This low level Snake castle is most frequently found in new worlds but can also be found in older worlds in parishes with an influx of low ranked players.

Setup
For my setup I decided to go with an honor attack setup focusing on using fewer units, most of my setups use 500 total units but for this attack I reduced that number to 300 total which is a more practical number in areas with Snake Castle #1 as such low ranked players often don’t have access to 500 units yet (although you should, pro players max command first).
Result
It turns out I didn’t need the 10 Pikemen in this attack at all as the point of entry was created by an archer, however it’s possible the Pikemen absorbed some of the damage dealt by The Snake’s Keep.
As you can see; Catapults are an overkill for this attack and hard to come by in new worlds so I excluded them although using one or two properly placed catapults would have reduced the battle time, overall I feel such an effect is negligible.
