i see the A but i dont see the t and m

elf dont have enough population. u'll be lucky to pull off a good a/t or a/m, nevermind a/t/m.

a/t will be the easier option since thieves are easy to get. in that case u'll need to cut down some towers and spread them in thief den and TG, then up ur draft to about 64% and get 4 raw tpa

if u r determined to be a/m, then what u really need to do is convert to ~60% guild for a week or so to get ur wpa to ~3.5, then u can do the buildings u said above, raze ur thief den and instead get 20% guilds. u might also wanna consider cut down the banks and spread that into TG and towers.

the best solution tho, is to forget a/t/m and just be heavy attacker.

[Cheech]

A/t/m can't be done with elf since you won't have enough land to make TDs that cover thief losses sufficiently and enough towers/guilds to give you adequate spell coverage. I'd choose 1 or the other or straight attacker.

[VT2]

Have fun getting stretched thing trying to reach even a/t/m status - as opposed to A/t/m.

[bob98685]

here ill be more constuctive and say how u can ALMOST do it and let you chose from there

Land: 1,000 Acres
Books to Allocate: 0 books

now IF you can get 900 bpp and keep it

7. Libraries: 50 (5%)
8. Stables: 80 (8%)

Total Land: 1,000 Acres (100% built)

** Effects Summary (Available Buildings Only) **
1. +2,000 maximum population, +69% birth rate
2. Produce 4,508 bushels (5,635 with FL)
3. +12.42% offense bonus
4. Training about 2.76 wizards per hour
5. Produce 1,104 runes per hour
6. -58.88% losses, +44.16% effectiveness
7. +9.5% science effects (not affected by BE)
8. Produce 74 horses/hour, hold 4,800 horses

3 raw wizzys and tpa
8 leets
8 dspecs
8 pezzys
200% p/r
45 mod dpa 75 mod opa 7 mod wpa 7.5 mod tpa 17 net gc after IA and yes the above BE is right 92% now the only way this would work is if you run alot of sci and were able to keep it with no rax you would have to use qf for just over 12 hour atk times u have no gs so your prim for gb and defence is kinda low with all leets out so rest of your kingdom would need around the same defence

[bob98685]

i only say its kinda low as most kingdoms that would think to do this are probly running 50-60 so they can try and honor whore as why else yould u want to atm

[Elb]

Thanks for the feedback. I have actually started experiencing some issues with the low wpa and tpa in our current war - whereas our first 2 wars i was able to manage spell and thief ops without much hassle.

Guess I was just lucky we went against kingdoms with good targets for me earlier.

[Brendo]

looks pretty good military wise but you should raise your theives to 2 raw and wizzie pump to 3 raw

my military is the same but my BE is like 85% and i have 10% homes. so i dont know how you have 97%.

[lightning reverand]

Early age every one has low tpa n wpa so it was easy for you. Now that most people are bit more pumped it will be harder for you with those number. I Suggest you go for A/m with just enough TPA to stop getting pummeled by opposition provinces. :)
