    Saracen seems to think that I might be silkesvarten's next target, and I don't have a reason not to believe him. I was wondering if anyone could perhaps lend me a few troops just to protect my main village (Junia) long enough to get my other villages to be self sufficient..which I imagine should take maybe not even until the next weekend. I don't want this to turn into some kind of war like what sidekicksol just went through, I just want to survive long enough to get my other villages self sufficient. That is..even if this guy wants to attack and/or wipe me out.
    I make about 1k wheat an hour, but I have plenty of room to upgrade that to support some troops. Let me know and thanks :)

    If I remember correctly silkesvarten hit AT yesterday with 17,000 troops. Is it really a worthwhile exercise trying to put up any sort of defence against him ?
    When he levelled me, his 30 wave attack comprised of multiple troop, ram and catas.
    Personaly, I think it would be a lost cause trying to mount any defence as you will only antagonise him and it will probably result in total destruction later.

    and just to rub salt into my wounds he's back with a 15 wave attack on Saracen1......
    By 14:02 it will be rubble again !

    He's bringing catapults... sorry. :( This may as well be a sign that that village is a gonner. He's been saving for quite a while so expect several thousand (maybe as high as 5k). I expect he'll launch more attack wave from the local villages as the attack time approaches. I would think he'd send one wave from each village to arrive several minutes before the main attack arrives. Probably to ram your wall and try to wipe out the troops. So... 4 or 5 waves minimum. I cannot fathom how this could be pushed back without, like, 10,000 defensive troops. I'll have 2,000 spearmen and 500 Paladins by then but you'll need a ton more than that.

    You're call Sidekick... can you have your settlers sent by then? If so, I'd call the city a gonner and move. Of course, I WOULD distroy all buildings before letting him take it... :)

    Geckoboy from Myth k is trying to level Pots2. I messaged him but he hasn't replied and am pretty sure he plans on coming back for more. If you can spare some defensive troops, that would be wonderful.

    Pots2 is a 9-cropper, so we don't want to lose it.

    Edit - Lost about a thousand troops but I since have reinforced with below and more are coming in.

    190 - Legionnaires
    587 - Praetorians
    4 - Equites Caesaris

    I got 150 legionnaires and 150 pretorains but it'll take 16 hours to get there.
    If you think its worth it I'll send now

    Thanks for the offer Saracen. Gecko will either level the village or we'll come to an understanding in the time it would take for them to arrive. Otherwise, it's good to know you can be counted on to help if I need it. :)

    I'm at least 2 hrs away and 6 hrs away. But with those two, I can field 3k of spearmen and 500 paladins. Can you hold that long?
  • TBonZTBonZ Ottawa, ON Icrontian
    edited March 2008
    I think so Q, that would be a great help. Hopefully in the meantime I can get some dialog going with this guy.

    I think 3 thousand spearmen and 500 paladins would shock him. THIS time my hero is coming for a little tussle. He missed the "Last Stand Of Darnasass". That was some good kill'n. I'll send the one now and send the other to arrive at the same time. Expect 3500 troops in 6:45 hrs. :rarr:
  • TBonZTBonZ Ottawa, ON Icrontian

    Awesome, I have another 1000 there now and more are coming in.

    You're right, he will be shocked. :D

    Also, checked his profile and he seems to be a decent guy. He says 9/10 times, if you ask nicely to stop, he will. On the other hand, if he's coming for the 9 cropper, that's another story altogether.

    Yep... As we found with sidekicksol, we can make it a hard village to swallow but if a big guy REALLY wants a village away from out outpost or powerbase, we can only prolong the issue. Hopefully we sting him enough to lay off. HOPEFULLY. I can only rebuild my arm so many times before I become a victim of an incursion out in the boonies.

    What I replied to Potsy with:
    1000 Praetorian (lvl13)
    700 Legionnaire (lvl8)
    500 Imperians (lvl10)
    250 Eq. Imp. (lvl6)

    Inbound.
    3 hours, 52 minutes. Do need wall. Resources?

    Thanks Keebs!

    His wall is being built up. Currently at lvl 6. May need wheat shipments in a few hours...will let you know.

    I hear you Q. Hopefully this can be solved diplomaticaly.

    You sent back my best defensive troops? They are sad... :(

    so, what does Potys2 have garrisoned for her protection?

    I had to, my wheat wasn't able to provide and I cannot pull a sidekick tonight.

    In total there were:

    2900 Spearman
    1250 Paladin
    665 Knight
    1000 Axeman
    1690 Legion
    1724 Praetorians
    500 Imperian
    250 Imperatoris
    90 Legati
    1 Hero

    =10,700 Troops

    This is what remains:

    1690 Legion
    1724 Praetorians
    2900 Spearman
    90 Legati
    1 Hero

    EDIT - Plus I still have 354 Troops en route from TF2.

    Still running a deficit with this, but should be caught up by tomorrow. If I need those troops again, I'll ask when I'll be in a much better position to feed them all. Also, geckoboy read my IGM but hasn't replied. Hopefully he's just moved on to a weaker player. Afterall, he attacked Potsy this morning and there wasn't a single troop and took all his resource, but, when he came back, I took him for almost 700,000, with troops reinforced by TF1. Don't think he quite planned on that one.

    But yeah, you guys rocked for coming to Pot's aid, thank you. :)

    I've got 1000 lvl10 Praetorians ready for defense. They need 1000 wheat per hour.

    This game is pissing me off. I'm trying to build up resources, now one of those Myth *******s is coming to destroy me. I have no troops or resources. How the hell are we supposed to survive if level eleventybillion troops come kick my level 5 ass?
