how to insta-conquer?

how many troops does it take to insta-conquer an npc 10?

Do you mean a successful raid, or to own it as a new city?

I've never heard of anyone winning an NPC 10 (or anything else) with one attack. You have to get the loyalty down to 0 first, and that takes many attack waves to accomplish.

You can successfully raid it with just one attack wave (getting all the plunder inside) - but you don't get to take it over like that.

There are all different configurations of rainbow waves people use to hit an npc 10. At the barest minimum you need 90k archers, 2k each bals and transpos, and a good mix of the rest - plus a hero with an atk of 100 or better, and the right levels of archery and horseback riding.

Even with that, you may win, but you are likely to take heavy losses. The higher your hero's atk level, the lower your losses will be.

If you are missing any of those things, don't even try yet. Stick with npc 5's until you are ready.

how many troops and waves it will require idk

but

DCJerboa is probably the one person who would know this, he is very good in timing his attacks to insta-conquer lower lvl npc's and has probably some recipe stored away for lvl 10s.

i was refferring to successfully taking it over with 30-45 atks in a matter of seconds......vishu do tell

[xMusashix]

well... you have to have a few cities 1mile away and a bunch of cav... not too hard to do...

The npc is about 100-200miles from my cities

If you have the troops to do it in your other cities, use camp time. Send your main wave to hit first, then using camp time in your other cities make all the waves land within 1 min of your main. You just have to work on the timing. Depending on the waves you are sending you can do in as few as 31-33. It don't rember the exact number.

Depends on what you want to send and what you have, the first wave after your main hit should be around 30k archer and 30k warr. Followed by close to the same. Then all the other waves should have around 20k warriors. You will have to do the math.

not saying this couldnt be done, just would be really costly to replace them.

I agree with the last post,
Lemme just explain a bit widely...
1. Spearhead (Ur normal npc 10 farming wave)
Now here's what is different, u are trying to conquer a npc 100-200 miles away u say, now that'd be ummm.... a little, out of hand, archers take about 1 hr right? Well in that case, the above post is right, time ur attacks from different cities cuz of the distance....

i was refferring to successfully taking it over with 30-45 atks in a matter of seconds......vishu do tell

Seconds? ummm i can't help u with capturing a lvl 10 in seconds, even the closest (1 mile) npc takes about 30 mins for me to capture, some ppl say 2 hrs, major losses, dont believe em...

Well first make up ur mind, tell me the right distance and the wherabouts of ur cities, so it can be timed....

Where is DC btw? It's unusual why i dont see him in such a circumstance!
