I guess I'm doing something wrong too. The fact that one didn't need to consider what one was up against in Jupiter til at pretty high attrition was very nice. If one has to continually change troops in order to fight and speed is important, than that is a pretty big drawback. Im sure I will learn eventually, but it reminds me of another age, though I can't remember which one, where I had to keep changing units depending who I was up against. The fact is, it isn't fun. Maybe if I wasn't on mobile, it would be easier to change troops, but dragging and dropping is simply not fun. Hopefully, Ill have to do it less in time, but that may be a long time in the future. My boosts probably need to be 3000 or something like that and I don't have the buildings even if I had the space. Add to that, I can no longer complete GE5. I did watch the video that a member of Beta posted. It was extremely helpful, but I simply don't have the boosts to win battle 78. I added 360 blue boosts to get as far as I got, but I would have to add hundreds more to get to how many he had when he finally won, and my blue attack is about 100 less than his and no way to raise that that I know of. And goods are an issue.
Add to that, that one really could get the goods to raise the new GBs, without moving up, and yes, I do regret moving up. Probably don't even really need those gbs, if one had stayed in Jupiter. I could win all but 2 of GE5 and could go over 100 attrition. I had plenty of goods to negotiate the last 2 in GE5. If they want to add a challenge, don't make it harder for Titan in gbg. Add a new feature where no matter what age you are in, you have to use the correct units, where you can't use extremely high boosts to be able to use the wrong units and where speed is never an issue.
Hopefully, it will get better in time, but even in Jupiter, I felt that the game made it easier for lower ages to go to very high attrition. There doesn't really appear to be any advantage of moving up in ages, which doesn't make sense to me. In fact, it really seems like one has more disadvantages for moving up.
