Hiya bud,

Clan invite sent. You can accept it at the BOTTOM RIGHT of your Character page.

Welcome to our little family. Let's enjoy and have fun together. :)


1. Please make it a habit to READ all clan mails, especially those regarding clan news.

*** IF YOU DON'T RECEIVE A SINGLE CLAN MAIL IN MORE THAN A WEEK, YOU HAVE YOUR CLAN MAIL TURNED OFF ***

To turn if on, go to --> http://www.lordswm.com/sms_clans.php?clan_id=7705

and then tick the box for "new clan message" icon at the BOTTOM RIGHT of the page.


2. We have an active Skype chat group for members, so if you have Skype and wants to join the group, please let me know your Skype ID and I'll add you. It's only typing and NO [audio] headset or [video] camera is needed. :)


3. Do register at our clan forums - http://angelsndemons.freeforums.org/index.php


The forums is a rich source of info about the game (esp the Publishing House section) as well as activities for those who are interested. One of our forums admins will approve you and grant you full forums access soon.

Try to use the same name as your LWM account for easy reference, BUT DIFFERENT PASSWORD.

Once you have been granted full clan forums access, you can see our past clan mails here,

- http://angelsndemons.freeforums.org/angels-demons-clan-mails-t294.html


4. For clan record, which country are you from?


5. Our MC have a clan depository [for renting all types of arts] accessible from Portal Ruins, The Wilderness & Empire Capital - http://www.lordswm.com/sklad_info.php?id=127

It's stocked with many shop arts + many enchanted and RARE arts too! The rental rates are much cheaper than the artifact shop, so please support our own Depository whenever you need to rent arts. :)

You can access our Depository by going to Portal Ruins, The Wilderness or Empire Capital -> Go to Map page -> Click on our little clan's icon.

[a] If you have any enchanted [min. 40%] arts or rare set you want to put in Depository for leasing to earn some regular and good income, just write to our StoreKeeper [http://www.lordswm.com/pl_info.php?id=4677147]


6. Our clan have 2 resource facilities,

- Crystal Cavern in Portal Ruins
- Sawmill [Wood] in Portal Ruins

Try to buy Crystals and Wood from our facilities whenever you need them.


7. Our clan have 5 artifact facilities,

- Helmet of Grace in The Wilderness
- Workshop of Fortune in The Wilderness
- Staff of Oblivion in The Wilderness
- Ruby Boots in Sublime Armor
- Reprisal Sword in Lizard Lowlands

Try to buy and use these arts in your battles whenever you can, so we can have gold and improve the enrolling for these facilities.


8. One of the reasons for our clan continued 'success' is our members' 'one-for-all, all-for-one' mentality. So please play your part to protect and defend our clan's facilities and participate in clan battles whenever you can.

Only when all of us do a little part, can our clan stay strong and united. :)


9. Our clan is as strong as we are is because every member do their little part contributing to the clan, and this can only be done if clan have active members.

So our clan have a rotation policy. If a member have some real life issues to attend to [we all do :)], and can't be active for a while, he may be remove from the clan if there are ex-members/players waiting to re-/join us to help out in an event/defense.

This way, member don't miss anything since he's not playing the game anyway. :)

Once the member settles his/her real life issues and can be active again, he will be able to rejoin the clan IMMEDIATELY and FOREVER FREE of charge, regardless how many times in/out of clan. :)

Once a member of A&D, forever an A&D member. :)


If you have any questions regarding clan [or other game stuff], feel free to write me anytime. :)


Once again, welcome to Angels and Demons MC, lets enjoy and have some fun together, my friend ! :)


 * * * How To Defend Our Facilities [Facility Defense Battle] * * *

[1] ** Defending A Facility **

The admins have introduced an automatic system for rewards to be given out automatically to all warriors who defend clan facilities.

The reward is calculated at,

** Combat level of defender x 100 gold x reward % set by clan. **

Currently, the reward is set at 100%, although this will change if defenders are required to wear some enchanted arts to finish a battle fast [like when we have doubles/triple defenses within 20-30 minutes], or when a facility is badly damaged.

