To succeed you need more, not less

[Ravenlord]

From the title you might think this thread is related to workers, or defences, or resources - but you'd be wrong. I'm actually talking about accounts.

You heard me. I saw a post from someone who stopped his first account and concentrated on his 2nd - to learn from his mistakes - and kudos to him for that. But that 1st account is already ahead - so why not keep going with that? And if you want to try a new nation why not just make a new account? It won't cost any crowns.

If you're a loner - and I'm sure there's another 1 or 2 out there - you can even start your own alliance and donate to yourself. Imagine how impressed you'd be with your self when you donate a global howitzer to your medival you??!

Sure it's more fun to be in an established alliance (I'm kinda kidding about joining your own alliance ) but don't just dismiss the idea of having a 2nd or 3rd account. Trust me, you get a 2nd, or 3rd, chance to play the game right, and better.
And, you create a larger player base for all of us.
AND, you don't have to spend anything to do it. Chances are you've already donated to the Nexon Benevolence Fund - this time you'll be smarter.

Anyway, just my two cents - but l am speaking from experience.

I have considered this many times. Any idea if this will run on an iPhone 4? I haven't any clue as to the system requirements for the game. As long as I've got wifi or a hotspot I can utilize my old phone.

Ravenlord ... curious did you buy starter pack one and two for all five versions of you?

 

[Eddie F1]

I started a 2nd account, no starter pack - you don't need it, there isn't the same desire to race ahead. Up to Gunpowder. I picked Germans, who have turned out to be a bit useless, but have accumulated 1000 crowns in-game, so will wait for a Revolution sale and switch to Brits, unless shooters get nerfed.

Originally started it to try Moonies example, but it's a grind getting medals in bronze age, then Nexon clamped down on the fun.

Then I got locked out of main account, so upgraded Bronze to Iron Age so I could join my alliance to explain my absence. And yes, I can donate a Howitzer or S35 to myself - and bombards back, if no other ally is online to fill my TC.

Then I just tried to max each Age and play war, but Iron, Classical, Medieval don't have the firepower, Gunpowder with bombards is OK. No intention of upgrading to EA, just max out gunpowder.

No hurry, no stress, set all 10 workers busy, come back in 2 days, raid some abandoned EA bases (there are 1000's), rinse and repeat.

Pretty sure one of my alliance members is using iPhone4

 

[Ravenlord]

As Eddie said below, there's no need but l purchased pack 1 for all and pack2 on two of them - these two are now my globals. But the others never have an issue with ''not enough workers'' .....

Technically l only play 4 as one was corrupted for good. My youngest is gunpowder and I'm enjoying it so much more this time round - just taking my time, just raiding, upgrading at my leisure (plan to update walls, farms, caravans too). I dont have any goals - my globals got that out of my system - now I'm just ''playing''.

 

[Guinevere]

Having fun with my baby base which seems to take a lot more chances in battle and wins more often than not. The base had more practical beginnings as my main one was 'locked out' for twelve days following an upgrade. I couldnt leave my alliance in the lurch so baby leader was born

 

[Vixen]

My 2nd account seriously neglected ...

 

[Brand Marrow]

I had to put my mini into deep freeze. First off, he's a time suck, unlike my global base where I can play a few hours here and there, then put it aside for days or even weeks while upgrading, my medieval account is a beast! always something to upgrade, never any leisurely breaks. Secondly, he's a bit insane and has all sorts of malevolent ideas about destroying the forum and stealing what's mine. So if you run into a medieval Brand Marrow - beware, who knows what you might be getting yourself into...

 

[Whoknows]

I find this whole thread deeply offensive. Who gets to decide whether someone is a primary or secondary account! Just cause an account was created at a later date somehow makes it less worthy of our attention and love!!!! Its pure discrimination and I am not surprised that the evil, long-tongued cocktail wiener eating glam rocker Ravenlord would enslave a whole crew of ''secondary'' accounts just to increase his own power! Vive l'revolution!!!

 

[Vixen]

Whoknows ... serious case of 2nd child syndrome!!!

 

[Danix den Andre]

All my four accounts are highly active, i am an addict. Top highlights of the day: getting ridiculous loot from a lvl161 ia with my lvl 97 german
and scoring 24 on offense and about 40 on defense with the lvl182 global, but it was a crash included, looked like a reasonable attack that ended abruptly for no reason

 

[Whoknows]

Nope. I am not the second child Vixen ... I am the 1,203,948th child of my proud parents!

They are quite reproductive! And I am, of course, their favorite.

It is hard to keep track of all my siblings though, especially when ocean currents are strong or a passing filter feeder kills 10 or 20 thousand of them.. I don't mind, more food for me!.. but it wasn't my fault, I swear it.. .they just asked which way to the beach and I pointed....

hmmm... now back to planning the downfall of all you wretched forum goers! I think I may have found the perfect vessel by which I can invade the servers.... an account lacking in any moral compass, one that can be easily corrupted and has an overblown sense of its own intelligence... yes, one account that has been posting frequently seems to fit the bill rather nicely....(and I am not talking about you Mr. Ravenpantaloons)

If only it wasn't so smelly inside I would take it over right away, but I will need to clean up some of the garbage that it considers to be its brain and willpower before I can comfortably take control....

I've got a second account. But honestly the game is pretty demanding when your builders are free. Makes me wish it was less of a chore to flip between accounts.

 

[Ravenlord]

Looking forward to giving him ''what for'' .....

 

[Ravenlord]

I can recommend the Japanese. They're fearless and the buildings look the best!

 

[Ravenlord]

Shush you or you'll be crushed under the bootheels of one of my troops.
Annoying insect.

Think of your games as kids. If your kid comes to you for a cuddle, you give him/her a cuddle and they go on their merry way. Your games are the same - just pop in, raid for 15-20mins, upgrade a thing or two then leave. Everyone's happy!

Don't take too long though - they grade up so fast these days ..... <wipes a tear from his eye...>

 

[Whoknows]

O, if it isn't Ravenwiener.... don't worry o puny rocker, Ive got bigger fish to fry ;0 Once I took full control of my target moron, I was able to get him to make an alliance that will suck all the fun out of this wretched game!! Bua ha ha ha ha ha !!!! Ha!



Ha!





bua!

 

[Brand Marrow]

be careful where you give him ''what for'' @Ravenlord.. he's got spiky orifices
