How to unlock the Tag Collector III achievement in Battle Islands - Definitive Guide
To get This Achievment you need to get the rank of 2500 DogTags. When starting the game your rank is at 1000.
You get around 8 to 14 DogTags by a 100% win against another player. Don't need to explain a tactic here just do what you think is best to win.
During the match you will receive stars for the following conditions:
First star for destroying the enemies HQ
Second star for destroying more than 50% of the enemies base
Third star for destroying 100% of the enemies base
The more stars you have the more DogTags you'll earn. As I said, you can get 8-14 DogTags per match, which will depend on your and your enemies current player level.
Important note: If you're not able to get even one star during the match and all your troops are dead or the time's up, the match ends and you will lose several DogTags.
As before, the number of Dog Tags you lose depends on your and your enemies current player level. To not lose your DogTags I advise you to keep one unit in the stock during the match (I used a Plain, cause I never used them in the battle). If you foresee that you have no chance winning the game with at least one star, hit the guide button before your units are dead (can't happen since one unit's still in the stock) or the time's up, then quit the game. After restarting the game everything's just like before you started the battle so you have another chance to maximize your DogTag rank.

MAJORPOOPY the problem is when you hit 2000 the units take longer to attack meaning you can't do it in big chunks

***Since the last update this is not working but...***
Alliance warfare is up and no good news for boosting sessions. Alliance wars don't give tags, only resources.
Hi,
This will help going after Tags by finding easier targets. I found a way to go after lower level targets possible and that will help you get at least to 2000 Tags very fast. After that point you will need a more careful digging to find targets, but still possible as I unlocked the achievement while my command bunker at level 6.
*** IMPORTANT***
When you get to 2000+ tags you will have to fight people of higher levels. You will get a lot of money for upgrades. But don't neglect building your defenses as you will also be targeted by high level players. So if you have your storage full don't attack another player until you spend your money. You will need it to upgrade. I bought the 3rd engineer (500 gold) to make upgrades faster. This is my defense setup (I actually unlocked the achievement when I got back and found 28 extra tags from defenses):
Now for the Tags. I found that by going to battle I was only finding people with higher levels than me with some only a few levels lower. Then I decided to check if Alliances were any helpful. And in fact I found they are.
To find your low level target:
1 - Press and the select "Alliance"
2 - Select "Leaderboard"
3 - Scroll down to find a good alliance to go after, the lower the score easier to find a good target
4 - Press to see people inside the alliance
5 - Scroll down to find someone with a low level, I recommend level 2, 3 and 4 until you get to 2000 tags. Then find the lowest possible.
6 - The person should be available to fight, there will be an option to press and start the attack
7 - if you don't like what you see you have a few seconds before the battle start to press and retreat without being penalized
8 - Low levels are pretty defenseless, use only a few troops to get 100%
9 - Rebuild your army, and while it rebuilds you can search for another target. You probably still have enough troops to make an easy 100% again
10 - If you keep attacking only low levels you will probably have your army rebuilt very fast.
11 - Just keep the flow.
Please comment to improve the solution as I find it'll really help getting this
(only problem is that if many people use it it will be more difficult to find targets, but I believe there are sufficient out there)

I'm in your video (briefly). :)

This is what I've been doing too. Was going to post this strategy but it seems you've beaten me to it. This is the easiest (if not the quickest) way to do this that I've found.

Every time you win an attack on someone, you acquire dog tags. The lowest amount is usually around 7, with a full 100% win getting you around 14. As such, getting to 2500 is ridiculously long and arduous. Getting a boosting partner is much easier, which I have outlined in the walkthrough above. The achievement is cumulative though, so if you gain 400 tags and then lose 100, you still count as gaining 400 overall. You don't need 2500 at one time.
