4. What is a Clan?
Clans are groups of players that pool their trophies in order to compete
with other clans in a battle to collect the most trophies and to win a Clan
War in order to gain the most loot. Members of clans have a private chat
for socializing with each other, and are able to donate troops to each other.
Within a clan there are four ranks: member, elder, co-leader and
leader. Including the leader, you can have up to 50 players (of any rank) in a
clan.
5. Joining a Clan
To be a member of a clan you must first repair your Clan Castle. To do this
will cost you 40,000 gold. Once your Clan Castle has been repaired you
have the option of joining a clan.Clan Castle Level 1

There are various ways to join a clan. Below are some examples:
View a clan that has the status 'anyone can join' and tap the 'join' button.
Send a request to join a clan that has the status 'invite only'.
Go on global chat and watch for people recruiting members to join their
clan.
Note that some clans have a minimum trophy requirement to join their
clan; you cannot join, nor send a request to join, if you do not meet the
trophy requirement (you can, however, be invited and accept the invite).
The requirement is set by the clan leader and can vary from from 0 to
3600.
6. Leader
Clan leaders are the ones who have the big responsibility of
managing their clan. In order to create a brand-new clan, it costs an
additional 40,000 gold, whereupon the player will immediately
become the first member and leader of the new clan. The leader has
the administrative authority to invite players to join their clan,
accept or decline requests to join, and promote/demote members
to and from eldership or co-leader. The Leader can kick out co-leaders,
elders, and members.
Additionally, a clan leader has the ability to demote themselves and
promote another player to leader. This move is generally only made
in particular circumstances and should be exercised with extreme
caution, as once another member is made leader the former leader
no longer holds the same administrative powers. Typically a clan
leader should only do this if the person
7. promoted was entirely trusted. If the clan leader leaves
without promoting someone else to leader, the highest-ranked
(by trophy count) co-leader will automatically become leader.
If there are no co-leaders, the highest-ranked elder will take
the position, and if there are no elders the highest-ranked
normal member in the clan will automatically become leader.
If the leader is the only one in the clan when he leaves, the
clan will be dissolved.
The main difference between the clan leader and an co-leader
is that only the leader has the authority to bestow (and
withdraw) the title of co-leader on another player. Don't give
away free leader to anyone, as this will result in your clan
being ruined and you have no control over it.
8. Co-Leader
Co-leader is the title for a clan member that has earned the utmost trust of
the clan leader. The co-leader has the administrative authority to invite and
accept join requests from players, promote and demote clan elders, and
can also edit the clan information (Symbol, Description, Type, Required
trophies).
Clan Co-leaders may now send messages to the whole clan. You may type
128 characters. However there is a 12 hour recharge period after sending a
message so consider carefully what you are going to send. The message
will be sent to all clan members and viewed in their inbox. The message
remains in the inbox after being viewed and it is yet to be seen they will be
deleted.
When starting your own clan a player should be very wary of who they
promote to be a co-leader because of their ability to kick out clan members
and promote players to eldership. Players should always choose their co-leaders
wisely. Do not advertise your clan by giving away free co-leader.
9. Elder The Elder has more responsibilities than a Member but less than a Co-
Leader or Leader.
Elders can:
Invite players to join the clan
Accept players to the clan
Kick out clan Members
