90% of attacks against me are sniper attacks

note, I'm a semi-max GP age base

But This is why I feel the game is somewhat broken. Most would rather bring partial sniping troops and get what they can then actually try to brew a real army and attack an entire base.. I too bring a sniper army because I can get more loot reliably against EA bases and GP bases than I could if I tried to just beat up on Medieval ages. That is because upgrades cost a lot and unfortunately the loot out thee is too weak from lower aged players and Equal age or above aged players you are clearly outmatched and must use expensive troops, tactics blessings and mercenaries, which is unsustainable at a rate necessary to progress at a steady pace
.
Occasionally I bring supply carts and bombard army with mercenaries and blessings and this works well against GP and EA bases that are loaded and closer to max. I can only do this when I know I'm done looting for a few hours and can take a peace treaty and have acquired enough trade goods from my previous snipe session. but I can not continually bring mercenaries I can not constantly lay down the blessings nor can I maintain a constant supply of tactics to do that more than 2x's before I'm depleted and have to go back and just snipe raid... Now I do like the snipe raid option but that gets old and isn't nearly as satisfying as being able to bring a real army and 4 star / 5 star bases

Now I admit I attract these attacks more so because I leave my TC out as well as a few storage's depending on what I'm low on or saving for. , but the meat of my gold and trade goods are usually deep inside my base and rarely does anyone try to get to that. Which works for me as a defensive strategy, but unsatisfying for an offensive strategy

I would rather see fully army attacks be a more viable strategy than it is as the game stand right now.

I do the same. I leave my TC outside the walls so I get easy peace treaty from people just want quick medals. I now don't bring a full army to battle, defense got major buffs and AI got dumber and totally nerfed. Tactics take too long to build and mercenaries cost too much goods that I rather use the goods for blessings. I now only raid for resources and hoping to get at least 50% to get a victory. More time and cost effective than waiting to build ballista and healing cart.

I use a 44 samurai technique. I deploy about 30 of them and rally them to theTC even behind lvl 10 walls. I have about 70% success rate in getting the TC star, but this requires certain type of base layouts. Then I have 6 shooters which I only use to 1 at time to attract enemy troops to the other side of the map. Then with my 14 remaining samurai and 15 raiders I deploy them around for resources.

Ive been getting TC sniped alot. idk why anyone really wants to go high in medals since 80% are hacked bases that'll most likely rip your own to shreds. but i always see like 26 footman attack my base and have the rally on the TC.
