Opinons on optimal troop counts per city
I have 9 citys total. All have barracks. My holding city's have roughly 12. And my War city's have 18-20. My question is this. How many troops should I have of each time per city for optimal colonizing, raiding, and defense.
In each city I'm aiming for this goal. I'm looking for feed back based off my idea with all the above concept I just mentioned in mind.
10k workers (for misc back and forth research swapping)
250k warrior (clearing traps and wall defenses etc)
100k scouts (scouting and anti scout)
100k pikeman (defensive + rainbow)
100k swordsman (defense + rainbow)
250k archers (rainbow+main assault+defense)
100k calvary (rainbow+assault+fast raiding and reinforcements)
100k cataphract (same as above)
18k ballista (9 waves of constant npc farming with 2k cats with overkill)
8k transport (transport the 9 constant wavs of cat runs).
The idea behind this being minus the ballista and transport I have exactly 1 mil troops since rally point is 100k waves without items this would allow me to send a 100k scout and when that returns send 900k troops at someone per city effectively allowing me to almost guaranteed against all but the top players colonize 9 players per day minimum. One hero (politics hero) would stay at home to increase production at all times.
And the ballista and transports are there for farming in between colonization and also if you take a day or 2 off to rebuild the army's numbers back to the original spot so you don't have any down time. Basically I would do this same thing in each city and it would prove to be a wicked offensive as well as a great defense.
