the purposes of clan wars. Upgrading the levels on archers, then giants then barbs seems to have gotten the most bang for buck.

Thanks for this, you're right, I need to hit the storage upgrade earlier so I can farm the necessary resources while I wait for upgrades. Max at TH6 is just over 2M for gold or lix.

 

[culdeus]

at the earlier TH the storage is the most important to max 1st imo. Because you'll make more in raids (esp. at sub200) that you can spend fast enough otherwise.

 

[EYLive]

Once again, I think this upcoming war comes down to participation. If everyone one of our 50 members is active in prepping for war, we can beat much higher level opponents that have average 65%-70% participation.
