Hey there Snowflakes!
It’s beginning to look a lot like MORE Christmas. Raid to the North Pole Phase 3 is now live in our games. This means more Characters/Costumes, Buildings, Decorations, and just a lil bit of snow. 😉
RAID TO THE NORTH POLE ENDS THURSDAY, JANUARY 7TH @3PM PACIFIC

First up, what you will need in order to see the content in Phase 3. You will need to complete The Elf Empire Strikes Back Pt. 9 before you can begin the second phase of the event.
There WILL be another 24hr Timed item in Santa’s Headquarters at the end (there will always be).
Back with more in a bit….

Nutcracker Stewie: 280 Clams. If you do NOT own Stewie already, you will NOT be able to buy this costume. Only Players with Stewie active in their game will be able to purchase the Costume. For those of you that DO have Stewie, go to the North Pole after Escape from the North Pole Pt. 1 triggers to buy him. You will be taken to Al’s to get him for the Clam cost.
FAKE TREE FIELD DISTRICT
You will open this new area during Escape from the North Pole Pt. 1. Just tap on go to be taken to the area and open it. This will be the location of the New Battle Area for Phase 3. You will need the Nutcracker Truck Hangar from Santa’s HQ so you can use the Nutcracker Truck for the Battles here.
Nutcracker Truck will require Missile-Toe to Upgrade.
Missile-Toe: Fake Tree Lot Battles
Nutcracker Truck starts at Level 1
Level 2: Cost 2 Missile-Toe
Nutcracker Truck Drivers: Kevin Swanson, Nutcracker Stewie, Snake Plissken
Fake Tree Battles will cost you 2 Unfiltered Syrups.
Unfiltered Syrups: Kevin Swanson’s Tent OR Joe Sing Christmas Carols OR Jerome Put Up the Tree OR Pine Patrol Tower
Fake Tree Battles take 3hrs to complete.
Fake Tree Battle Payouts: Will vary in amounts for Chestnuts, Snowflake Medals, Missle-Toe

Nutcracker Truck Level 1, 2 Drivers: Destroys 2 Buildings, Payout 2 Chestnut, 2 Snowflake Medal, 2 Missile-Toe
SANTA’S SUPPLY DEPOT
There are now 3 Materials you can use in the Depot to Exchange for Presents. I also had a 4th slot of Exchanges added. The new Material to trade in Phase 3 is Chestnuts.
Chestnuts: Nutcracker Prototype OR Fake Tree Field
SANTA’S HEADQUARTERS
6 more items have been added to the HQ for Phase 3. Five basic ones, and the 6th being a “HARD” 24hr Timed item as usual.
Nutcracker Truck Hangar: 115 Presents (I had to pull it out of Inventory to place it in the North Pole)
Holiday Med Tent: 250 Presents, Earns $60 & 120xp every 6hrs, Chance drop Purple Hearts
Snake Plissken in Pine Tree Bunker: 350 Presents (I had to pull it out of Inventory to place it in the North Pole), Build Time 10secs, Earns $240 & 480xp every 24hrs
Saw Mill: 500 Presents, Earns $20 & 40xp every 2hrs, Chance drop Escape Plans
Affordable Elf Housing: 532 Presents, Earns $140 & 280xp every 14hrs, Always drop Hand Guns
At this point, ANY further tap on Santa’s Headquarters will start the 24 HOUR TIMER on the Christmas Tree Fort, so make sure you are prepared to get all the Presents needed to get it. Or decide to keep them for the Next round and just let it time out and Pass on it. Remember, these are labeled “HARD” for a reason. Many of them are like a Premium Item and will require Clams spent to get them all. Decide if he is really worth it to you before proceeding.
Christmas Tree Fort: 1200 Presents, Chance drop Purple Hearts OR Escape Plans
***in progress***
Still working on some stats and will Update once I have them all in place, but this should at least get you all started for the Phase 3 information.
Where are you in the Event so far? What Characters do you have? What Santa’s HQ items did you unlock? How are your exchanges going in the Supply Depot? Suggestions and/or tips for fellow players? Let us know.

