Tactics[]
- Meat Shield: Use them to attract enemy defenses such as the mortar so that thieves, ninja bombs and grunts can get through to wear down the buildings inside until it dies.
- Samurai Rush: Used as a big bunch deployed together, these elite troops can utterly devastate any base. Someone said,
For level 20 bases and below, 12 Samurai at level 1 are more than enough to do the job of flattening a base. For a base with a level 8 to 10 palace (in 2014-08), 27 level 5 samurai on fire have a high chance to bring down more than half of the base.They come, mess things up and then leave.
