Yeah, one guy can pretty much not do anything, except for a hero maybe.
- BLINGMW - 05-16-2007
so how many do you send? Should 2 be able to accomplish anything on a tiny undefended town?

...i'm talking about the first low level units you can make iny our barracks.

jeebus. This game might just be too slow for me, I need to kill some people NOW :lol:

I dont know..it def. picks up. I was up way late last night playing, and so was a friend of mine. Troop movements takes up quite a bit of time ;\

on my first raid! wooo! 24 minutes 'til results.
- BLINGMW - 05-16-2007
So what stops me from signing up a bunch of bogus accounts, setting up some empty places for me to raid?
It takes 24 hours to get to Mike.... Mike, how many guys do I need to send to kill all your women and children?

IP logging, account monitoring. People try it, and get banned on a pretty regular basis I think.
- BLINGMW - 05-16-2007
That's good to know, I was wondering how rampant that was.
- Mike - 05-16-2007
so i'm having trouble raiding. i have two dudes, i click a city i want to raid, hit the send button... and nothing happens. a timer starts, but it's freaking counting up!
am i missing something? is the game broken?
- damnit458 - 05-16-2007
Ive been attacked 9 times in less than 24 hours, mostly by people in the MC alliance. Those bastards are going to get it once I get a barracks up. All i need is like 30 more iron, hopefully I wont be raided in the meantime.
- KPWSerpiente - 05-16-2007
Well I guess I'm going to hold off raids until I've got a couple groups of 6 because I'm playing as the Romans. Looks like I won't be raiding until later in the week.

you have to hit "OK" or whaever on the next screen that comes up...you know it's underway when you're looking at your vilalge view and it says "attack in: 22:00" or whatever
- Mike - 05-16-2007
oooooooo! that's totally not obvious.
- BLINGMW - 05-16-2007
I did the same thing too the first few times
"WHY ISN'T HE GOING"?! :x
- Mike - 05-16-2007
raiding is fun!
- HAULN-SS - 05-16-2007
haha..yeah, I agree. I've pretty much been raiding non-stop since this morning. Embassy is being leveled as we speak, so I can start forming that luckily. I have 10 troops, gonna try to get 5 more before the end of the day.
- KPWSerpiente - 05-16-2007
I'm being raided in half an hour. I only have a few troops so I built a cranny and upgraded everything I could so there wouldn't be as many resources sitting around. All I know is that if I don't get hit again by tomorrow I should have a worthwhile force.

defenders are always the losers, by the way, it's like the opposite of real life.
best bet, is if you have some troops, look at their speed, and try to time it so you can get them to leave and come back after the attack is over.
And at night, send them to raid a village 4 hours away, so that they'll get back in the morning for you. If you let them stay in village overnight, and you get attacked, you'll likely get wiped, unless you have a lot of troops..that's what happened to me this morning
- HAULN-SS - 05-16-2007
ok, so, invites just sent out to join the alliance. If you didnt get one, it's because I don't know your name, or your embassy is not built. send me an in game message to get your invite. I may have to level the embassy more before I can let some of you in, first come first serve on that I think.
