Alliance Clash

It is important that you have as many marching queues unlocked as you can. This is because you will want to occupy as many buildings with as many troops as you can. You may also need to move troops to other buildings to reinforce or attack if necessary.

Having your strongest players occupying buildings closest to your opponent’s closest buildings will ensure it is more difficult for an opponent to try and take those buildings.

You may even want the strongest players to try and force your opponents out of buildings, thus giving you more points.

(It is extremely important to listen to the person in charge calling the shots.)

If alliances come to an agreement ahead of time about building occupation in order to allow all players—on all sides—to get their minimum points, you do not want to be the player who is attacking something you should not be attacking.

When alliances cannot come to an agreement, or the person calling the shots tells you, taking buildings from the other alliances will help to ensure your victory.

Because water trucks usually choose random paths, it can be advantageous to send troops to a building that is on the path of the water truck, but the water truck has not yet reached yet. If you have the building, it will add bonus points to you, but if the other side has the building, be prepared to fight for it.

(You should always scout a location if you have the 3500 food to do it, this way you will know whether an attack against it will be successful. It will also give you an opportunity to rally an attack against a building that is heavily defended.)

It could also be advantageous to attack player sanctuaries during the event in order to have a player pull back to defend. If you find that strong players are occupying single buildings, forcing them to split their troops in an effort to defend weaker players, or buildings can be an effective means of controlling the battle.

Having stronger players with T8s, T9s, and T10s+ eliminating the forces of weaker players, thus removing them to the infirmary can be a way to limit your opponents overall response. Although a player can always choose to heal their forces, doing so comes at a cost if you do not want to wait until the end of a battle to get them all healed for free.

When large rallies are victorious over a large contingent, the losing player will lose a lot of troops and might, and healing them may come at a cost too great for the player to heal, or be even willing to heal, this will also give your alliance an advantage by essentially knocking a player out of the game for the rest of the event.

(If you run out of troops and are unwilling or unable to heal them, you are essentially out of the game for the rest of the event. That is why it is important to not waste marches with fruitless targets.)

If you end up in a Alliance Clash against overwhelming enemy alliances, it is more advantageous to secure the buildings you can secure, than to try and take further buildings and weaken your forces. The strongest players should hold the buildings first, allowing weaker players to join and accumulate their points.
