Nice one cheers! :D
did the second attack hit within the same minute?
I've captured about 10 heros, all level 10+ and each one has had really bad stats... all 30 or below. Is this typical, or just unlucky?
okay frist off a lvl 10 NPC doesn't have everything it doesn't have a warehouse so no matter what you an't Max out your academy w/o using an MS on a warehouse.
second of all whats the big deal everyone ha there own priorities, personally i'm not botherd about MS there aint much diffrence between lvl 9s an 10s if i want lvl 10s i'll just go take a lvl 10 barb city over. It's alot more rewarding than hunting for MS.
Thirdly, lvl 10 Feasting hall is pointless, 9 is just as good and seriously when do you ever use more than 8 heros at once when attacking NPCs?
Rally point is a watse in some ways as you might as well take a lvl 10 npc.
Town hall is essential at first because of General rank and the etra vally and resource fields.
Walls not so esential lvl 9 walls do the job just as good.
Catapults are good for NPC plunders as they require less but the take more time to get there. Other wise a big waste.
lvl 10 inn is usless lvl 2 i find gives the best heros
lvl 10 farm etc might as well take a lvl 10 NPC
same with Academy.
Personally the next MS i get is going on a warehouse so i an ompleat my academy, because all 10s and 1 9 is annoying me.
so to be honest once you have a lvl 10 NPC your top priority for your MS should be stockpile as its the only thing you 100% need to max out.

Go their its a fun game for the tips i will tell u their. :)
so basically if ur alrdy a general and not trying to fullfill ur OCD, MS should go to rally pts and walls
Shameless.
I've been doing testing and have posted my last results here.

I'm working on a lvl7 now.
he didnt even try
i thought mods filter links now
I'm just doing up this as three part email to send to my alliance. It gives the basics of how heroes work. I just wanted to run it by a few long term players please feel free to comment or critique as long as it's constructive.
Hero Guide Part 1
Heros are an extremely important part of the game, however, there a certian amount of luck involved so you have to check your Inn often in order to get lucky. Here's how Heros work as far as I can tell.
Choosing a Hero:
First of all you need Heros to take troops in to battle so it's a good idea to make your Feasting Hall one level bigger than your Ralley Point so you can maximize you rally point slots. Second of all upgrading your Inn, to say level 3 is also good, so you can have a bigger pick of the litter. When you pick a Hero look for low level and high attributes. A hero that has any particular attribute (Intelligence, Politics, or Attack) more than 67, and is no higher than level 2 is a good candidate.
Hero Guide Part 2
How Attributes Work:
Now, the three attributes that you have concern yourself with are Attack, Politics, and Intelligence. To get the benefits of any attribute, you have to appoint that Hero as Mayor. For example, when you need to build up your army select a Hero that has the highest Attack for Mayor, and your troops training times will decrease. High Intelligence will shorten the time it takes to get technology upgrades, and high Politics increases resource production rate, while shortening the time it takes to construct or upgrade a building. For this reason, it is wise to have a Mayor, with high Politics at all times, unless you're upgrading your sciences or training troops.
Hero Guide Part 3
Experience:
Most think the only was a Hero can gain a lot of experience experience at once is through fighting battles, this is the most common way however, there is at least one other way. You can gain experience through the Mayor position, and contrary to popular belief you can get lots of experience all at once if you time it so that a Hero is Mayor during a the time that a construction or upgrade is completed. Which ever Hero is Mayor at the time will get a chunk of experience all at once; not just a trickle, and you can upgrade low level Heros quickly by doing this.
Note:As far as I can tell attributes don't have anything to do with mission results, but level does. I might be wrong on this one, but is seems to me choosing a Hero with a high attack, for instance, has no affect on the outcome of a battle.*
*Let me know if I'm wrong on this one and I will change my guide accordingly.
Because defence buildings are built directly onto the city, it is your Politics hero that will shorten construction time, not your attack hero.
