Try to flank your opponents, as those areas usually are not defended as well. When launching an attack, place your troops to the extreme left or right side of the battlefield to avoid the defensive troops. Allow your own defenses to take care of the enemy forces that launch forward through the middle. Once killed, your troops will slowly regenerate health and can be redeployed. When fighting against an easy to defeat base, redeploy the troops as they are healed in the areas where they are most needed. When fighting a more difficult base, wait to get a large number of troops before redeploying them. This will mean that the opposing troops may get closer to your base while you wait, however launching a full health attack can cause more damage. The goal is to remove a turn from your opponents allowing you to take down some buildings. Repeat this until the largest threats of your opponent's base are removed, then deploy troops as soon as they are healed. Concentrate on eliminating the troop bunkers first because they will produce extra defenses. Afterwards, attack the enemy's defensive turrets and other troops. Begin attacking other players as soon as possible to gather resources. Search until you find a bases that have few defenses and lots of resources. Intentionally lose some battles as needed to keep your rating low, which allows easy to defeat players to remain within your searches.
