We have made a decision that for Columbia we will not spend gold.
Kind of an experiment to see how a top 50-100 faction will do but also to save burnout from this game. Wars are too close, prizes are poorer, we all have families and lives.
So if you are paired with us, bear our performance in mind.
NO problem the celestial soldiers will go easy on you not that we have ever pounded anyone hard....muchQuote:

Love the decision. All top 25 and over factions should consider this. Prizes for Colombia are much worse than previous. You are paying far more for less.
Love it. You will get a taste of the riots in the top 4000 area. It's weird down here, one person factions ending everyone.
Just say no and save money!
Given our strength I think we'll still get paired with higher factions but it will be a fun time for the best fun time faction out there.Quote:

Ill be checking in on this to see how much of a difference it makes.
Omg the troll is back. If we wanted top 50 I wouldn't have posted this you idiot!
The troll(s) are back! We thought they were a gonner but the Bijoqflan is backQuote:

I dunno, but you're from scotland, right? Who cares. We'll use our leftover money to buy a lager or something.
this is going to rock. =]
Sent Bravehearts of Scotland a request.
Lets see if we can get some other Top 25 / Top 50 teams on board :)
Let's do a back of the envelope calculation!Quote:

# Scouts: 1
Scout Win = 150 points
Win Rate = 75%
# Wall Attackers: 7
# Attackers: 15
Win = 225 points
Win Rate = 90%
Power Attacker Points: 70 x 75% x 150 = 7,875
Scout Points: 70 x 4 x 75% x 150 = 31,500
Attacks: 70 x ((15 x 6) + (9 x 2)) x 90% x 225 = 1,530,900
Total WD Points: 1,570,275
WD points per member: 32,714
This is a very rough approximation (and doesn't include defensive wins) but it looks like you can be in contention for top 250 without gold.
Top 250 in Ireland was 1,660,727 WD points and I'm guessing Colombia will be around 1.6 to 1.75 million.

Actually I agree with everyone, for a change. Bravehearts will be very lucky to get in the top 250 although possible with extremely active participation. But the rewards at present to not stand up to the thousands a faction spends during a campaign. Bravehearts should spend their money on themselves for this campaign to get stronger. Others should note take up the cause and perhaps Gree could take notice and reward those factions willing to spend; lets say units of the 10 - 30k range for top 100. Fighting over a unit of say an extra 1500 plus 5% extra attack seems futile, fighting over a unit of 30k and 20% extra attack....now that is worth the fight (cash). Good luck to both McGurt and Bravehearts!

Then after a year, we would all regret playing the WD events with golds.

So no gold for REG either? Good man. Im sure is either of us is a few points off a tier prize then a refill might happen but the inetention is NO GOLD. Possibly long term.Quote:

Imagine what all the factions above us spend then!! Imagine if a few others follow?
Spending gold isn't a requirement in BoS, probably half the faction do. Fun, friendhsip and family are what we stand for, ask any members. Nobody has forced us to spend but because we can afford it we do, but all that will stop for Columbia.
This is as much of BoS having a rest, enjoying a war where we have in faction prizes (sensible and stupid) and making a point to Gree that they are burning players out. In the long run they will lose out.
There are too many glitches, to many hackers, extortionate prices and people are no longer enjoying this game which will ultimately mean they leave.
A break from staying up and tapping a button will be a welcome change - to our families and our pockets.

Bravehearts - I don't know how many health regens you all have collected individually and as a faction, but I believe I can speak for REG when I say, BRING IT ON. Consider this the first FREE friendly challenge for BEST FREE FACTION.
And yes, if someone is close to making one of the brackets, gold will obviously come into play and DQ someone from this friendly challenge, but for the best if you get the next best trinket for just a couple gold!
If anyone is handy, maybe they can do better, but here's my feeble attempt @ our bragging rights badges. I'm pretty sure that it boosts your stats by something around 20-200%. It works kinda like the Reinforced Bear. It works "in the background" or it's "invisible?" yeah - just works the same. =]

This is brilliant.
It deserves its own thread, perhaps a poll, and a declaration from factions who wnat to be part of this momentous challenge.
Let players choose.
Some will want to spend to get played while trying to play, WD, cool..
But, others will want to be part of another MW first, FREE 4 ALL FACTION CHALLENGE.

Sounds like a great idea.. I may be able to convince the Top 50 faction I'm in.
Loving the idea tanner, we have just created the all free challenge
