What's a nerd's guide?

First, I'm not an experienced player. Also, I'm not a big spender. You may find some strategies absurd if you're buying packs. The idea about this site is finding methods to grow without going to the shop constantly. But take this in mind, eventually you'll need the shop.

Nerd's guides its pretension is to help you understand the game, the phase you are in, and how to grow in a balanced way. Out there are many instructions about how your city should be, which buildings you must have, and which not. These guides don't go in this direction. Everything will be balanced accordingly with your understanding of the game. You need to be able to make your own decisions, based on self-experience.

The prepare and rush strategies

This game has milestones. Places you want to be, but that are tough to get into. This site will try to separate strategies for when you're preparing for a milestone, and when you're rushing to achieve it. Both strategies are different in timing and expenses. Both have their own pages, so you can clearly know the point you're in.

The milestones

To simplify the concept, milestones will be:

• For buildings: levels multiple of 5 (5, 10, 15, 20...)

• For guardsman: the tiers (I, II, II, IV...)

We prepare for a milestone, then we rush until achieve it. The difference will be clear once you read both strategies.
