Turning Point is a level 4 clan (we started less than 2 months ago), that is on the verge of getting to level 5. We win 80% of all our matchups, and we are working on getting to 95%. Our war record is outstanding! We work as a team to win, using kik to communicate strategy, and helping our clan mates understand good strategy vs bad strategy. We are a casual clan that is serious about winning wars.

We are looking for any TH7-10 that has better troops than defenses, but their defenses are up to par to the most recent TH. EX: a Town Hall 8 that is working on TH8 troop upgrades, but only has TH7 defenses. A TH9 is working on TH9 troop and hero upgrades, but has TH8 defenses. A TH10 that is working on TH10 troop and hero upgrades, but only has TH9 defenses. We ask that you hold back on the defenses until the troop, wall, and building upgrades are 75% completed.

Here are the ways we work to be more effective in wars:

Turning Point War Strategies
1. We reset the War Search timer. (Start and stop the War Search for Clan matchups) This helps the Clan War matchup to be fair on each side.

2. We ask our clan mates to work on their offenses (Heroes and elixir based upgrades, and walls) before their defenses when they upgrade a Town Hall level. This helps with the Clan wars. The clan war matchup is bases First off of the defenses, 2nd off of the hero levels, and 3rd off of the troop levels. By pushing our clanmates to work on offenses and walls first, we help them overcome and 3 star the opponent that their presence brings to war.

3. We use the app Kik to communicate strategies before making a clan war attack. We ask that everyone posts a drawn out strategy on a screenshot of the base they are attacking in the clan war, and post it on kik with an explanation. This helps the clan mate to completely think through the strategy (not wing it), and helps the co leaders and other clanmates to advise better ways of going about the attack (if they have experience in that plan). This also helps the clan overall... more informed clanmates helps the person to make a solid 3 star attack the first time, which helps the entire clan to win more efficiently and effectively.

4. Our clan rankings (member, elder, and co leader) is formed by those who are the most experienced in clan wars, and the most effective. Members must always post in kik (a screenshot of the base with a plan drawn on it) before their perspective attack for advice by other members, elders, or co-leaders. Elders are members of the clan that have 2 or more attack strategies that they have been proven (by repeated 3 star attacks) proficient in. I.E: golaloon, gowipe, gohowi, gowiwi, holowiwi, etc. Co leaders (for the most part) are chosen by experience and help that is proven solid over months in time.

If a co leader or elder is planning on using a strategy they are not proven proficient in, they must also use kik to communicate their plan, and wait for advice from another member. No one needs to follow the advice given, but if they are not gaining the stars in war, that person will sit a few wars to study different avenues of strategy or troop upgrades.

5. Our war strategy is simple and clear: 1st attack: everyone hits 1 down from their spot in war (if you are 15, hit 16, 1 hits 2.), 2nd attack: Cleanup an attack that was not 3 starred, preferably one that is lower than your 1st attack. After the 1st 12 hrs of war, any base that has not been hit is open to attack.

6. We expect all our members to keep at least a 1:4 ratio. Donations : Donations Received.

7. We expect all members to follow the above guidelines, or they will not war. Kik is a must to be in war.

Other ways we are effective:

We post in kik videos to help broaden the perspective attacks by our clanmates. So we will post solid attack strategies like: gowiwi, golaloon, holowiwi. And we ask our clan members to practice these during farming runs.

We post in kik videos of new updates, and the best ways to use those upgrades in clan wars or farming.

We will force any who miss attacks to sit from war. Communicated emergencies (to a co leader) exempts any from sitting from the next war, as long as that player comes back and communicates the emergency is taken care of prior to the start of the next war.

We War between the hours of 12pm and 8pm Eastern Standard Time. And we war always. If the war search time gets past 8pm, we will wait until the following day, at noon, to start the war search again.

We follow the golden rule, but we have fun in chat.

We are an international clan, but our primary language is English.

We do have some children in chat and participate in Wars, but will not be looking for more. The present children are solid in strategies, and are the Leader's children.


Note:
The Turning Point name is based off of the location of the American Civil War battle that was the turning point of the War between the North (The Union) and the South (The Confederate).

For the Co leaders and Leader of the clan, the name resembled a turning point in our strategies to win in Clash of Clans.
