    pull back q

    Don't send until tomorrow if your only 3 hours away. My first wave of troops coming from the outpost will not arrive until 11:15 EST tomorrow morning. I'm launching my southern troops at 10am. We also need the time to maximise crop and wall level so I don't want a strain on Dawgs resources yet.

    300 scouts will do the trick. Send off any available wheat cheap troops but hold off on the calvary troops as they cannot be afforded.

    I see it's too late. You mind if I send them back? If you can't dispatch them back tomorrow morning, then we'll leave them there.

    OK... as soon as the prats arrive, send them back. I probably be in bed when they get there. The scouts can stay...

    I can send them back tomorrow. I'll see if Broady can set you as a sitter, TBonz.

    Hold on Duchess the best you can. Currently we're reinforcing R-Dawg to give an attacker a bloody nose. If we need to when we're done there, we'll see about giving your attackers the same.

    Q, I've launched my reins. If you can still send those spearmen, please do. :)

    That would be good. Only if you are OK to lose them, think the guy this morning thought I would have nothing. Thanks to Technocrat, lvl 20 wall, and the 800 I had....kicked his a......he may just come back :(

    Oh and my defence points went from 2 (hang my head in shame) to over 6928 woo

    Duchess;)

    Any chance you could send some wheat with them to coincide with their arrival.

    Enough to feed them for a while. :)
    She's rebuilding her wheat field that got destroyed and upping the Granary level as fast as she can to accept any donated wheat.

    Don't worry about the wheat, should be enough for the moment. Your troops 10 hrs away, enough time to get some more wheat.

    Thanks again :)

    I can send 10500 wheat (it'll be my first Alliance Contribution too!). 2.5 hours away. Just let me know!


    Lambo!

    careful with that, unless you have troops in their village, then sending over an hour's worth of resources to a bigger player than you is against the rules, and for someone smaller than you, the limit is 3 times the hourly limit.
    and for wheat, the hourly limit is the total amount created, including the stuff automatically eaten by buildings/troops.

    if you have troops stationed there, there's practically no limit.

    and on that note, i have 1000 troops, but they'd take 18 hours to get there (the closest unused defensive troops of my villages)
    i'll send them if you want them.

    (and plenty wheat)

    Oops! I knew that too! Rush of blood to the head!

    Just to clarify, it's the TOTAL production BEFORE deductions?

    And it's per resource? so if I'm making 4000 each of clay, wood and iron, I can't send 12000 Clay say?


    Sorry to ask, I'm new!

    Duchess was attacked at midnight last night by one MyTh¦K person closeby who we thought she had a previous "understanding" with (an IGM from Welshlass78 saying "it was only a scout, so no harm done" its complicated but is based on the love of chocolate :) ).
    She got nothing except a scout for her trouble.

    Second attack this morning from another MyTh¦K person the otherside, just off the 7x7. This second person didn't scout, just came in with the catas.
    I think they must have worked together, assuming Duchess had nothing in camp to surprise them.

    I think they'll be back later....So if you fancy committing some troops to certain suicide feel free to send what you can afford to loose.

    Alternativley, we pump as many troops into the village that she can support and give them a day to remember.

    Duchess is under no illusion that her time in Marpesia is limited due to the sheer number of MyTh people closeby. (she's already moved her capital to the Outpost and progressing nicely)

    Views and suggestions welcome

    yeah

    no.
    you can send 4000 clay, 4000 iron, 4000 wood.
    no substitute.

    and it's for all your villages combined i think, so say you produce 10,000 of each per hour over all your villages, i think you can send all that from the one village.

    i see now, they maybe want to take the village.
    welshlass had sent the clearing wave, and s--something-- went in with the catapult wave.
    i say that sending troops sounds more fun, expect my praetorians in 18 hours :p

    and the hero will join in, for fun

    I can have 1500 spears and 500 paladins there in 3 hours. Shall I send them?

    EDIT: Just checked and it takes half that time for my merchants to get there. I can definitely help support the troops at least.
