I would like to introduce to you the method of rankjumps.

Instead of increasing all ranks equally at the same time, you can use the method of rankjumps to surprise competitors and make sure they won't respond in time to take back your rank.

This is how it works:

First have a look which of your ranks is the most neglected. Let's assume your ranks in strike, defense, covert and assassin is #20 #7 #4 #8.
The rank which is the worst is usually the easiest to upgrade. If you have rank 4 in covert than by doubling in covert you might end up rank 2 (2 ranks improvement), but if you double strike, you might end up with rabnk 10 (10 ranks improvement). The worse one of your ranks compared to others is, the more efficient the rankjump strategy.

Strike action and defense action are more costly to upgrade than covert and assassin action.
You start by building weapons for a couple days, without training soldiers.
After a couple days, you have maybe 30.000 or 40.000 more weapons than soldiers
At this point your rank will still be 20 (or worse).
Now you invest all kuwal into training soldiers to have one for each weapon.
Within a day or two you will increase your strike a lot and end up with a much better rank.
Your global rank will increase together with strike rank in a very short time.

Why is this better than increasing it gradually?
If you increase your strike gradually, together with all other ranks at the same time, a competitor who falls in a rank will spy on you and when seeing he is just a little bit weaker than you, he will devote more resources to catch up in the required category. If you however use the jumprank strategy, then some players, if they see that your strike is much higher than them, might simply give up on catching up with you, and concentrate on other categories instead.

At the same time the jumprank strategy is a good way to surprise someone. Especially usefull if used towards the end of the game. If you use the jumprank strategy, you let other players grow in rank faster so that they get used to their high rank and maybe will devote resources where it's not useful, for example to boost a stat to be rank 1 somewhere. In the meanwhile, you prepare to boost the rank that is the most neglected, where you can gain the highest rank improvement. You could be also raiding untrained for a couple days, and saving up kuwal, to then train them all fast and get an advantage which will fully develop before round/month ends. The competitor will not be able to respond in time if the strategy is executed at the right time.
