Back in 'the old days' of NPC farming, it was still impossible to capture the city of someone who was anywhere near your strength OR was a member of a good alliance because they could put unlimited troops in their city and call on alliance members for help.
A level 9 embassy means you can have between 800k and 900k friendly troops protecting your city who would all fight at once, while the enemy's army had to come in 90k waves.
It has always been impossible to capture any city belonging to someone who didn't view this game as a solo simcity clone.
Now, a defender doesn't need to bother calling on their alliance for help. You can talk about strategy and all that until you are blue in the fingers, but you can not breach my wall defenses in 6 attacks, even if I do not open the gates. If I do, you can't do it in 20.
And if team up with your alliance and get everyone to send five attacks? I will at long last ask for help, and a million archers will be raining down arrows on your armies before they even get in range to fire back.
You can get everyone in your alliance to spend massive amounts of real life money making it so they are attacking in 125k waves and alls it will do is give me honor faster.
Perhaps there was an easy button. Send 500k troops at someone with 20k and win. Wow, what a shocker, people outnumbered 25 to 1 get killed. Now they inversed it, send 500k troops at someone with max Ats and now they don't even have to be online or open their gates to crush you.
There are all kinds of battle reports of 90k ballista getting their rumps handed to them without even getting in range of the walls. If you want to argue that strategy can over come level 10 walls, put your money where your mouth is, talk your alliance into doing it, and post the battle reports.
If you lose less then 10 million troops I will call you the king of Evony and mail you a crown. Until then, stop the BS please. Everyone can easily figure out why a carebear is happy they are invincible. The people who like a challenge and risk however do not like invulnerability.
