First message about ... TROOP DONATIONS.

Hi, Comrade Commanders,

Seven months after I started playing the Disney's Star Wars Commander (SWC) online game, I am even more fascinated with it then I was during the first playing hours: this game has everything to fully please "strategy games" fans.

But I didn't decide to start this blog to advertise the immense qualities of the game.

In fact, right or wrong, the SWC has such a complex structure that players would need to invest hundreds of reading/watching hours in tutorials to be sure of escaping dramatic errors, much less become capable of optimizing their game options.
I must confess that it took me several weeks to really start understanding the "logic" of SWC basic algorithms, and I have red, only too often, other player's confessions stating that they had to close previous game accounts, in order to bypass ancient dramatic errors (learned from experience), in a simple option of the "let's restart this thing" kind.
If they took that option, considering that they already new everything about the game, my advice would be ... think (at least) twice!

All things considered, let's be practical. Let me start with one of the most simple concepts of this game (a real life lesson) and, as days (and comments) go by, we'll adress those that will arouse either from discussions, or my own choice.

SWC IS A SQUAD GAME

If you play it alone, your chances of becoming one of the strongest players are close to zero!

The first determinent item that a good Squad can bring into your game is ... troop donations. My own belief in this question is so strong that not only the upgrading of the Squad Center (SC) is my first priority, but my record stats prove (circa 7,000 troops donated and 2,000 received) that "I put my money where I put my words".

Non-donators are the worst possible kind of player, both for the fact and for their ridiculous excuses.

As well as in real life, individual success in SWC is related to some kind of team performance and, in my own experience, I would never have achieved what I already did without the help of so many (some of which I don't even recall their "names") who allowed me to:
1) win some hard fought defenses;
2) win some hard fought attacks;
3) collect more then 200 Reputation Points (most of wich were invested); and, above all,
4) collect around 200 crates, in my dayly planet objectives.

If you add to these advantages all those that came, indirectly, from the exact same benefits of all my present Squad Comrades, whose strengh is one serious plus to my game, in case of Squad War and more, you should start to realize how determinent donations/requests are in SWC.

In the most simple words, no player should log-off without is SC full of the best possible defensive troops!
As well as no player should "find a match" (I'll come back to this fundamental word "match" in a future post) without his SC full of the best possible troops coherent with his attack strategy!

Do I allways use my SC troops in my attacks?
No, absolutely not!
But I allways have them at hand, to use (respect your opponents) when the defenses I face prove to be too strong for my basic attack strategy and troops. And the troops I have been donated by my Squad Comrades have been essential in many of my victories.

This is it, Comrades: if I want to fullfill my promise of "keeping it simple", I'd better stop writting for today, and wellcome your comentaries as debate contributions.

Adition # 1 (2018.01.05)
 As I think that our Squad has to grow one step higher, I suggest you all start making more specific troop requests.
For example, I suggest you request:
1) "turret attacking", when you are on one attack streak; or
2) "anti infantry", if you are going to log out and prefer defensive reinforcements: or, as I usually do
3) "Speeder Bikes", if you prefer one "all round" kind of troops, that will do well in both ofensive and defensive battles.
I urge all Comrades to RESPECT specific requests and donate each other what you are asked, rather then what you prefer.

Have fun,
KOTALBU

Why I left Turk Leyjonu.

Hi Comrade Commanders, I am writting this post to explain myself to my former Comrades in the TurkLeyjonu Squad, and, also, to present myself to my new Comrades, the Members of the KISSARMYEMPIRE Squad. Why did I leave? My former Comrades know, only too well, how hard I have worked for my previous Squad, where I was, proudly, an Officer for several months (10, I think), almost imeadiatelly after I joined. I donated 10,237 troops (received 2,668), invested 299 Rep. Points, and helped everyone as much as I could. That Squad was my "first love" and you've better believe me when I say that it was helish taking the decision of leaving. But I couln't take any more! Couldn't take any more bad examples from "above"! Couldn't take any more "silence" from above! and couldn' take any more lack of "professionalism" from above! I never have fun when I ... don't win (I hate the word so much that I try not to use it) And ...

A few words on ... Heroic Defenses.

Hi, Comrade Commanders, As you all know, SWC gives us the opportunity, twice a day, to test our defensive strategies, and that's what Heroic Defenses are all about! When you click the button "Defend Now", your base will be attacked by a group of "enemy" troops, all of them of the same level as your own HQ. There are 3 different possibilities in regard the composition of those troops: (1) mostly infantry; (2) mostly vehicles, or; (3) a balanced mix of infantry and vehicles. When your Scout Tower "lights up", you can see which of the above 3 options will be in action on the next defense. Apart from your defensive layout, you could also use your Heroes, the troops in your Squad Center and your Starfighters, to help defeating those attacking troops. In my own experience, I only use Heroes (3 at my level) to strengthen my base defenses, and that much has been enough to win 99% of the Heroic Defenses. Since I was at HQ5 level, I think I on...

Ressources and ... Contraband

Hi, Comrade Commanders, Our Comrade Yeu VTH asked me to write something about "Contraband" and, as this is one of the fundamental purposes of this blog, here is what I find most relevant about this issue... Coins and Alloy . There isn't much I can say about these "traditional" resources, except that they should go along with your game plan. Let me explain what I meant: until just a few days, I never worried about these resources, because I could find them every time I needed them ... "steeling" from the rebel scum. But this reality has changed for me, since I upgraded to HQ8! Those who follow this blog already know that I had "complained" for being "matched" only with level 9 (or even 10) opponents. Anyhow, and until just a few days, I always succeeded winning my battles, therefore steeling enough resources to match my needs, but this reality has changed, and not only was I "forced" to escape Dandoran (the ...