** A clan mail will be sent to inform about any increase in reward **

The reward for EACH warrior in a team for winning a defense is -

=============
Defense [at 100%]
=============

CL5 - 500 gold
CL6 - 600 gold
CL7 - 700 gold
CL8 - 800 gold
CL9 - 900 gold
CL10 - 1000 gold
.. and so on, until...
CL20 - 2000 gold

** After each SUCCESSFUL defense, the reward will be automatically transferred to the member's account. **

• As always, clan will compensate back gold for all 1x3/2x3 [incomplete teams] lost defense battles. You can write to me for compensation if I didn't see the battle. *

• In some cases, where members need to finish a defense fast so they can join another 20-30 minutes later, the rewards will be increased to compensate for the extra arts used. **


[2] ** The Weekly Lucky Draw Defenses ! **

At lease once [or few times] a week, the reward for a defense will be increased to 150% !

CL5 - 750 gold
CL6 - 900 gold
CL7 - 1050 gold
CL8 - 1200 gold
CL9 - 1350 gold
CL10 - 1500 gold
CL11 - 1650 gold
CL12 - 1800 gold
CL13 - 1950 gold
CL14 - 2100 gold
CL15 - 2250 gold
CL16 - 2400 gold
CL17 - 2550 gold
CL18 - 2700 gold
CL19 - 2850 gold
CL20 - 3000 gold

• This will be completely random and no one will know in advance which defense it will be. :)

• [If I remember] the Lucky Defense will happen once a week [sometimes twice] between Monday - Sunday.

If, for whatever reasons, there's no Lucky Defense [LD] for that week, it will be brought forward to the following week.

• Of course, like all defense rewards, to win the 150% reward, the team have to win the defense battle. :D


*** The Lucky Defense [LD] will only happen when there's no other increase in the rewards for a defense as stated in the clan mail. ***


[3] ** Other Occasions We Increase Reward ! **

[a] We increase defense reward to 110% when server have an event.

[b] To celebrate special occasions [Christmas, New Year, Anniversary etc], reward will be increased to 150% for the entire duration of the celebrations ! :)


[4] ** Defense Compensation **

Clan will compensate back members for their artifacts for all 1x3 and 2x3 teams. Compensation will be done AUTOMATICALLY once leader knows about it. Just write to leader to claim back compensation if compensation is not done after 48 hours..


[5] ** Buying Arts From Our Facility **

We have 4 facilities that sell arts - Ruby Boots [lvl 12], Amulet of Fortune [lvl 14], Staff of Oblivion [lvl 16] and Helmet of Grace [lvl 16].

** For all members, you can/should buy these arts from our facilities and wear for all battles whenever you can, so facilities have some gold for enrolls and earn some income.


[6] ** Attacking Facility **

Our clan also give out rewards to members for OFFICIAL [clan mail will be sent] attacks. The rewards is

====
WINS
====

700 gold --> Levels 10 and below
1000 gold --> Levels 11-14
1300 gold --> Levels 15 and above


*** Rewards are given only if a member write and inform me that he wants to claim the reward. ***

• Reward only for WINS.

• Reward only for OFFICIAL attacks announced in clan mail.

• Since we need time to manually calculate each members attacks, the reward will be paid out a few days after the attack.

• It may take a few days for the reward to be dispensed. PLEASE BE PATIENT.

••• Tips On Doing Defense & Increase Win Rate •••

Hiya bud,

There's no 100% sure way to win a defense. No one can win defense 100% of the time. So don't be dishearten if you lose a few. We all do. :)

But it's not hard to get a 70-80% win rate. :)

Since beginning of this year, almost 100 members have at least a 70% win rate and higher. :)

- http://masati.ru/warstat [use the drop down list to select our clan number -> 7705]

Here are some tips -

[1] Always wear at least full arts for defense. You should be able to kill at least your direct enemy

Of course, wearing 1-2 enchants will increase the chance of winning [ESPECIALLY if you are the highest level in the team]. If you can't kill your direct enemy, your lower level team mates can't help much. :)

And since winning gives a gold reward, wearing 1-2 enchantments = higher win rate = more gold reward = will cover for most/all of the enchantments worn.


