When The Gentlemen was reorganized under my leadership, the goal was simple...get everyone to generously donate in an environment of trust. The primary advantages to clan membership at that time was getting your clan castle filed with the highest quality troops as quickly as possible. Since the introduction of Clan Wars, that goal has changed somewhat. It is still vitally important to exchange high level troops but to do well in Clan Wars, you now need to recruit and retain high level players with strong bases, tacticians who are skilled at taking down tough defenses, people who know how to work together as a team, communicating and coordinating around a war schedule. Strategy, tactics, participation, and communication are now equally important.
The requirements and responsibilities of a Co-leader has to change as well. All of our current Co-leaders have met the basic requirement of being generous donors who contribute high numbers of quality troops to both CCs and WCs. They also exemplify positive role models and continuously contribute to the development of trust and well being in chats. Going forward we also need to recognize the contributions of strong players who continuously defend our honor and reputation in Clan Wars with impregnable defenses and dominating attacks as well as veterans who show up for every Clan War ready with both attacks willing to make sacrifices in the best interests of the clan. These valued members continue to pad our coffers with gold and elixir after each Clan War win, allowing us to grow stronger as a clan. With that, I will be promoting several new members to the ranks of co-leaders to join an already impressive team of clan stewards. Please check the Members page* to see the active list of Co-leaders. I will also be updating the website to include the specific responsibilities of all Co-leaders. Thanks! * The list of members has been moved from the About page to the Members page. This was one of the closest matches we had since battling against our brother clan, HolgerDK Mini. The early part of Battle Day was a heated neck-n-neck race with less than 2 stars separating the score any any time. Then midway, The Gentlemen pulled away and never looked back. Looking at the clan sheet told the whole story. Out of the top 15 players for both teams, TG1 had 14 players who contributed 2 attacks while Cash Bandits could only muster 9. The remainder of Cash Bandits didn't have the skills or firepower to crack our superb defenses. One of our bases took 5 attempts before someone was able to 3 star it. Nice job everyone!
TG2 continues their winning streak with another handy victory against the jellyfish gods. With a record 14 3-stars attacks, the jellyfish gods had no defense strong enough to hold back the tide of TG2. The feeder is proving it has staying power even with several high-level members moving up to TG1. Credit goes everyone in the clan who showed up on battle day to perform their attacks, to some great new members who will soon be joining us permanently in TG1, the awesome co-leaders who continue to equip our war castles with only the best, and of course, Alicia (fluppie and mikey). Great job guys!
TG1 is facing their first feeder clan in the form of Cash Bandits 2. Their parent clan is curently at 18688 trophies and recruiting level 60+... leaving CB2 with a level 45+ roster. They are packing several level 70+ players including their level 74 leader, Dragonflame890. They have strong bases top to bottom and doesn't look to be giving away anything in this war. The Gentlemen will have to earn this win. Good luck mates!
In case you haven't already noticed, we have brand spanking new battle timers for TG1 and TG2 on the right hand column. (or if you're looking at this in mobile mode, then you'll have to scroll down to the bottom of the page to see it.)* Right now it requires that I manually set them but hopefully in the future we get get on a set Clan War schedule and the timers can run automated and unassisted. They will count down time to next Clan War and time to Battle Day. Now no more questions about when the next war starts. Thx! TG2 is going for their 5th straight Clan War win against another veteran clan with 8 wins of their own. The jellyfish gods look a little inactive at the moment with 17+ members showing no activity for this period. We hope it won't be another sleeper clan as we are looking for some competition. We have a lot of new members and TG1 members have returned to start their own war in main. Here's hoping for another exciting Battle Day!
Came across this recently. Thought it was cute. Going to try to remember to do this when I get maxed out.
The feeder's 4th Clan War was a rousing success with a record-breaking score of 101-36! We hit Jadden's Dogs with both quality AND quantity courtesy of TG1 veterens and our awesome new recruits. A record 71 attacks with 49 wins while maintaining a very respectable 85.0% average destruction. Those are numbers any clan would be proud of. TG2 remains undefeated. Well done!
