I am more interested in the history than the strategy.
Ironically many look at who’s at the top of the neighbourhood and go “lol nope” to attacking them because they see the lvl of their GBs and convince themselves they’re unable to be touched.They are a visual strategy saying, "You might be better served by make friends with us rather than making war. Look at how, strong, intelligent and rich we are.
Higer lvl gbs?i see it as a CHALLENGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Ironically many look at who’s at the top of the neighbourhood and go “lol nope” to attacking them because they see the lvl of their GBs and convince themselves they’re unable to be touched.
I've wondered about that from time to time...but then I decided the other extreme would be the more practical way to go....A city built only of Great Buildings! An interesting concept that I may pursue one day...Yes, I said Great Buildings, not gB'S. In fact, I am more interested in the history than the strategy.
