OMG thank you Nexon.
Wow! My driver was just parking the Bentley at the little private airfield I use in the Hamptons... while I was waiting for my pilot to bring over the Sikorsky, to pop into Manhattan for lunch with my financial adviser... when I read about your 'Combat Rebalance Introduction Design Spotlight'.
I understand that Brad and his team are 'very excited' to be 'strengthening defenses and defenders from the Classical to the Cold War Age so that 5-star victories always require strong army compositions, highly skilled troop deployments, and the latest advancements in army upgrades and research'.
You guys really are Santa. I confess, it was only yesterday, that I was telling my butler how easy it was to 5* other level 260 Cold War bases. It looks like one will have to pay for the latest troop tactics for every single attack to be made in the future.
And playing your game today...
...I observe that your 'special summer sale' offers a superb opportunity to spend upto $38.99, per tier, to buy some kind of pixelated chest...
...while your 'speed up fast' sale offers three additional opportunities to spend a further $38.99, per tier, to buy little green clocks that will make things happen faster...
...there's a 'don't miss this' sale offering three tiers to spend from 450 to 1,550 crowns to buy little eagle warriors...
...an 'event progress pack' for only $14.99 giving me some kind of 'elephant archers'
...and an announcement of some kind of 'crown ship' for less than the cost of two coffees...
...or I could spend 1,000 crowns to buy five, yes five, Sepoy armies...
...and 'for this week only' you are generously permitting me to trade for 'artefacts and museum currency' with Marco Polo. For seven of eight of Marco's sales, one may trade from 99 to 999 crowns to buy various other pixelated chests... Or for one of eight of Marco's sales, one could even exchange 200 rubies for 100 mysterious fragments. My level 6 museum only makes 50 of those fragments every hour, so for only 200 rubies, you're saving me a whole two hours of my actual life...
I just wanted to say thank you Nexon. I had begun to worry that I would never be able to reduce my Trust Fund quickly enough. But, as always, you seem to have cleverly read my mind. So many new opportunities to spend my money. Please accept my eternal gratitude.
As ever, your team has thought of everything...
PS. My butler recommends that I try something newfangled called Battlefield... apparently it's genuinely free to play... but, heck, what does he know...!!
