glory points are dummy cheap now.
Personally, I don't mind hitting small invasion castles. Practically free glory, easy food source. If I've still got too many soldiers, I'll send them at a real player and hope they don't get stacked to death lmao. But there's no way to drop below fearless anymore for all but the lowest level 70s, unless you're absolutely dismal.
Anyway I'm tired of consistently coming on to the forums, and seeing your name plastered all over "I hate GGE" type posts. If you really hate it, you'd stop playing. Quit playing, or quit complaining.

No one forces anyone to play the event, if you don't like it, don't play it.
Most players think the castles are a little bit too weak, but almost everyone goes hard in these events.
If you think about it the current numbers are actually fairly well balanced, an event where all the castles are above 5k would result in an event that requires you to purchases troops in order to keep up with the amount of hits you are putting out.
Making the event more pay to win.
I happen to also be ok with how the castles are setup. I have always viewed the BC and FL's as a way to get LTPE points, not to get 100M Glory. Even with the low troops counts you can typically get the 4 points per for between 4000 - 10000 glory. With the addition of the Master Blacksmith (old version) you could get the FL Banners and Flags to get many low levels to 10000+ to get the 6 points each. With the Master Blacksmith (new version) providing unlimited tails, it is impossible to get less than 10000 per small castle. So, FOR ME - I am ok with the amount of smalls, and mediums.
There definitely could be some more BIG castles in the mix. It is fun to see just how big a castle you can take down and how many Glory Points you can get for that one hit!
Back to the MAIN POINT: Grinding through castles looking for the "fun" ones is the problem. With Nomads, the Tent stays the same. There is no hoping for a bigger tent. You set your presets, and either run trains or send 4 out at a time every 10 mins. No anticipation of a possible BIG BOOST!
With the Castles, there is that possibility of a big one out there. Where is it? Is THIS one it? No. Dang! How about THIS one? Nope. ARRRRGH!!!! My Alliance Mate got a BIG 8k castle on his first round! Where is MINE!?!?!?!!? I bet the buyers get more bigger ones.
You see the point? This event and its twin breed frustration.
There is a difference between "Popular" and "well used". Just ask some High School kids.........

Most of this silver is earned back simply from the event rewards.
I use 6 wave hits on all my targets and fill them all with hortsetails, this gets me between 1 and 1.5 million glory for every 10 hits. Every once in a while I get a bigger castle and get some more glory than usual.
I barely ever upgrade my castles with rubies, I mostly use them to buy a quick 12 to 13 thousand deathly horrors so I can keep attacking (only if I didn't save up enough troops).
But generally speaking troops aren't an issue.
For example: The nomad event is here, you buy just enough nomad chests with silver to finish the event, the event rewards will net you more silver than you have spent.
But you now have enough nomad tokens for over 100 thousand troops.
I use these to attack my foreign castles with.
A little bonus tip, the berimond invasion grants the user a really large amount of silver, I use most of this + all of the silver from the glory events to buy 100k horestails for 17k silver.
So, I am indeed a bigger player, but my wallet wouldn't tell you this.
It doesn't show in my wallet, but I am not winning any events with it either.
ps
150 million was pushing it, but 50 million is a breeze and I often do this in 1 day
I hope this "guide" helps some of you out. (just continu this thread if you have questions)
Agree this is possible. 100k per castle with 6 waves full tails can be done. (Presuming you HAVE 6 waves - but that is another issue)
Ok, this is POSSIBLE, but for the casual player, not realistic. To finish the event means getting 500,000 tabs. I am having my best Nomad ever, and am just getting to the 200k mark. Next issue is feeding those 100k troops. Not everyone has that kind of food production, nor the carts to send on long trips to bounce back with enough food to last through the night.
The experience for the Casual Player and my locked closed wallet, is different. Understandably different. And there is no expectation for winning any events.
Quick math tells us, if you get 100k per hit, to get 50M means 500 castles. With 10 per round, that is 50 rounds. At 30 mins to and 20 mins back, it is close to 1 hour per round. Perhaps your alliance is using boost on attacking the FL/BCs and you have upgraded your maps for the return trip, so that gets cut in half. Each round takes 30 mins. That still equates to 25 hours to get there. 15 minutes per round is still 12.5 hours. 7.5 mins per is STILL 6.25 hours.
I don't view that as a "breeze"..........

