Somebody should fight or flip through my doodz's stats to see if I should keep going with this army, because the first trooper seems a bit lackluster in kill capacity. (The spy). detrius is the name of the army, and I just recruited a kickass fourth trooper. He started with smart and an assault rifle, and then got juggler for his level up.

Detrius seems all right. I wouldn't worry too much because you really can't optimize things very much in this game and it would become super boring fast if you could. But have your spy use the heavy machine gun – it's better for spies than rocket launchers are.

Have another recruit, he'll make a fine meat shield.

Thanks. I gave you a recruit that seemed like it'd work out pretty well, and I'll probably play the recruits a little bit so they get to be worth fighting with.

your spies favourite weapon should be the heavy machine-gun, not the rocket launcher. for a spy that is useless


I'll give you some recruits, once I can do so again

Scout was an awful choice of profession for the third guy. Anything else would be better. Anything. He'll be nigh useless with just a shotgun, but since he's got wrestler and a heap of speed/dodge improvements, he can be nice against rats, or for confusing the enemy by running into melee range. Otherwise, the weapon/skill loadouts aren't too bad. The spy should really have the machinegun as his preferred weapon, he'll be more effective that way when he appears in the enemy camp.
On the overall though, you don't have any real killer setups yet. If the fourth guy gets some hydroshocks, and maybe an UMP or another MOS-TEK, it'll be nice. Keep pushing others up too, you start getting the really good perks only from 7th level and up.

edit: ye gods, triple-ninja'd!

I'll be giving you a pair of recruits as well.
edit2: Gave one with Assault Rifle, Lucky Charm and Heartbreaker, and another with a Sniper Rifle, Wrestler, and Fists of Fury. The second guy will need some speed upgrades to capitalize on his melee abilities.
If you decide to repay in kind, my army is the Sepulchridudes.

Yeah, it's not too hard to level your recruits up to level 7. Once you start levelling them up to 6 and it gets slow, give them their own recruit and you'll have 100 points to play with.

What do you mean give them their own recruit?

The troopers you are given, if they are actually given, will be unprotected, so you will be able to level them up at your own leisure. And since these troopers are not created by you, the game treats them as any other army - that is, you can also give them two recruits each, yielding a 150-coin boost that's just enough to put them within spitting distance of becoming level 7 within the week. In effect, every recruit you receive can easily be brought up to a very formidable level with no grinding at all, allowing you to rake in more money for your main team in raids.

Sepulchridudes are back. Also, whoever is messing with That Guy Has A Gun's levelling, and leaving witty messages in trooper names - you can't password an army you haven't made yourself. So leave 'im alone.

I made That Guy Has A Gun. Do you want me to password that army, and PM you the password?

Nah, no point. I won't level him any further, and the worst someone can do is spend the money on extra troopers, which won't hurt the main trooper anyway.

This suddenly explains the one man death squads. I upgraded that one guy w/ a coffee thermos instead of toxic shells. I feel like toxics would've been better though

How do you beat the number of army limit? I tried incognito mode on chrome and that worked for a while...
