Clash of Clan, create your village and destroy the enemy. How to play on Android?

Clash of Clans is a game where we must create, edit and improve our own village, train the troops and use them to face other players. To do this we must collect elixir, gold and black elixir (in addition to gems, but at an additional cost).

Players will earn trophies for each match they are victorious in, which will automatically place them in Bronze, Silver, Gold, Crystal, Master, and Champion leagues. Each player can join a clan and join forces with other players.

The downside of this is that Clash of Clans not available for PC as far as I know, much less for GNU / Linux, so we have to play it using an Android emulator, or failing that, use Android from a USB memory thanks to this project.

How to put Android on USB stick?

Simple, the first thing we do is download version 4.4 of Android from the following link:

• Download Android 4.4 for PC

When we have the iso ready, we put it in a USB memory using the dd command:

$ sudo dd if=android-x86-4.4-RC2.iso of=/dev/sdX

Where sdX we must replace it with our USB device. What remains is to wait for everything to finish passing for the memory and restart the computer by booting as is logical by USB.

How to install Clash of Clans?

Well once we start with Android, we have to follow the usual steps and configure it as if we were on a phone or tablet. Then we go to Settings »Security» and we mark the option to install third-party applications. We configure the WiFi and we go to this url, where we have several links, with several mirrors to download the . Apk of the game.

• Download from Google Play

Single player attack

In the attacks of a player, the user must conquer all the goblin villages one by one, and as a reward resources are obtained.

Multiplayer attack

The attacks multiplayer they are measured in a star system. An attack will be won when at least one star is achieved:

1. When the player destroys the town hall of the opposing village.
2. When the player scores 50% damage in the rival village.
3. When the player destroys 100% of the rival village.

After victory, the player who wins will receive a certain number of trophies depending on the difficulty of the attack.

War of clans

One clan can take on another and win significant loot if it is proclaimed the winner. Each participant of each clan will attack another and if they win the attack they will get stars in favor of their clan. Finally, the clan that gets the most stars will win. The system allows each participating player to only launch 2 offensives at opponents, only being able to attack each player 1 time per player.

Another rule is that only clans with the same number of people can face each other, that is, it is not possible for a clan of 10 people and another of 16 to face each other, because in that case those of 16 would have a total of 12 attacks of advantage ( 2 for each player of the 6 players they would have). If you attack players within the clan war, it will not affect the shield either. In fact, no shield is valid within clan warfare. It should be said that at the end of the war, both clans receive a reward in the form of gold and elixir, which can vary depending on the attacks made successfully.