[2] Whenever possible, try to join in a balanced [+/- 0-2 combat levels] team.

Of course, it's not always possible to be in a balanced team, like when there are emergencies [like less than 1-2 minutes left and many empty spots] and members have to jump in to fill empty spots.


[3] ALWAYS play as a team and communicate with each other. If everyone does his own things, it won't matter how much enchantments a team have, they might still lose the battle due to poor team tactics.


[4] [IMPORTANT] Look at and know what's happening in the WHOLE battlefield. Imagine all 3 armies belong to you. Don't just concentrate on your direct enemy and forget about what's happening elsewhere.


[5] Always try to identify the most dangerous enemy [Chaos caster, demons with lots of gated units, etc] and enemy troops [big stack of shooters, etc] and work together and kill that enemy soonest!


[6] NEVER let a big stack of shooters shoot from start to end of battle ! Almost guaranteed loss. Block/kill them soonest. :)

[7] Leave slow, turtle enemy stacks [like Guardians, Ogre etc] as LAST TO KILL. Don't spend precious turns killing them. Gang smash it together with your team mates at the end.


[8] A magic Chaos/Nature caster should never be the highest level in the team. Magic casters should have equal/higher combat level Might-build team mates to help kill his direct enemy and allow his Hero enough time to keep casting spells.


[9] A magic caster should preferably be in the corner position.


[10] If you are much lower level than your team mates, try to support your team mates since you cannot hurt the higher level enemies much ->

• Play as support build [Holy, Darkness] and buff [Stone/Rapid/Bless] your higher-level team mate(s), and/or nerf [Delay, Weakness, Curse etc] the enemies.

• Use one of your smaller stack unit to help take retaliation for your higher level team mate.

• Buff your higher level Might team mate(s) troops instead of your own.

Remember that if the highest level in the team die early, it's very hard to win the battle. :)


[11] Potion of Skill - http://www.lordswm.com/art_info.php?id=skill_drink

If you are playing a low/mid faction level, drinking a Potion of Skill can help your army get the virtual bonuses [Attack, Defense and Initiative] of higher faction levels.

How It Works -

• The potion effects will only work if at least ONE HUMAN player is EQUAL or LOWER Combat Level than yourself.

• You will get all the faction leveling up bonuses [-1 faction level] of this team mate. So if this team mate is faction level 10, you will be 'virtual' faction level 9.

• So make sure you have at least one team mate who is EQUAL or LOWER combat level with a high faction level.

• If you are using this Potion for defense, don't create ! Check the combat and FSL of the members of an opened team, and join a team that will maximize the potion effects.


[12] IMPORTANT - If you are low/mid faction level, wear at least 1-2 enchantments to compensate for your weaker army.


Enjoy & have fun :)

*** [IMPORTANT] Some Additional Useful Info For Facility Defense ***

1. ** Pass Control To A Clan Mate During DEFENSE Battle **

You can pass control of your army to a clan mate if you are having lag or connection problems during battle.


[A} Conditions To Pass Control -

• You can only pass control to a clan mate EQUAL or HIGHER combat level than you.

• The player taking control must NOT be doing another battle or in a card game.

• The player taking control must NOT be WATCHING a battle or in a card game.

[b} How To Pass Control -

• Inform [clan mail, clan chat, Skype, etc] the clan member that you are passing control to him/her.

• During battle, click on the 'Arrow/circle' thing at the top left of the battlefield.

• Select the clan member [equal or higher level] you want to pass control of your army to.

• Click Ok.

• Tell clan member to go to his/her CHARACTER PAGE [at the bottom right of page], and click 'Accept'

• The player taking control will be automatically brought to the battle after clicking 'Accept'.


2. ** AI Automatically Taking Control **

If a player misses 3 turns, AI will automatically take control of your army and play for you. So there's no chance of AFK in defense battles. )

{NOTE} - You can regain control from AI by clicking on the little box at the bottom right of the battle screen, next to 'Show all messages'.


