Do any of you play Clash of Clans. My daughter and I have been playing for over a year. I will play for a few minutes every day and for about an hour on Saturdays.

I had been in a good clan for a number of months but then it seemed to fall apart. We started our own clan and it needs more members.

My favorite attack is:  
3 healers  
16 giants  
12 wall breakers  
16 goblins  
1 Barbarian king  
16 archers  
14 Barbarians  
2 rage spells are also a good addition.  
I sometimes mix things up and attach with a bunch of Wizards, but they’re expensive.

Any other players out there?

I’ve been playing for about six months now. At first I was in a clan, but then made another village on my ipod and both of me are now the only ones in our clan. I did that so I could donate and receive troops without being in another clan. I farm, so my army is archers, barbarians, and goblins. I’m at TH8 now, with just two teslas to upgrade. Not looking forward to TH9, since the loot penalty is rougher.

I goggled at the number of poster ads for it on the Metro North line last week. Two or three on every car and several at each station. Mind-boggling.
