Half our clan got Hog swarmed in the last war. Seems any resistance to it was x-bows that weren't hit right away, and giant bombs set in 2's so heals couldn't restore the HP.

Our glorious political masters have, in their wisdom, decided to form an alliance with a rag-tag bunch of freedom fighters right when the Federation has us at a tactical disadvantage. Unsurprisingly, this has resulted in the Feds firing on our vessels...

Have started playing this new form of e-crack, and am currently at TH4 stealing other peoples' gold to pay for my walls. Is there a goon clan for people just starting out who are actively afraid of going to war at this point?

War is not scary at all. No one gives a poo poo if you fail your attack. At the most, people will give you constructive advice on how to attack better. So pick a clan and join it! They mostly are full but one of the newer ones probably has a spot.

I think PEKKA is full or I'd tell you to join with us.

It looks as though the guy who created the clan either left or dissolved it. I edited it out of the OP, but let me know if it's full of goons and continues to be worth joining, and I'll put it back in.

2Poor always purge after the league resets. Next one ends on Monday the 12th, and I'll be booting the following Friday the 16th. Last time we didn't kick anyone, but I expect to get 1-3 spots with the newer stricter rules to stay in.

Yeah there was a mass exodus (or as much of one that could happen to a <10 player clan) from it. I'm currently the leader by default or something, but I get the feeling that it's probably not worth maintaining.

For some reason I'm now a co-leader in UGiev (I'm Neurath), so I went and hit the Start War button. War is peace

Also what's the drama with Blumpkin, I'm not gonna start kicking people and augh, there's too much pressure

Edit: on clan wars, this FAQ (also linked from the OP) is pretty comprehensive: http://forum.supercell.net/showthread.php/232849-Clan-Wars-FAQ

In my experience one of the biggest things in clan wars is the clan castle. Often even low level folks will have their clanholes filled with advanced stuff like level 5/6 wizards and dragons and poo poo. What you want to do is to use cheap troops such as archers to lure out any clan castle stuff and kill them, before sending in your giants/hogs/whatever.

And of course if you're defending you want to put your clan castle in the center and make it as hard to lure troops out as possible. I'm too lazy to have figured out good TH7/TH8 base designs for this, but there was a TH9 a few posts up which looked alright.

At lower TH levels it seems pretty hard to make your CC troops totally unable to be lured, but there are good designs for TH6 and up in the OP.

What is a good metric of when I should move up TH level? I'm nowhere near affording going up from 4 to 5, but I'd like to have some idea of when it is a good idea. All my moneys is going into research, upgrading guns and barracks and storage right now.

Once everything else is upgraded as far as you can get it. Once you hit TH6 future TH upgrades take a long time, so plan to do them just a little bit early so your builders aren't sitting idle. You can lag behind on walls and maybe collectors (though I personally like collectors).

Not right now. We didn't boot anyone this last league reset. Next time around it'll be tougher to stay in. Previously, any sign of activity at all was enough to keep you in. Now you'll need 50 donated OR 100 received troops by the ThursdayFriday after the league reset in order to stay in. I won't be booting based on Clan Wars because :stare: this thread frightened me off of that.

Yeah, the whole point of upgrading the town hall is to get over the upgrade wall. Higher level town halls actually give you maluses, since you have to pay more to hit the 'next' button and take resources less efficiently from town halls that are lower level than you.

Quite the opposite actually. Your crummy archers will take the place of better ones. Enjoy the troops and give back when you hit L3/L4!

Man, I have hoovered up archers like there's no tomorrow, and I only started giving back when I hit L3 a week or so ago. That'll ramp up further in two days when I hit L4, as some people demand 4+ even for farming purposes.

Blumpkin has actually been cool as hell since he joined UGievArchers. Maybe we have that affect on people, or maybe there were extenuating circumstances in the other clan he was in (I have no clue, I only saw the thread drama) but he's been A-OK in my co-leader book.

Blumpkin was always cool, he just rushes his base and the sperglords in WeSpent couldn't handle it. Then he started trolling them by failing attacks on purpose during wars and they kicked him out.

More like he was sperging about the low TH levels sniping or attacking someone that had been 3 starred because the lowest that hadn't was 3 TH levels above.

Making posts and accusing everyone other than him as being the problem doesn't help; he was kicked because there were multiple people who wanted to leave the clan to get away from him. He wasn't "just trolling" he had been raging at people since the very first war and then started doing exactly what he accused others of doing, whilst making call out posts.
The ribbing about his TH rush was just that, jokey and good-natured, it was his constant "I know better" attitude that rubbed people the wrong way for about 3 weeks. If he was "Just trolling" then you stop as soon as you realise you're pissing everyone else off, or you're just an rear end for continuing.
No doubt he will be fine in Ugiev because he has no TH9 or 10 people to "prove wrong".
If he's stopped antagonizing people, then we should move on and let this dumb drama go.

I wouldn't mind if WeSpent got a couple easy match ups. I feel like the clans we've been matched against lately have been pretty stacked on the high end THs.

Maybe someone in other clans can answer, my recommended target is always like the 10th guy, but I'm 2nd on our map. Are you upper guys ever getting suggested to hit their top guys?
