sentry and spy buying

[greengimp]

just thought i would throw it out there that if you have the option of training sentrys and spys or buying their tools train them, believe it or not this is more cost effective.

ah, but if you train them you lose tbg. so in the long run its better to buy weapons.

eh, that may be so; but factor in the reduced casualty in attacking/defending -- and that may well balance it out.

at least if you're training spies/sentries, ur still earning a bit of gold.

there is no one way that is 100% better than the other one. each one has setbacks, pitfalls

training spies/sentries does increase better than tool, but it reduces TBG. but it lowers your army size, so less people attack you and more you can attack, but if you get attacked you lose more real TBG making guys.

on other hand, buying weapons over long run is better and you will still need to army each spys/sentry with tools to be most effiecient.

thats why some people dont try spies and sentries until last days, and some hours until age ends. that why you get more TBG, but then again they attack less and hence earn less money.

Overall it kind of balances out, it all depends whats you idea how to play.

either way just thought i was something that most people prolly didn't know, you guys can pick your method though
