So i wrote something up quickly for the tribe am currently in.
Just wanted to get a gauge on what other peoples opinions are of it?
Don't particularly want to be feeding them things that are useless or wrong. Bear in mind am also a noob XD

No i won't tell you what the best builds are for either, because it's completly circumstantial , by that I mean these things should be tailored to suit your needs for your account and its area. I will give you my own personal builds, but won't demand you use them.
Offense-
Offense troops are obviously used for attacking, the main types of troops to use for this are Axe, Light Cavelry, Mounted Archers, Rams and Catapults.
Scouts can also come under this as its a good idea to have at least some in every village(personally I have around 3-400 at max farm in each). In some cases Heavy cavalry is used (a HC Nuke) however if you are a new or less experienced player I would not advise it and stick to the basic's.
Nukes- Come in all different shapes and forms, and this is where the circumstantial part comes in, theres HC nukes( HC and axe/ram combination) LC nukes (LC and ram combination or just LC) Cat nukes( mostly used for sending cat trains, 4 or more attacks sent in quick succession consisting of anywhere between 50-200 in each and all aimed at different buildings to take down a players village) or just your plain old nuke consisting of axe, lc, ma, ram/cats.
For now we will just go into the 'normal nuke' as it's the most commonly used.
My own personal build for this is-
6200 Axemen
50-100 Scouts
3000 Light cavalry
250-350 Mounted Archers
213 Rams
10-20 Cats
The reason I use this build is mostly for its speed, it can be built alot quicker than other nukes that are more axe heavy for example. And as we should all know that O builds faster than D it gives it a higher hit rate on those players villages that are defensive.
Here it is in action (You may notice this was the D build of a previous Hints and Tips forum post)
As you can see plenty of Light Cavalry left over to start farming again for your rebuild. Now as I said, that is my personal build, you may follow it if it suits you, or you may choose different but please always take into account your surroundings when deciding on the best build for you. If the players around you don't build archers then theres no need for Mounted Archers in your nuke, If they build a shed load of spears for there defense then build it axe heavy and less LC e.t.c
Defense
Defense troops, the clue is in the name! The main types of troops used for this are Spears, Swords, Archers, Scouts, Heavy cavalry....on some worlds with the new paladin weapons Cat's can be favorable in defense as the bonfire weapon really is a bugger to kill with alot of cats in a village. But this world uses old paladin weapons so we won't go into that. They key with defense is to maximize damage of your attacker, defenders have a huge advantage over the attacker as they can stack their troops, whereas the attacker cannot stack his troops to attack(best they could do is time one after the other).
My own personal build for this is
4000 spears
4000 Archers(only on archer worlds, can replace with swords or more HC)
2000 Heavy Cavalry
I use this as it can be moved around very quickly for stacking purposes, compared to one that also includes swords. In later game I can sometimes be found to build a full HC or HC/Spear village, for sniping and fast support purposes.
Here it is in action against(quite worryingly) a common nuke.
A few of those troop builds stacked together(with paladin weapons, HC I would use in this instance) can be devastating to the attacker.
Not to forget we do have some smaller members in the tribe, where Militia(those pitchfork dudes) can come in handy, use them!
So already stated, these builds are my own personal ones that I use, play around with the troop simulator. Get a gauge on your opponent, use things like reports of them attacking, defending against a tribe member or friend to your advantage and build what's best to kill what he/she has!
Also make use of your paladin and his weapons, they can make a difference! I love having the LC or Axe weapon for my nukes! And for Defense I like to have the HC or Spear weapon!
