This week’s Warzone Duel was a hit. We ran 3 platoons. Our reinforcers fell in where they needed to. I don’t know that we need assigned platoons more than moving to Captains/Reinforcers. I think we will pivot this week to go for a “mob” model, which seemed to work for us.

We have reached a major milestone… The entire server is stuck on T9 troops. T10 troops won’t be available until Christmas. That’s because of the VS points bottleneck. With that said, we have:

• 9    27+    bases
• 11   26     bases
• 31   24-25  bases

Our effective fighting strength is on par with other non-whale alliances, as we have resumed some Enemy Buster action- though cautiously. We have 11 more T9 troop bases that should come online by mid-December. This will put us starting Season 1 with 20 T9 troop bases and another 31 T9 troop bases by the end of January. By that time, we should also usher in 4-5 lvl 30 strikers with T10 troops, putting us ~45 T9 troop bases and ~5 T10 troop bases.

Versus

Our opponent was server 1800, Europa Italiana (EURO). We lost 13:0. They are # 3 on their server so…

This week we face our server’s Cedar Covenant. We should be sandbagging since this one’s in the bag.

Summary

Our voter participation is still down ~50% from our height; however, it’s remained steady from last week. We have had an incredible 12.6% increase in Alliance Power and that reflects us beating level 7 Marshall (technically next weeks report) and Level 2 Zombie Siege. We are on the heels of SofB and we are in a great opportunity to pass them this week or next.

Special thanks for Bugs, Dys, and our R4 crew for holding it down through the holidays with no guidance! I appreciate our active R4s and our active alliance members.
