Stronghold Completed

Congratulations!

Well done DRPSD! We now have all zones open and have maximized our building structures. Our clan has been actively working on resource accumulation and with the surplus and the awesome recruitment we have been able to open all zones and build up our stronghold.

Next Steps

With a completed stronghold we are able to pull in any reserves and bonuses when need be, but first we want to do some leveling. If DRPSD can maintain a steady resource accumulation we will begin a regular scheduled Free XP Bonus.

Right now the Military School offers only the level II bonus of +8% XP, however with the level III Command Center we can already increase this to +12% which is our next improvement target. We will take advantage of this and activate our bonus on Saturday nights. If tonight (9-10-16) we earn enough to level the school and produce an improvement it will be activate, but that is a fair amount of resources to come in. 

More likely, we can expect started next Saturday the +12% XP followed by a +16% if we can level the command center to level IV and the School by the following weekend.

Further Out

We plan to continue the bonuses and double up, in that we not only will have the Free XP but also the Credit bonus. Assuming the resources keep coming in we will be able to provide these bonuses as well as upgrade our buildings. Once we have our buildings (all) at higher levels we will build a pool of resources and eventually activate a Defense Period.

A defense period is similar to a tournament, but is clan resource driven. We open a window where our Stronghold is allowed to be attacked, also allowing us to attach other clans. Doing this will expose us to plunders, but allow us to gain resources by attacking other clans. 

Not long after we start strongholds we should be able to plan an actual Clan Wars map attack. This will require us to use influence, but if successful will begin the gold income.

In the meantime keep DERPing and grinding your tanks. We will need you all at your best when Clan Wars begins.
