Too long; didn’t read

There are quite a few topics to cover even in a summary guide like this, and some are important whereas others are not that important, so I’ll just quickly run through the most important things very briefly here.

1. Always keep your lab and your builders busy, unless you’re keeping one available to turn excess loot into wall upgrades. This game will take literally years to get through.
2. When attacking, deploy high hitpoint units in front of high damage units. Save “medium” ones for the middle of the fight.
3. Be prepared to fight super high level enemy clan castle defenders. Lure to a corner, and then a ring of archers with wizards on the outside works well.
4. Clear some side buildings first with small squads so your main army walks straight into the main enemy base. This is called “funneling.”
5. Don’t rush your town hall unless you know what you are doing.
6. DO NOT MISS YOUR CLAN WAR ATTACKS!
7. DO NOT DONATE THE WRONG UNITS. IF THEY SAY “HIGH LEVEL” IT MEANS YOU SHOULD NOT DONATE UNTIL YOU ARE HIGH LEVEL!
8. Take part in Clan Games and, if possible, Clan War…
