    That's a LONG trek for anyone other than old powerbase and outpost folk.

    Keebler... I see you didn't take the village. Do you want me to weaken it with my chief? It's a 50 minute trip.

    I have no idea if your sending multiple waves or not.

    Yeah, weaken it plenty if you want. My Flint senators aren't making the trip... it's just my Beachhead senator, plinking away... slowly...

    Cool... so when should I stop? When it's reaches 30?

    That's probably a good idea. I'll do two trips if needed.

    25 minutes until the next wave hits White Tower.

    20 minutes until Black Tower gets hit and reduced for its overtaking... As soon as you have White Tower, I will hit Black Tower.

    Just to chime in but if any repercussions arise, I've got my 5.5k lvl20 defensive troops sitting at Boobsville doing nothing.

    Yeah, if I can help in any way don't hesitate to ask :D I've done next to nothing useful so far :(

    The Black Tower still stands but just barely... Level 2 palace... All troops dead. As soon as The White Tower falls, The Black Tower is next. Later today, I hope.

    LOL,
    I've been doing Sim City for the past few weeks up at the outpost just building a defensive enclave. The only "action" I've seen is when sitting for Duchess.

    Village numero 6 is definately going to be more Southern.

    I've got noone nearby that I can wage war on... I think. Cuz they're all pretty much the same size as me or bigger, I could try attacking but I'm not sure how far I'd make it- although my resources are pretty high...

    Keebler... send your Senator. Last wave launched. ETA - 48 minutes. The White Tower is at 48% and this wave should take it enough to take it with one attack by your Senator.

    Black Tower will be cleared in 45 minutes and ready for my Chief in 2 hrs. Black Tower will be mine tonight. :D

    I've got some troops at the outpost if you guys need any support:

    Troops:
    150 Phalanxes
    100 Swordsmen
    100 Pathfinders
    25 Theutates Thunders
    300 Druidriders
    50 Haeduans
    20 Trebuchets

    Weak, I know but Solstice has been focusing on building upgrades.

    Harudath, specialize! :p Pick a unit and love and nurture it, don't do a little bit of everything ;)

    Senator ETA 5hrs

    Nonsense. There's a valid reason for all of those troops. At least I have one. Phalanxes and Druidriders are obviously defensive but once in awhile you need the Swordsman and Theutates Thunders to raid some village. Haeduans are the all-stars of the Gauls. They defend and attack like it's no tomorrow. Catapults are just fun.

    I'm not talking about "valid reasons" I'm talking about "sound strategy". Spreading them out like that is not good strategy.


    Q, UMM.... where did all those phalanx appear from in White Tower do ya think? :wtf: Is the wall not down?
  • LincLinc Owner Detroit Icrontian
    edited April 2008
    I'm going to guess it was a long troop withdrawal from somewhere else?

    Oh well. I'm sending Imperians from Wild Bill to clear the rest out. Sorry 'bout your chief :-/ Looks like I'll need to make another run from Beachhead late tonight.

    Yeah... I figured 1100 mace would have been enough. I left the wall since there were no troops. Less for you to rebuild.

    Well... time to re-train my chief. :( Attack on Black Tower commencing...

    I have specialised, just not at Solstice :tongue: Solstice's druid riders are level 11 and Haven's are level 16/17 now. I am going defensive but sometimes when I need extra resources I need to ... borrow some from my neighbours :tongue:

    Looking at his buildings in the village I just took, I will say this: Fal Dara was an idiot. :p

    Agreed.... I have some major fixing to do but at least the resources are there to do the fixing.

    Buildings are not organized well, levels are messed up on buildings... He could have been attacked with cats and done some of this.... :scratch:

    A level 9 stable, level 2 barracks, blacksmith but no armoury, level 9 rally for no reason, level 19 academy but no troops types are researched... wtf.

    The way the buildings are grouped makes me suspect there was not a catapult attack... they are all together, no gaps. Also, fields are equally upgraded. This is just the work of a dumb player.

    prerequisite for stable is level 5 academy, level 3 blacksmith, and you need a level 3 barracks for the academy, so there's been at least one catapult attack.

    That or he thought it was funny to delete his own buildings while wagging his tail and wondering what kind of chew toy he likes best :skeptic:

    that part is the non-stupid part, the rest of it is lacking in any forms of sense.
