I've got some Teuton player that keeps raiding my farms wtih his club swingers. I took out 15 of them and lost 5 of my troops, be he completely rebuilt by the time I woke up. So, since it looks like he is dedicated to just clubswingers... (he spent like.... 4000 resources last night rebuilding) I'm just gonna get some calavary. BTW... if anyone is bored..

bennie`s village 65 (56|-47)

366 / 599 / 1495 / 827 Resources when I last checked...

And he had 15 clubswingers
 
Noob question - At the moment my cranny says it can hold xxx units.

Is this xxx units of each resource, or xxx units in total?

Thanks. :)
 
XXX of each.

@ azuremen, I'd love to wipe his village off the map, but it's an 17 hour return trip for me, raid him when he raids you. His population is quite low and he doesn't appear to have other troops. If you have Thunders send them, they'll finish him off pretty quick.

Clubbies are pretty good raiders, but notoriously bad defenders especially against cavalry.






Paragon, please visit this thread and check your IGMS.

I'm just gonna develop my resources for the next day, then upgrade my cranny, and develop thunders. The research is kinda spendy on them. And he isn't attacking me. So its not an immediate threat, its just he is makign it so I get less from other villages in the area.
 
For crannies it's xxx of each!? Hell, I wish I knew that earlier. So lemme get this straight...
"Current hidden resources: 2000 units" means that I have 2000 of each resource hidden?
 
Edit - I don't think I'm going to make it to the meeting tonight... I'm heading over to my dad's for supper in a few minutes here.


Edit - That was supposed to be an edit to my last post. :dunce:

Wow .. I thought it was total as well. Thats a handy piece of info right there.

Hey Dave .. any way you (or anyone else) can sit for me Thursday, Friday, and maybe part of Saturday? I'm moving into my apartment and might not have internet access for a few days.
 
I can do Thursday and Friday, weekends are notoriously bad for me though. So you might want to ask someone else to do Saturday, it's always a good idea to get 2 sitters when you can anyways.
 
when you send a scout to a village as reinforcement, can you constantly see what's going on in the village?
 
No. Go one more screen in. That's where you decide what to scout for. If you send as reinforcement, you'll get no scout report, and don't forget to recall you scout if you do that. Either of the two attacks will give you the option of what to scout for. The scout goes to the village, and may or may not return with intel. They do not "camp out" and give up-to-date information.
 
I've been a-thinking.

I've hit upon something I like to call "pharming" (see what I did there? Good, isn't it?).

An army requires lots of crop production to get by. To supply them, you need to level up your crop fields. However, if you send your troops as reinforcements, they leech the crops off whoever they're sent to. So, if you send them to a low-population farming site as reinforcements, they will take their crops from that site as they need them (I'm not sure what happens if their requirements take the village into minus production and the village's stock goes below 0 - perhaps they die out?).

So, you don't need to supply your troops - someone else can do it. If anyone scouts the village as a farming site, they'll find a HUGE army.

Good plan?
 
Unless said person sees a low population village and attacks without scouting. And if crop production is negative, troops either leave or die (I'm not sure which, but it doesn't matter) when the crops are gone.
 
They'll be in for a surprise then, as they encounter 400 swordfighters having a picnic...
 
Hmmm intresting. On the crop thing how about spreading your army over farms?

You would have to find quite a large town to host them without losing troops because your "host" can't feed them. though. Perhaps you can rent stormbringer village at night? :P

Nice army btw.

Short term only. As TB said, crop problem. And other players :)
My biggest loss of army in .com was on my usual farm, that someone overnight picked as a point to station his army. I lost half of mine then. Now I use superior force :P. And scouts, sometimes....:)
 
BTW, Evo and Chris, I really need you guys to help me on building up my 2nd village, sitting-wise.

I'll be sleeping and working all day tomorrow and friday, I need you two to sit me.
