Intro: The problem I see a lot of times is that many players do not spend money on this game, do not have Historic Heroes, and quite frankly don't have the super heroes that many guides, say to have. It is just out of their capabilites. This guide will give you ways to take a Historic City from attack levels from 200-500. That way, everyone is happy.
This theory ONLY works for the troop combination: Cavalry/Swordsmen or Pikeman/Battering Rams.
Attacking w/ 200 Attack hero(at least 100 leadership)
Preparation: Before you attack a lv 12, you must first prepare a bit.
You will also need to have a War Horn applied. Penicillin will gave you 3% of your troops back. Don't waste a corsolet on these attacks. They have minimal effects.
First your going to need to have at least 7 200 attack heroes with 100+ leadership. Anything less, and this method won't work.
Your also going to need 1 city 1 mile away from the Historical in question(loyalty spamming city).
And 1 city relatively close to the Historical City in question(spearhead city).
Obviously, you will need an open city slot.
Spam waves- 3k Warriors. If you have some extra cities that you can send from, send small short waves of 3k warriors that will help take down t/a/d.
Wave 1: 100k Warriors. This wave will clear ~10k Cavs, which is necessary with a low attack hero.
Wave 2: 94k Archers, 3k Pikemen, 3k Swordsmen. Clears Cavs, Archers, and ~25k Swordsmen.
Wave 3: 94k Archers, 2k Pikemen, 2k Swordsmen, 2k Warriors. Clears 80k Swords.
Wave 4: 94k Archers, 2k Pikemen, 2k Swordsmen, 2k Warriors. Clears remaining Swordsmen and 85k Warriors

Wave 6: 96k Archers, 2k Pikemen, 2k Swordsmen. Clears 325k Warriors.
Wave 7: 98k Archers, 2k Warriors. Clears remaining troops/fortifications
Loyalty waves: Space all your attacks with 30s between each wave. This way, you will have a wave hitting every 30s. Your waves should look like this: 15k Archers/30k Warriors. Make sure you send 10 at a time. Also, switch all your heroes to Wiseman set for their gear, and make Mount level 0 to avoid confusion. By the 40-50th wave set, you will have captured your lv 12 HURAH!

You will also need to have a War Horn applied. Penicillin will gave you 3% of your troops back. Don't waste a corsolet on these attacks. They have minimal effects. Obviously, you will need an open city slot. Only use this method if you already have a lvl 12 conquered.

Spamming Waves: 5k Warriors. You'll need at least 30 of these. This is a very important step because you don't want to cut down Ballistae losses as much as possible, and DTs will hurt your Ballistae pretty bad.
Wave 1: 121k Archers, 1.25k Swords, Pikes, Warriors. This will clear Cavs, Archers, and ~90k Swordsmen.
Wave 2: 120k Ballistae, 1.25k Workers, warriors, Pikes, Swords, and Rams.
Note: I am not responsible for your failures at attempting to take a lv 12. Please do not send me angry PMs about your failures. I did not make the game.
OR BASICALLY THIS IS WHAT THE ABOVE SAYS LOL.
I PERSONALLY USE THIS METHOD SO LISTEN GOOD, THIS WILL BASICALLY BREAK A 12 FOR ANYONE WITH A 225 ATTACK OR HIGHER HERO
23:59:45 to 23:59:59 warrior spam waves for traps
00:00:00 to 00:00:05 (2) 125k pike waves

*note swords take more mixed arch waves
