Battle Fresh vs EvaManning2

Wow! Just wow! I think we demoralize clans with how quickly we come out. We buried EvaManning2 before they even had a chance to know what hit them. 62-16 was the final tally, but that didn't speak to how gun-shy the opposition was. It was almost as if they knew they were beat. They only attacked 12 times. They lost 3 of those attacks. While we lost 3 attacks, we won 42!  We had more 3 star attacks then they had stars. I still think we left stars out there. Honestly we could have easily gotten to 65 and I strongly believe that the day is fast approaching when we are going to need every last star we can muster. So, while it was a great performance, I still see that there is work left to be done.

Our positives:

For the most part, our first attacks were very strong. We had strong communication, and besides a few new people with weaker attacks, our attacking was very solid. This war we only lost 3 battles in all.

Participation was very good. We used 45 of 50 attacks! One inactive cost us two unused attacks, so we were very close to that holy grail of clan wars--total participation. I know we can do it, let's make it our goal for each war and see how close we can get.

Our negatives:

There was one loot attack that wasn't approved by clan leadership and that individual has since been kicked.

Cleaning up stars remains an issue. There were some very easy stars that were left unwon. In my opinion, any opponents base lower than 10 should be three starred every war. This past war 5 bases in that range were not cleaned up for a total of six unwon stars. Those six stars will come back to haunt us in a war very soon. Let's aim to do better.

Most Valuable Player:

A quiet assassin. That's how I would describe the MVP of this past war. He comes in silently. Proceeds to request hogs and in a flash he has three stars. The player I am talking about is jsnake. He not only three starred his claimed base, but he also cleaned up another base in his range almost effortlessly. The best thing about jsnake was that he listened to what the clan needed and did his best to take care of business. Congrats jsnake and congrats to us all on a job well done!

Battle Fresh vs Hellacastle

I wouldn't say we humiliated 'Hellacastle', but we start out very, very strongly. Before the opposing clan even made their first attack, Battle Fresh was ahead by a count of 43-0. They only managed 47 stars the entire war, so after our blitzkrieg, we only needed to grab five more stars to win the war.

Our positives:

Our first attacks were outstanding, with many of which tallying 2 or 3 stars. We have been doing fantastic in that department lately. This war we only lost 4 battles in all.

Our attack strategies were very good. Out of our 46 attacks, there were only 6 or 7 that were not well thought out. This is a decent figure, but in a war against a very strong clan we will need to have those 6 or 7 attacks producing better results if we want to become an elite war clan.

Communication was also very strong. Many people were asking for advice on their attacks before using them. This is something we highly encourage. Do not just leap into something without a plan. Use the experience of your clan-mates to your advantage and leverage that knowledge to help you make very strong clan war attacks.

Our negatives:

There were some claims that were jumped. This can totally throw off the rhythm of the war. We need to make sure all new people are very aware that claim jumping is punishable by kick. We are attacking very well with our first attacks and if we mostly three star those that we claim, the remaining attacks can by-in-large be used for practice or attaining war loot. Claim jumping ruins this.

Cleaning up stars was a negative from this past war. I truly think we left five stars out there at least. If we add those stars to our total, we would be a very tough clan to beat.

Most Valuable Player:

This past war, if I had to choose one player who had the best performance--I would have to choose elron. Although he only got us 4 stars, he took down one base for three stars and cleaned up another base completely to get one more star. While all that is well and good, what made his performance all the more impressive was that he did all of that without spells! Congrats to elron and to all of us on a well won war!

Claims vs

Please refer to our Rule or Claim page for more info on claiming bases and how it all works.

To claim a base to attack, please tell big joe, frankie, FrecklyTag, *The Gamer* or Dark_Bill in clan chat, or if we are not online you can post a message in our group on GroupMe at the following link: https://app.groupme.com/join_group/9245847/C8bjrm. You can download GroupMe app and search 'Battle Fresh' to find us too. Be aware when choosing a base that the base lay out may change between prep day and war day.

*Please take note that all bases claimed but not attacked within 12 hours of war day will become free for all to attack, so please make sure to attack your claimed base within the first 12 hours of war or you may lose it.*

For those not bothered about claiming a base, please read the list before attacking to see what bases are free to attack. Anyone attacking bases marked as #claimed# will risk being kicked at the end of the war. As mentioned already, claiming bases is only for the first 12 hours of war, after that time all bases become unclaimed.

When claiming a base try and choose a base you feel you can get a good result against that is within 10 ranking places of your own rank. If you don’t feel you can get at least 2 stars from a base (ideally 3 stars), then don’t attack it unless you have no better options, and if you don’t feel confident attacking within 10 places of your own rank then just speak to one of the leaders or co leaders in clan chat and we can always find you something lower if needed. We understand some people are not as good at attacking as others, but do not just jump in and attack someone way lower without asking us first, and as always we like people to talk in chat about who they plan to attack even if attacking an unclaimed base.

You can only claim a base with your first attack, this way everyone gets the chance to claim one base. If you use your first attack early and all the other bases you want are claimed then it is maybe best to wait with your second attack, there is a chance that one of your other preferred targets will be available to attack later on if the person claiming it fails to get stars or doesn’t attack it within the 12 hour limit. Please do not rush second attacks and end up losing stars by attacking something you don’t feel comfortable with when you may have much better options later on in war.
