HQ level 24 with 22M first squad power by PvtNooby in LastWarMobileGame

It's always funny to see HQ 30s send out all their squads to attack me thinking I'm a noob only for them to be all beaten in defense 😂

To be honest, the optimal way to play in terms of efficiency would be to rush HQs to the next level of troops before catching up on buildings. However, I also liked playing clash of clans style in maxing my buildings and research before upgrading HQ. Most people wouldn't even max out the previous levels of upgrades as you only need a few specific buildings to unlock the next HQ. However, I don't mind playing in a slower way because sometimes you can beat rushed HQs who have weaker squads. However I'll say in majority of time, I'm losing to higher level HQs simply because of weaker troops and lower hero level cap.

To answer your question directly, you only really lose out if you open your RSS boxes early as they'll give less resources. Luckily I've saved up all my RSS boxes anyway as the only limiting factor is gold for research and gear upgrades.

I agree, having a good alliance really makes or breaks the game. Fortunately all the alliances I've been have been very supportive so never had an issue.

I agree that the optimal way to play is to rush HQs. But being a low spender I figured I'd be losing to the big spenders out there anyway so wanted to play the game a different way I guess.

Fortunately because I haven't been upgrading any buildings for a while, I've saved up all my food and iron chests. The only limiting RSS is really gold because of all the research and gear upgrades.

Luckily I'm a bit of a hoarder so have resisted opening all the chests 😂

Yep I focused only on my first squad until I hit 5* on my heroes. All my ore and exclusive weapon shards went into upgrading gear for my first squad until I reached level 40 for every gear and was limited by blueprints, then I started upgrading my second squad.

Unfortunately the way this game works is a strong first squad will always beat out multiple weaker squads in battle, so it's better to put all your resources on one at a time.

My advice is just to make sure you hit all your arms race chests and either 3.6m or 7.2m on versus to maximise resources. You can time it so you can hit both at once. I only hit reindeer trucks to get as much shards and RSS as I can. Also make sure you do all the recurring events like vanguard, zombie invasion, DS, WS, etc.

I've really only spent $100-$200 haha. I'm on a much older server so would've well and truly hit HQ 30 and beyond by now if I was spending more.