3. ** Unlimited Changing of Faction **

You can change faction as many times as you like, so even if you are playing a new/low faction, you can always change faction immediately to help out in defenses emergencies, and change back after the defense. )


4. ** Fighting With Clan Mates **

• As in a family of 250 members, there are bound to be little misunderstandings or disagreement here and there. It's inevitable and unavoidable. So we encourages all members to be more understanding and tolerant. :)


• AFK, loss of connection, lagging and problems in loading a battle are part and parcel of the game. All of us have experienced it.

No member would join a battle in full/enchanted arts just to deliberately AFK from the start and waste his/her gold/arts. It's just not logical.

So when you experience such cases, try to take maximum time for your initial turns to give the member chance to load his/her battle. And if he/she really afk, try to be more understanding - He/she probably felt worse than the team mates as he/she not only wasted his gold and arts, but also let his team mates down. :)


• If there's any problems with a clan mate, write and let me know. I have been told I'm quite good at solving such issues. haha.. :)


5. ** Potion of Skill **

- http://www.lordswm.com/art_info.php?id=skill_drink

If you are playing a new faction with low faction level, drinking a Potion of Skill can help your army get the virtual bonuses [Attack, Defense and Initiative] of higher faction levels.

How It Works -

- The potion effects will only work if at least One HUMAN player is Equal or LOWER COMBAT LEVEL than you.

- You will get all the faction leveling up bonuses [-1 faction level] of this team mate. So if this team mate is faction level 10, you will be 'virtual' faction level 9.

- So if you are using this Potion for defense, don't create, but choose an opened team, check their faction level, and join one that maximize the potion effects.

Good luck & have fun ! :)

 ••• Armaments ! - New [Best !] Game Feature and All Information •••

Hiya all,

Armaments are one of the most exciting updates introduced ! Armaments makes ALL our factions' armies stronger ! ^^


[*] You can see what Armaments you have [and renew any you want to] by going to Castle page and clicking on 'Creature armaments'.

Or use this direct link ---> http://www.lordswm.com/arts_for_monsters.php


[1] Armaments are PERMANENT. Once you win one, it will be available to you forever. So try to earn as many as you whenever possible. :)


[2] Activated Armaments applies in ALL types of battles [hunts, quests, ambushing, server tournaments and events, Quick tourneys, etc]


[3] Armaments are available for ALL faction troops, even those not yet playable for now.


[4] For each creature, there are 6 different Armament types,
• +1 Attack
• +2 Attack
• +1 Defense
• +2 Defense
• +1% Initiative
• +2% Initiative


[5] Every time you loot an Armament in a battle, it will automatically be activated [even those not in your current faction or playable ones] for 30 days.


[6] Armaments have effect in all types of battles.


[7] Armament effects of the same stats for one creature type do NOT stack up.


[8] Armament is tier/class specific. So [example] Brilliant Unicorn's armaments works only for Brilliant Unicorn, and NOT for Unicorns or Pristine Unicorns.


[9] The Armament with better stats of a type are automatically equipped on the creature. Stack numbers do not matter.


[10] Should an Armament of the same type be looted with an existing activated one, the new one will replace the old one and its durability term is extended by another 30 days.


[11] For now, Armaments can ONLY be looted in surv-related battles;

• Defense battles [highest chance to loot Armaments],
• Attacking free/available facilities,
• Attacking other clan's facilities,
• Intercepting challenges [the battle against AI when attacking another clan's facilities].

• ...and 3-STARS Watchers' Guild battles.

* It may also be found in some server events [like Portal of Time etc].

[12] The chance to loot Armaments is higher for Defense combats compared to all other types of Surv and event battles.


[13] Armaments' effects have a durability of 30 days.

Once an Armament is looted, it stays with you forever.

** Even if an Armament expires, it will still be available to be renewed anytime you want. **

A player can renew whichever one(s) they want for some gold [starting with 500 gold] for another 30 days.


[14] Each additional time we repair the same Armaments, the costs goes up by 10%.


[15] When an Armaments of the same type is looted, it will replace the old existing one, and its repair cost will drop down to the original value.


[16] Creatures armed with Armaments will have modified graphics display in combats.


Good luck looting these Armaments and make your current and future armies stronger ! :)
