24 hour campaign — Whew! Was caught on the wrong side when E/U spiked up NY morning yesterday, I had 4 troops in (out of 50+). This is my third tsunami (demo), I thought I knew the drill - my drill is to cut attack troops immediately, then ...

Technical Analysis Fallacy

75% monster hit rate — Sure, with a 75% monster hit rate we do not need the added stress of "progression" (I assume progression refers to skew in attack and rescue). The chicken and egg question is how to achieve a 75% monster hit rate ...
