New Players Thread

[highlander]

This isn't my thread nor my place to add input regarding you Beatlesfan, regardless of that I will continue. Is it neccesarry to make 12 posts in a freaking row responding to people? You could have quoted them and responded to them all through the simple use of a few spoilers, that technically is considered spamming and now those worshipped new users of yours have to swim through a full page of your admonishments. Isn't that the very thing you wish to avoid?

Out of order fangfallen , A player can't spam his own thread and for the wording i've sent a report to Admin.

I think this thread should be stickied.

You could simply join games that have upgrades/races disabled or make your own game with upgrades/races disabled.

If you create matches, turn upgrades off. It helps a LOT. When playing against other players, play the custom levels with total regions of 40 or less, so that they can't stock up much more than you. It helps a lot. It's what I did before I got the upgrades. Attrition is also a better mode when you're lower leveled (in MY opinion), because it allows you to kill off their troops instead of (if you fail) simply losing only your own (unless you get super unlucky).

As for when you buy races and upgrades, I'd buy the first upgrade before you get a new race, personally.

The game is luck based and requires some strategy. If you just are patient and is aware of what happens you can survive a long time in a game. Actually, early in the game I mostly played manual. and learned to distribute troops as fast as possible. Look how they play. One way to beat elder players is when you built up a base is to make moves that gives the other players the biggest advantage over them, such as weakening them or cut them. Then you have a chance to meet someone at your own level.

Because of the weakening attrition requires more strategy to be really good at it. If you know how to hurt them the most with minimum use of troops you can basically maintain a base even with inferior supply regions.
