Game Play
Hi... I'm in an alliance with 5 other friends. We all started at the same time, and each play every night for a bit. We have been doing so for a couple of weeks now, everyone is Knights, most have cities with level 7 or 8 walls, level 9 barracks, etc.
We have been attacked twice. The pattern is to send in enough cheap workers to use up our traps, logs, etc. The first time, the attacker followed the first round with 12000 archers, overwhelming the few hundred towers we had. The second time, tonight, they just attacked us every few minutes - not getting anything, but lowering the cities satisifaction I'm presuming to get our gates to open. Fortunately, the member happened to check before going to bed and teleported to safety - but that was just luck.
Is this the way the game is played? Take out defenses, then take over the city overnight just by repeatedly attacking (with no losses of course)?
If so, it seems silly to spend a month of evenings just to lose it all when your sleeping. I suppose victory goes to the strong and the rest of us are just victims to feed them?
Is this game really playable for free or do you need to spend credits to get enough speedups to max out during the protected week? Alternatively do you need to join an alliance so strong none attack?

you can easily have several thousand towers if not more by the time the protected period is up. You also don't lose your research or medals, everything else can be replaced or rebuilt much quicker after that.

Joining a larger alliance helps deter people from wanting to take you out or use you as a resource farm. It's not guaranteed, but it helps.

another way is just have u and your 5 friends jump him if you have a decent troop count.
