CRANNY UP
Build 3 to 4 level 10 crannies.
DO NOT DEFEND WITH YOUR ARMY.
Send your army away when you are going to be away. If you are going to sleep for 8 hours then find a low population target 4 hours away so you can send your army out again when you wake back up. Never let them stay at your village if possible.
BUILD RESOURCES EVENLY
If you only build one resource space and it get's hit by catas you can be set far back. If you build resources evenly you should be able to recoup faster.
Aside from logging in more often that should hopefully help you. Also post in the private board in the future.