I also, have this issue and was coming to look for help. In Santas Little Helper part 2 you have to defeat Santa’s Village 2 x, but I am level 10 for my hummer. It takes 22 objects to upgrade to the next level. Even with all 3 people I only get 1 or 2 objects. I’ve been trying to upgrade for days. Tinyco just gave me a generic message thanking me for feedback indtead of helping me with what to do. I don’t have clams to use to upgrade faster. Is this just a grind it out and suck it up or is there something else that I am missing? Do I need to finish this quest to progress?

No. In the post I linked to other players… I specifically point out this is an OPTIONAL side questline. Nothing more. No reason to do it if you can’t or do not want to…. so no reason to stress or worry over it. 😉

After playing through several events, I have noticed a few things that tend to slow the overall ability to make progress. In order to help other players that feel like they simply cannot get ahead, I would offer these pieces of advice (especially if you are a free player)…
1. Skip all the “hard” items in the HQ (Lyle, Skynet) – these just gobble up precious Presents that could be used to make progress otherwise. The 900 Presents needed to buy the Skynet Complex would be better spent on getting the first 3 items in Phase 3.
I made this mistake with Slasher Cat, and ended up having a ton of Silver Bullets that never got used. I was always a day or two behind after that, and I am pretty sure that this was the cause.
2. Skip the Weekly Challenges – these usually tend to involve characters that are crucial to making progress, and only serve as a distraction (especially if you are a free player). Plus, the “prizes” on these are merely decos – so they just take up valuable space and earn nothing. I know these are tempting, but ultimately not worth the trouble.
3. Focus on the main questline – not completing this can bring your progress to a grinding halt. Most of the new character/skin questlines tend to remain after the event is over, so skip these for now. They are a strain on limited resources (the same handful of characters that are used over and over for everything), and will only slow you down.
I know that there is usually a lot going on in these events, and things can get pretty hectic – particularly when items are on a timer. Just relax, stay focused on the primary objectives, and progress becomes inevitable…

Is there anyone playing strictly freemium (no prototypes purchased and no clam rushing) that was able to start Week Three content with the launch of it? I spent the time to get Lyle because I thought he was valuable to have for battles and it put me “behind” a couple of days. I just got Sarah and placed Kevin’s tent this morning. I am hoping to start Week Three content this afternoon and start getting presents all over again to get to Snake in the HQ. The dog tags are rough because I would rather Bruce and Bonnie collecting egg nog and cider so I can contest battles.
I see these people who have all these presents stashed and wondering if any are freemiums and have figured out a better mousetrap than the one I built.

I’m freemium and the week 3 content just came up for me just now (meaning I got the page of prizes to show; I had been able to see the district and place the hangar but am still unlocking Kevin so no driver and can’t attack anything there). So I’m a few days behind? (What week is this? What day is this? What’s my name? Where am I? Sorry, deadlines and sleep deprivation….) I got to place Snake’s tent right away because I had several hundred presents saved up.
I just unlocked Sarah yesterday. Still need a few dog tags and one antidepressant for Kevin, plus now everything for Snake. The big problem is trying to get fuel while also getting through the quest line or unlocking people since the same characters have multiple tasks.
Lyle was worth the wait but I have no intention of getting the other last-on-the page timed items. I only had saved up about 600 presents even being a few days past launch of Week 3 anyway and the one for week 2 cost 900 presents. Those are really for premium players past Lyle, I think. They aren’t really useful. Lyle helps with hummer battles and is a character. I didn’t need the drops by the time I got to the one for week 2.

Have Chris, Bruce, Bonnie, and Lois do what they need to do to get more items to send whomever on missions. Don’t waste your time will the hard to get items.

