Darkthrone strategy, Undead/cleric


If it there's anyone interested in my recently-formulated strategy for Darkthrone.com, this might help. By the way, I'm playing the Undead/cleric race. There are other good strats, but I'm betting on this one's effectivity. We'll just have to wait and see. Mine's @ level 4 right now, and the defense is good since I'm winning against their attacks(1 per day).

At the beginning, you will need a lot of defense and money, so go for Defense and Population(to increase miners) push...

Level 1-5 (Defense + Population push)

You're going to start on bad defense(1-10 hits per day), so push defense first and gain money by pushing the miners' population...

Phase 1 (The Starting Phase)
1 Train 8 Miners, 1 Spy, and 1 Sentry.
2 For next day, train 1 Soldier, 2 Guards, and 7 Miners.
3 Buy Long Bows.
4 If you cant buy long bows, buy Houses.
5 Bank extra money.
6 Next days/week, upgrade Mercenary Camp to level 2.

Mercenaries are important in the beginning, so that when you concentrate on Banking Phase later, you'll still get a minimum of 1 mercenary per day. You only pay 100,000 GCs, the same to Long Bow's cost. Extra offense for pillaging attacks(when you really need some urgent cash!!!). Farming for noobs is good in this stage but dont exceed to level 5!

Phase 2 (The Banking Phase)
1 Train all to Miners.
2 Buy houses until you reach the limit.
3 Bank lots of money. (for future Upgrades)
4 Buy long bows from remaining money, but this is arbitrary.

Phase 3 (The Upgrade Phase, yee-haa!!!)
1 Train 75% to Miners.
2 Train 25% to Guards.
3 Upgrade Fortification and eventually,
4 Upgrade Mine level

Phase 4 (The Pre-Attack/Level-up Phase)
1 Train all to Soldiers.
2 Upgrade Offense.
3 Bank extra money.

From here, you should be ready for a Brief WAR. You will increase your level from 5-10. From that level, use the same strat from phases 1 to 4 and get ready for results.
Dont forget to bank extra money, and join a decent and active alliance...
Enjoy...
