Cryocrab fun

Boom Beach is my focus this weekend. Robbie and I are chasing the level 50 award. This is seriously difficult. But the worst thing is all the resources you loot go to waste because you can’t spend them. Anyway, it is still huge fun !

TH12 War Strategy

Our TH12s should watch the first attack in this video by Beaker’s Lab. The attacker is still using TH11 troops and he 3 stars against another TH12 very easily ! We have a war starting tomorrow so this is very timely.

Builder blockage

This is something new. Everything at TH12 takes so long to upgrade and currently there are so many bonuses I am just playing clan games, there is nothing else I can do given the loot position shown below. I’m sure it will become regular farming at some point…

This is not my blog

I would like some of the 100+ players in our clans to write posts here so we get a variety of views. I moderate, but you can post anything you like as long as it is relevant to our clans. Let me know guys and girls…

The state of our clans

We are all very active which is great so I thought I would give a round up of all our clans.

Clash of Clans We are near 50 players with at least 35 active and a war crew of at least 20. Very positive and still very chatty, many war leaders and new cos, people wanting to improve and 3 TH12s ! Siege machines are going to change everything and I am really looking forward to the weekend war where we will use them for the first time.

Boom Beach Slightly more reserved but always at 50 players with 20 active op attackers including 5 or 6 who can really compete. Our cos are great and we have a good vibe.

Clash Royale 30 players with around 15-20 very active and competing in wars. I do have an issue with this game in that many battles are hopeless and you are forced in to deck from months (years ?) ago because that is all you can afford to upgrade. I am only 30000 XP off level 13 and I only have one deck I can play ! A game that has taken the wrong direction ?

Anyway, all positive and over four years in we survive and reinvent ourselves. Next Brawl Stars if it ever gets released globally…

Ready for the update

There is much excitement about the coming update to TH12. A complete change of META is going to make things very interesting ! I’m hoping that it will drop on 11th June given all the events are ending then, and the update info from Supercell has finished. Anyway as a max TH11 I am fully prepared for it: I dropped hundreds of trophies to get out of the clouds, and I have the resources shown below, a book of building and rune of gold. All set !

A personal post

As leader of our three clans (CoC, BB, CR) I thought I would let you know my view on things. We started by keeping recruitment as friends of friends, but after three years we started to run out of people. With the new clans we allowed anyone in as long as they understood our ethos. I hoped playing more games, and people enjoying their time with us would work, and they would move to our other clans too. Well I couldn’t be happier ! Almost all our recruits are from our other clans, we have many players who are in two or more. It is great ! Thank you all for making our four year journey such fun.

A final note, I am now playing the end game in CoC…. I am trying to get on the local leader board. Still a way to go but this is my first serious push.

Final Royale Tournament

Today I hosted the last of our clan’s run of tournaments and this time it was 100 players. I started of well with around 8 back to back wins and at one point I was leading ! However I took a couple of losses but clawed some trophies back to finish 8th. My best ever result !

Royale Tournaments !

Currently our Royale clan is running daily tournaments with the sequence ending on Monday. It’s all going well and I’ve been hovering around the top 10 every day. However on Monday, our final day of this run, we hope to have a celeb YouTuber playing and we’ll do a bigger tournament than usual to finish with a bang before I have to go back to work. Clash on !
