Hi all, First time posting so be gentle. :lol:
I've been playing since w21.net, so not that long. And during my time I sort have developed my own methods for pre strikes.
I am now trying to teach new players about what I have learnt and I basically want to know what have I left out?
There are certain things players need to consider before any attack is made, the most important is planning...
1)ALWAYS SCOUT FIRST - You need full scout report so you can run sims so you can make a proper evaluation before a strike.
2)ODA and ODD ratings need to be checked to see if player has attacked or been attacked recently this will indicate losses of troops, also check player activity.[/i]
ODA is basically your attack ratings, OD is defece ratings. Every players has them. It shows who's being attack alot or who is more agressive. Sorts the wolfs from the lambs basically
To check go to rankings - Opponents defeted. YOu have As attacker - ODA Or as defender - OD
I also check http://uk.twclaimer.com for player ratings and activity
This one is more up to date I reckon.
3) Check targets profile - A lot of new players are here to make friends but what they don't realize is they are putting themselves on the dinner plate by openly advertising where they are from. Once you know where they are from you can sort of guess when they are on line and when they are not.
4) Random mails - Post random mails at different times, just to say hello. then watch what time they are opened. This too a a key to telling you when they are active.
5) Check other severs - Alot of players coming over form net are still using the same handles, so check net severs if you play there for activity also.
This also will help guesstimate what kind of player they are.

6) Check for support - How close support is to them from there tribe mates or P.A's. This will give you a window to attack with in if your fast enough. Remember start the time from when you send your first scout.
Use http://www.twconquer.org/ to work out exact timings.
Paste target as attacker and supporting village as defender.
Run spears and then hc on there own. Most players in the begining stages wont have HC though.
Be interesting to see what players think.
