Fort to level 20 and Conquerors Badge to level 10
My league is Asgard on facebook server 1 The Dark Plains for anyone reading this thread that does not already know this and here is how we done it
1st it took us just over a week and a half to get these both done with many factors that came into play, yes my league is a very active league but on contrary to what many would think, under 5 in our league coin a lot, the rest of us coin very little or not at all, but it's our ability to network and teamwork extreemly efficiently when we come up with plans to get the job done is what makes us the league we are and we had luck on our side, fate or what ever you all like to call it
The Beacon Massacres was the start of it all, when we was a beacon league we had well over 50 beacons at level 5 including beachfront border beacons and the best rank we could get was 19 in the world, sure the de was everywhere then, but our fort was level 8 back then and we had no intentions of taking it to 20 either, but of course back then we got merced by the then Lithuanian Empire (who is now re named Reborn Empire) on our beacons so we made the decision a few years ago to give away all of our beacons and try our hand at offense as we were always defense players so used to fast walling beacons to kill offense and now we do both for the fun of it
Now during all of this time a massive chunk of what was once all level 5 beacons inside of the border area of our map became mostly level 1 beacons, we are talking atleast 1k or more of level 1 beacons in the inner area in which almost all were killed during beacon massacre and then after before the leagues who used to own them could get all their league defense into the beacons so our map also has a huge dead balur owned area
As we grew in offense we decided to start upgrading our fort, I would scout leagues carefully for each wanted upgrade and choose the ones that looked like they never had their forts defended well and I never got it wrong with this strategy, we would then kill the forts to upgrade ours
now getting level 19 fort was pretty easy, that middle area of the map because we had billions of offense and defense in our league points we only needed 3 level 4 strategic beacons in the dead area and top 25 league rank to get this, so we killed 3 beacons of level 5 in that area and took the level 1 beacons off balur around them and with many of our badges maxed out at 10 it got us the top 25 rank and we used saph to boost our fort to 19 as we already had the fort kill from killing Rejects fort
the level 20 fort was just as easy, luck was on our side in this 1, we was missing the level 19 or higher fort kill and silly us didn't look at the requirements properly and saw we needed 5 level 5 beacons not 3 like we had lol, so we killed another 2 in the strategic areas of the map, then boosted them with saph to level 5 from 4 costing 35000 saph each (ouch) then took more level 1 beacons which linked the whole field up in the inner area getting us to top 5 league rank, Conquerors badge also went to level 9 then and we were sitting there still without the fort kill to level up
Lucky enough 1 of our Captains came through with the goods being friends with another league who had level 19 fort and that league was kind enough to allow us to do a friendly downgrade of their fort, once we had that I boosted our fort with saph to 20 and not 10 mins after that the alliance Phobos/SL came in and started taking the level 1 beacons from us in massive amounts to drop our rank, but it was to late we got our fort to 20
level 10 Conquerors badge was not as easy but we still achieved it, we had dropped 2 beacons from our league and held onto 3 strategic beacons in that area and was hunting around over the next few days deciding on what to do, then another league came to me with the offer to help us as they had upgraded 3 in the same area and just got their Conquerors to 10, (our badges don't count for Conquerors as its realm needed not rank that matters and we needed that 25k realm, so we borrowed the 3 in a friendly, took those to level 5 fast and many of us set out catching all of the level 1 on the map until we got that 25k realm, that huge area of level 1ns all linked up to the strategic level 5 in the area to do this
PS: Stoneheart had only just been released when we got our fort to 20 and Conquerors to 10 so it was a great distraction for the enemy alliance at the time because the ingame council does not show the capture of level one beacons and we caught close to 800 of them to get that 25k ream
