My troop to attack/defense does not add up

[Bearcreek]

I have 6000 scouts but my attack is only at four thousand, Why?

[War Priest]

Damn, where do I begin.

What level and ally count are you at?

[JohnnyR]

Click my sig. Scroll down till ya hit "the numbers" section, particularly read about alliance size and units. Read. Done. Heh, quite a common question.

[Bearcreek]

You there?

[Mcdoc]

It is a complex formula that FNG's cannot decipher without the help of the FNG guide.

[stricker]

You there?

hey johnny... put some big flashing lights and billboard signs around it.... the deer is in the headlights!
lol

[Luke7676]

You there?

Read the FNG guide or post your stats please.

[Bearcreek]

I am talking about the blue numbers on my game profile. Not when I attack someone. I do the missions in folder and on is to build you alliance score to...xx numbers

[Mcdoc]

Step 1: go back up to JohnnyR's post
Step 2: look for the green text that says FNG Guide
Step 3: click on the white letters that link you to the FNG guide
Step 4: follow JohhnyR's directions about scrolling down to the section on "the numbers"
Step 5: lightbulb!

For 1 you have way more units then you can actually use.. 1,112 units is what your bringing into battle.. With 278 allies. You bring 4 extra units per ally.

[Bearcreek]

Well dammit why buy a bunch different units? They should fix that.

At lv27 you can only use 135 allies,multiplied x 4 units=540 units

I believe they tell you that when you first start playing about the allies.. But I may be mistaken. But it's very good info to know and remember so you don't waste / use all your cash on units you can't use right now. For future reference start buying units with higher stats and yull see your A and D scores go up a bit unless your capped out with what units your able to buy at the moment. If I confuse you any don't stress out just ask what is confuseing you. I'm not the best with words

I also highly suggest you read through the FNG guide on the forum for really good insight and info.
