Bruto and Cleeves. Don't worry, guys. You can return log in for another 50 days to get 150 gold;)

Much of this information is available on the wiki for Narcos: Cartel Wars, although it is nowhere near complete. Training camp level 17 is listed the same as @KAMIKAZA says it is. http://narcos-cartel-wars.wikia.com/wiki/Training_Camp

I'm not complaining about anything. I am just providing evidence that what we are being told is incorrect. We can't have everything we discuss here work in our favor. Many of us just like to know that what we are being told is the truth, myself included. I guess I should know better than to...

15 raids in 20 hours while on a 1 day shield with my finca exposed. 12 raids to go on a resource collecting spree.

It is retroactive and applied to all attacks.

I just pulled the trigger on training camp level 13. Thanks for the advice.

Yep, seems I have a fairly full map of players and outposts I can't take down. Since I seem to have hit a wall and because you clearly know what you are doing, I am going to take your advice. Only key offensive upgrades for me for the foreseeable future. I leveled up far too fast and am...

I do have three builders but I don't think I could collect enough resources to do multiple big upgrades in a week of only clearing outposts. I think I might also find the game boring doing it this way. If it works, this strategy could prove useful in upgrading squad camps though. Thanks for...

Finca upgrading to level 17. Cost me 80 gold for one shield. Paid $15 CDN for 1500 gold, which means this upgrade cost me about 80 cents. I can live with that ;)

My squads are at 14 (2) and 13 (2). Training Camp is at 12, helipad at 14, My main troops (Gordos and RPGS aren't even maxed for training camp 12). I can see I have some work to do. Thanks for the advice, @Vinnie Di Maggio and @TajKyH . Do you guys spend much money on this game to get where...

Yep, I see the difference. Thanks for the explanation. I'll get to work and beef up my offense some more. This outpost will have to wait a bit longer.

After continuing to clear outposts that spawn and with 3.5 hours left on my shield, I have now collected 2.8 million wood, 2.0 million stone and 960,000 iron. This puts me at over 80% of the way to finca 17, based on my stone balance. I now have enough spawns on my map to force the shield into...

I am level 41. I will be prepping diegos on the side with battle energy talents, since I see this will be more important going forward. Now that I look at my numbers, I would say I have taken a balanced approach, due to the fact that I have 3 builders.

Thanks for taking the time to help. I use 4 diegos with a total of 100% missile damage and the fused talents are all squad health for Gordos and squad damage for RPGs. I have taken a very offensive approach to this game, however I have 3 builders working nearly 24/7, so my troops are behind...

I updated the original post with this information.

I do that so often and it makes me mad every time i do it.

Rushing with 4 squads of Gordos sure didn't work, either. Quick death lol.

I still have a couple of REALLY HARD outposts left (your help would be appreciated here: http://ftxgames.com/forums/threads/outpost-help-3-rocket-launchers-and-a-nerve-gas-cannon.10963/) and one special mission outpost to clear but I am now at 2.1 million wood, 1.5 million stone and 670,000...
