Section 2 (Troops and Defences)
Troops and defences are the most important part of the game and each kind of troops has a different use.During the first 3 days of the initial 7 day beginners protection aim to build all buildings to level 5 and on day 4 start building troops.
I prefer to build troops in bunches of 1000 and for defence you need to have layers to protect your archers.The best ratio of warriors to archers is 3 warriors to every 1 archer.Try and aim for a minimum of 210000 warriors 70000 archers and 20000 sword,pike and scouts before the BP runs out.You should also aim to have 2 or 3 cities by this time each city with the same amount of troops in them.
Build your walls up as they are your defence when your attacked by another player.I prefer to use 3000 traps,2500 abatas,100 rolling logs,100 trebuchet and the rest archer towers.
IMPORTANT
Do not build your town hall to level 5 before day 7 unless you are confident you have enough troops to defend your self as this will end your beginners protection
Bellow is every troops in the game and their stats which should show you which troops are best for defence and attack .
