Tips for New/bad people?

Even in the begginer games, and in games called "noobs only" I often find myself being easily outclassed by even the lowest of levels, so do you, as a person who could possibly know how to play, have any tips on how to play if you're a beginner?

- send enough ally requests on first turn, so that you won't get outnumbered (first turn ally reqs are often very important)
- learn to properly wall your cities and stuff (most noobs don't do this although it's very effective for your defence)
- don't forget to use transports to be faster than your enemies (many noobs don't use them too or only rarely)
- always have an eye on the SP of the players, the game duration and the diplomacy (else it easily can happen that you attack the wrong people)
- don't be too passive and don't ally practically everyone or else you easily can lose by SP (attacking other players brings more SP than attacking neutral units/cities)
- use Perfect Defence as a strategy and spam a lot of infantry with it (it's a very good alround strategy and easy to use for beginners)
- search the forum for more tips
- the next time you make such a thread, post it in the forum below this one

Ok I think this will help, and if I ever post something like this again, yes, I will post it in the one below (if a mod sees this can you move it to the correct one?)

Are you mad? This is the basis for ally-fuggery!

Yes!

Not necessarily transports... depends on funds and other expansion methods... walking! Rule should be: expand fast but consistently.

Not necessarily SP, but troops and countries (cities) hold! High SP can be due to fast but not consolidated expansion.

Yes. But this one contradicts your first point!

Basically yes. But for 50k Worldgames (common games among low ranks) there are better strategies (specially for fast expansion). But basically yes!

Eh, I think you understood some points very wrong there, Mr. Flaneur, but think whatever you want, you little troll
(my ignore is getting bigger and bigger here, it's a good feeling)...

Please do not hesitate in correcting my misunderstanding. It's all about learning. Isn't it?

I can not read what you say Flaneur. People who cannot into logic and totally distort what I say, they get on my ignore list. Arguing with people like you is not in my interest here.

Wait-how did you know he posted? :I

Oh ok. Anyway thanks for the tips those that have given them, they've kind of helped and I got my first ever elimination (led by me getting annihilated instantly after but that's beside the point) due to it.

Joining a clan is best tip
