So I've been playing this for a couple months now and it's a guilty pleasure of mine.
The game is a "strategy" game where you build up your own fortress, raid other players for their resources, and you join a clan where you go to war with other clans and the winners get rewards.
The basic premise of the game is to build up your defenses and designing your fortress to withstand raids so that you can build up your resources.
Those resources will be used to reinvest into more powerful defense upgrades or more powerful soldiers to go and attack other players.
Each soldier has different characteristics and pros and cons so you have to adjust your strategy accordingly.
I am proposing we start an RVF Clan as a fun way to interact with each other but also because we would surely rule!
I am currently a level 50 geek and its pretty fun now that I have dragons.
This thread will be to coordinate attacks, fortress design, etc (if there is enough interest of course)
Since most of the things require timed tasks like 30 mins to construct something, I will often use it to time doing some chore in the real world.
Who's in?

I tried it some time ago but it took so much battery that I choose to play Tinder instead.

It's like this; if you guys aren't interested in playing a game and having fun you don't need to tell everybody how cool you are for not playing.

I've been a pretty passive player (level 56), but I've never really been part of a clan. I'd be down to join one.

I never got into it because it looked like one of those pay-to-win, click-and-wait games that have taken over the mobile gaming market. My best friends play it all the time, though. Maybe I'll check it out.
Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn't an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag. We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language. And we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people.

Back in the day I used to play Command & Conquer and had more fun playing with 5 or 6 roommates on LAN in college than I would if I went out to the bar.
Does that game still exist?

Yo, I've been playing CoC for over a year hah. It's the only game I play...but damn its addicting. I'm in an established clan with some of my friends, and some of them are pretty "high level". PM me if you're interested and I'll give you guys the Clan name/info
You don't get there till you get there

No thanks. I'll stick to DotA 2 and micro stakes no limit Texas Holdem.

People on this thread think they too alpha to play apps.
Angry birds is a life saver for when you are forced to attend those sexual assault meetings.
Nope.

I've just started playing the game, spent like 3 hours already and I still have like 4 assignments and a bunch of laundry to be done.
Thanks Fisto.

Fuck it, I'm in.
I also haven't repaired the castle yet and am just getting my resource supplies up so I can buy the cool military shit. If there is a "best" general strategy that we should be following, then let us know.
"Despite their numbers, their pussyness means I was barely hurt. 2 black eyes and a cut nose, no big deal. I could sense the fear in them so as they were walking I chased them down and told them to "go home". They all left like little girls." - Revelations 21:4

Just a hint for everyone just starting. DO NOT USE THE GEMS
Until you get the 500 that you'll need for a 3rd builder
starting out, that 3rd builder is critical.
Ignore the bitch in the beginning saying not to be stingy with the gems
she just wants you to buy more of them