Hi Bunny! (Hope you’re better, by the way!) Question for you (and readers) I currently have 822 presents and time left on my Skynet countdown. I have Sarah Connor but am still working on Kevin – oh, and I can see the new content despite not being past Elf Empire part 7. My question is, do you think I should get Skynet once I hit 900 presents (expected before the timer ends) or let that timer lapse to use these presents on week 3 stuff in Santa’s HQ? Does Skynet seem to be useful after Kevin is earned? Last week I saved for the final/timed first week item instead of using my hoard on week 2 stuff, but I’m not sure that’s the best plan.

If they’re not lying, they’re dumping too much money into this event or cheating. There’s a suprisingly large number of cheaters on here…something I believe the leaderboards only lend themselves too but in the end it only hurts the community. Why is Stewie’s skin 280 clams when a full character (T-600) was less priced? They have to make some kind of money off the event. The cheaters are also giving a false sense as to where everyone is at in the game, as 5 hours in and they’re already through half a week of content. For Bunny I see reason. She’s running the quasi-official blog for this game, and as an ambassador, has certain expectations to be met. Everyone else speeding through the content misses the point of the game. The gameplay itself. Maybe TinyCo wouldn’t have to make things so difficult on the rest of us if those who rush it would clam up (pun intended). Just sayin.

That’s where I am too and I only play freemium. I’m glad I’m not the only one that is behind by a week! Like all their events, this is definitely geared more towards premium players

Santa wasn’t that bad. IIRC he only needed low numbers of 2 common and 1 uncommon drop items that dropped from pretty short tasks.

I had Santa from last year and am still working on unlocking Camo Peter. Not playing as regular as I have in the past. Still at least 2 or 3 times a day, but the pace of this event is going really slow for freemium players. After Halloween and Mobster Events I have given this game a “rest” and am not spending as much time or any more Clams on it.

280 clams for a skin is outrageous! It looks cute, I would pay maybe 100 clams tops – in game feedback time…

I agree with you mark.280 clams for a costume is ridiculous.
LikeLike
Ditto. Maybe if people pass, they’ll be more reasonable and reduce the price.

yeah this is making the game more paymeium than freemium

Having to wait patiently to start phase 3 properly, as if course I sent Peter out in the hovercraft thinking the update would be late 😛 glad to see these battles are only 3 hrs, was getting bored of waiting 6 lol. Got about 800 presents ready to start (skipped skynet) so should be able to start collecting for snake straight away 🙂

I seem stuck, any suggestions or something I have missed? I used clams to beat Santa’s Village for Santa’s Little Helper Pt. 2 and now I have noticed that even with Peter, Lyle, and Santa it says I can destroy 0/3 buildings with NO items to win. So I assume that means I again must level up my Holiday Humma. Problem is the only way to do so is to get Lights which needs winning from Santa’s Village. Which if I were to send characters would result in nothing won. Only way to level up the Holiday Humma at this point is clams. Should I be locked out of being able to continue to win at Santa’s Village or is this something I should write TinyCo about?

Did you try?
Send 1 person and try. Tinyco said that it will always work as if you are destroying 1 building.

Ahh, so that’s why it suddenly said there was a new costume in the buy menu… Doesn’t matter to me though as I’m still in the middle of Phase 2 trying to get stuff for Linda…

Yep, same here. I haven’t been able to play as regularly as usual (I was out of town for a few days) so I’m well behind. Oh well, I’ll get what I get and try to be happy about it. 🙃

Do you know how much the Xmas tree fort is? I had enough presents to purchase all the other prizes but I don’t want to tap on it again in case I don’t have enough presents left to get it. I don’t want the timer to start. Thank you.

Still stuck on Week 1, waiting for Camo Peter’s rations to drop. On holidays too, so been playing regularly. Very disappointing.

If you don’t spend clams in this game you get nowhere, I’m already feeling this event is a daily grind (playing as much as life allows) and I’m not much further along than you.