A: The bestseller, 1000 troops for 825 rubies (10.000/825 = roughly 12k)
Q:Agree this is possible. 100k per castle with 6 waves full tails can be done. (Presuming you HAVE 6 waves - but that is another issue)
A: Players aiming to get 50 million are expected to have 6 waves in my opinion.

A: If you do it like I do and use full chests in every attack you get around 20k tokens for a 25 attack train, this takes 3-4 minutes. 1 hour of trains will net you around 300k like this. (you see where I am going)

A: My rounds take about 30 minutes, I get around 1.5 million glory for every round, making it 3 million an hour.
I tend to get quite a few targets above 3k, those give me about 1 million glory.
I understand that it still takes some time and effort to get 50 million but these scores shouldn't be easy to get.
When I said it was a breeze I should've mentioned it's a breeze compared to half a year ago.
I would never get above 20 million back then, now I average 80 million.
I have well developed account but I don't spend a lot, on average I spend 10-20 euros a month.
I know these types of numbers (glory) are still not easy for most of you, I just figured I would share how I play this game and how I get these numbers.
In the hopes that it helps some of you out, even if it's just 1 person.
(I know these weren't all questions but I was struggling to quote your messages so I used this to make clear which parts were yours)
While 50M isn't a major goal I have, I am a level 70/260 with a 191 HoL. Still at 5 waves max.
Wait, a 25 attack train? You are running 25 attacks at the same time? This again is nothing that I would call a "breeze". I do not find staring at the screen without the slightest margin for error / mis-click to be a fun game. Not to mention the number of RockStars it would take to keep me going. Again, not realistic for a Casual Style player.
Then you agree that 50M isn't a "breeze" to get. 3M per hour? To get 50M = 16 hours 40 minutes of straight gameplay. That is a long day in front of this screen.
I guess we have a different definition what what a "breeze" is. If you seriously put in 17 hours a day on the game, then YES I agree that you deserve the Glory you are getting. But, is that a realistic amount for the "average" player? I do spend alot of time logged in, but not giving the game 100% attention.
I spend on average EXACTLY $0 per any time frame.
Oh, the tips are certainly welcome. It also demonstrates one point I have repeatedly made over the years that I have been playing. This game can be played in many different ways. For you, it seems that hardcore 17 hour days running trains is a dream. For me, it would be a nightmare.
Yes, the forum can be difficult for the newer users...........

It's 17 hours if you don't get any good targets, if you get 2 targets above 3k it cuts away roughly an hour from the total.
The nice thing about glory events is that you can send out some hits, do something else for 30 minutes and then repeat.
You can also spread it out over 4 days making it even easier.
my little tutorial was never aimed at lower level players or really casual players, it was for those who are willing to put in the time and effort to get top 50 in every event but don't know some of the better ways.
As for this comment, I am not certain which I am?
I don't consider myself a "lower level player" at 70/260, nor a "really casual" player, just casual.
At least, getting to 257,897 tabs today to outpace gerry191 didn't FEEL like it was "really casual"..........
LOL! I just checked and I might get top 50 this round if I keep hitting it hard. Too bad I am "really casual" and don't worry about it.....
Sleep well.

Generally speaking I get a 6-9k castle every 150-250 hits.
Sometimes I get one or two more, but that's rare.
I don't like to believe bigger spenders get bigger castles as I don't really see this happening in my alliance.
And yes, I am indeed in a bigger alliance and I don't have to worry as much about being hunted by players as some others might. I understand that the strategy I use may be a little hard for some.
I just wanted to share it so I could help those out who may have the time but not the money.
As I truly feel that the blacksmith changes have made this game really fair.
But, when you consider that my 1 person alliance is in 62nd place:
You have to wonder what the REAL average player is getting for scores.
For the record, German Circle is in first with 9,419,761 with 63 members.......
