    Would help cut the spreading too, given the few active people at the moment. No opposition.

    Ok, this is what won the last season, and appears to be ready to finish off this one as well. Least a few people are saying the season is already over lol. The strategy itself is good, but we need to be aware of it so every season does not turn out the same way. Anybody have suggestions for stopping it?

    One obvious way is to lower the cap so somebody can not skew the troop members while Fox or somebody else makes sure nobody can stop them. Any other?

    This is small tutorial (note) how to start with Unity 3D.

    Lets say that you all know how to install and create new project so im gonna skip that.

    Ok then you need to create new scene.

    File-New Scene and thats it

    Then you you have to make a terrain

    GameObject-Create Other-Terrain done

    Now you need textures for it

    Terrain-Brush Icon-Edit Texture-Add Texture

    For Light GameObject-Directional Light

    If you wanna shadows click on Directional Light-Shadow Type-and you can choose hard shadows or soft shadows or no shadows at all

    Thats it for now keep in mind that this tutorial isnt finished yet

    I mean this is effectively what won season 4 as well, just far less exaggerated early on because the blockade was at the troop cap. Get on top and stay there long enough and the game is yours.

    Lowering the troop cap would make the spread less potentially excessive, but the most important thing will always be for people to take action. If someone starts getting ahead, you whip them back into line. Otherwise they whip you down and make you powerless.

    Because it is.

    These are the translations of the Russian Q&A with developers from WG, done by the EU server player Silentstalker, on his blog "For the Record", located on wot-news website

    Day 1 over, we won all games, even though we had to play against one of the strongest teams in the game at third round, we beat them 2:0 too
    We're currently in top 12 teams I believe, top 8 will get gold, and we're 1 win away from that.
    And we're going to try getting that win against the team previously mentioned here... "Guys Who Dated Your Sister" xD

    Actually, in that case, you'd inspire a blockade to happen much sooner, and it would be even harder to break through it. The higher the troop count is at the blockade, harder it is to keep it.

    It's not over cause of the attack cap being at 60%, it's over because the amount of teamwork in Ironheads is 0 and in Gold Beasts bellow 0, and because some of the key players (you know who you are, I know who you are too but if I say so, I'm going to get the club that you deserve) in the game rely on using multi accounts instead of focusing on winning fairly - something which we in Stompers just did, again, despite your multies.

    bottom line, you're not going to win by changing the rules, you're going to win by playing like a team, or you're going to lose every time, regardless of the rules, all the way till you bring attack cap to 99.99%.

    Thought it would be harder earlier on since nobody would have a chance to build to pull off the blockade.

    Not blaming rules at all or anything for that matter:). It just takes the right mix of people to join and stick with it to win. Not going to get into activity or multiple accounts etc.

    It all depends on having enough players who can work as a team and stay together. The private forums are really great for that as well as PMs. This is also why I wanted two nations. More smaller nations will probably mean less teamwork.

    It's easier earlier on cause of the game mechanics. For example, say I've got 10.000 troops and you've got 10.000 troops, both of us have 100k offense and defense. Now lets say I decide to attack you. So I use 90 turns to get about 200k gold, which allows me to buy 2 100k items, and effectively increase my offense to around 400-500k. Oh look, I suddenly have 5x times stronger offense than you have defense, you're very dead at this point.

    Now lets say we both had 100.000 troops, and 10 million offense and defense, I decide to attack you, use 90 turns and get 2 million of gold, with that, I can buy 8 250k offense items, and they're going to multiply my firepower to 20 millions, but oh look, that's only twice as much as you have. I'm still likely to win if I attack you, but much less, since the difference is now only 2x instead of 5x.

    This is why the earlier you decide to start a blockade, the easier it is to make it work.

    That aside, TEAMWORK, key word, absolutely key word. It's impossible for one person to hold a blockade on its own (ok it's possible if it holds down only 1 or 2 people, but not more) . This is something you in ironheads do not do, I can see there are some attempts like in season 5, but it was executed poorly, while as for gold beasts, I'm willing to bet that there's absolutely no posts on their private forum, and if there are, not a single one has anything to do with teamwork (and no, "help I'm attacked by xxxxx" is not teamwork, it's teamwork when someone actually responds to that, which is something that has not happened in the last year or so, or at least as long as I'm here, I haven't seen a single act of teamwork from their side, that actually involved more than 1 real person.

    And if we had 2 nations, it would increase the chance of teamwork within them, BUT, it would take away few other elements from the game, such as alliances, unpredictability of who's helping who and who is going to attack who. Currently, in the game you have teammates, potential allies and potential foes. If we take the 3rd nation out of the picture, we're left with teammates, and foes, and that could lead to absolute carnage. At this point, with 3 nations, if 2 nations kill each other, the 3rd one will profit the most since it will be at the top, that forces every nation to plan attacks carefully. If you bring that number down to 2, there will be absolutely no reason to wait with attacks "we have slight advantage in troop count, ATTACK NOW AND WE WIN FOR SURE" is what the season will end up like. So yeah, we don't have many active players, and that means we have to keep the number of nations as low as possible, but that means 3 nations, not 2.
