FoEhints: First Day on the Guild Battlegrounds in Forge of Empires

First Day on the Guild Battlegrounds in Forge of Empires

Today I want to demonstrate how I applied my own strategy and how this looks in the game. Hints are useless if they cannot been proofed in the game.

On the German server Noarsil I am a member of the guild Musketeers. Although we are ranked as number 5 we have to start in the gold league as our member list is only filled half. The number of active players is the most important influencer in guild battlegrounds. Of course I want to demonstrate that a small, but very active guild can be successful on the guild battlegrounds.

The guild asked Rote Feder and me to coordinate our activities as we already made first experience on the beta server. We started with sharing some first strategic thoughts with all guild members, and we created 2 new threads. One for appointments an general discussions about guild battlegrounds. The other one always defines our current or next target sector. All members are asked to attack only this one target to concentrate our power on that.

As recommended in my guild battleground strategy video, we first attack the sector towards the center of the map, which is C3; Yeraim in our case. We build a siege camp there and finish it immediately. The effect is that we suffer less from attrition when attacking the next sector towards the center of the map. Speed is important as we want to reach the center before other guilds do that.

The complete script can be found in the first, pinned comment below the video.