You're absolutely right.
12m gain is a hell of a lot better than 1.4m gain.
Finding an untouched lvl5, now that's another story altogether :P
My apologies to Savemesatan but you're absolutely right. :o I will change it immediately and thanks for spotting it. DOH!!
actually i just realised i used the wrong numbers
i used 120k per resource when its really 180k so its more than 12.2mil
yea it must be easier on the newer server, since i've built several npc farms around my cities
i think it should be noted this upgrade is only effective at the time of purchase, if a high attack hero is put in after they are already training, it wont do anything, alternativly, you can appoint him for a second to buy your troops, then put the politition back in and they will still train faster.
here is a strategy to earning medals from captured Valleys or Flats. (Does not apply to NPC'S).
Level 1 = 50 Archers for Cross, Rose
Level 2 = 50-100 Archers for Cross, Rose
Level 3 = 150 Archers for Cross, Rose, Lion
Level 4 = 400 Archers for Cross, Rose, Lion
Level 5 = 1,500 Archers for Lion, Honour
Level 6 = 5,000 Archers for Honour, Courage, Wisdom
Level 7 = 6,000 Archers for Courage, Wisdom, Freedom
(attacking vallies leveled 1-3 should take no losses regardless of technology level, but at least a level 3 archery is required to attack anything higher then a level 4 valley, along with your hero's attack value)
There is usually a 1% chance you will earn a medal from a successfull attack, so after you capture the flat you must recall your troops, abandon the valley, and wait for the assault force to get back before launching another attack. If you are lucky you may be able to receive a cross or possibly even a rose in 15 or 10 attacks to the same valley.
Some people are able to attack a neighboring flat just a mile away from their city and average one rose medal from an hours worth of attacks.
It is painfully typical. The higher level hero you get, the worse his stats are.
Few changes/facts:
You dont recall then abandon, you just abandon which makes them recall automatically.
You can always attack valleys as long as the troops are 100% recharged.
Drop chance depends on hero's INT.
Higher lvl valleys have higher drop chance.
New servers have nowhere near 5% drop rate.... ( more like 3-4% with 80 int hero )
Level 1 = 30* Archers for Cross, Rose
Level 2 = 50* Archers for Cross, Rose
Level 3 = 80* Archers for Rose, Lion
Level 4 = 400? Archers for Rose, Lion
Level 5 = 1,500 Archers for Lion, Honour
Level 6 = 5,000? Archers for Honour, Courage, Wisdom
Level 7 = 6,000? Archers for Courage, Wisdom, Freedom
You can even get Lion from lvl 7 so look that up :)
if you in new server, get wall or RP. even if u have TH10, you probably won't have the medal for promotion anyway (honor is much harder to farm compare to rose). when you actually farm enough medal, you should have the troops for lvl10 npc capture.
@struyk
u dont need hero with high int to get the medal...
i use various hero, but each one never had int above 50...even i use hero with 27 int
and this 27 int hero is the most success hero in bringing in medals.
and about the number of troops u send doesn't seem had any effect on chances to get medal. i send 20k archer to lv 5 valley and still i get medals.
btw i'm in w11
I hope you don't pass this information on to members of your alliance.
There's so many inactive lvl 10 towns that you can satisfy your need for a lvl10 town hall by simply taking one.
As the poster after you said, there is a difference between lvl9 and lvl10 walls, to ignore that is quite daft.
still, your chance of getting medals are quite low from others, i sent 3wave of attack to level2 NPC with moderated number of units, 3 wave aquired 3 honor medals, that's 100%, i doubt you have the same numbers as mine.This is good
Higher INT = higher medal drop rate.
if you are gonna post these at least let us know your TECH levels so we can compare
*also, is this on older server u doing this well ?
Can somebody explain what happened here? :eek::eek:
http://battlew5.evony.com/default.ht...323e256b4f.xml
These are the scout results before I attacked:
battlew5.evony.com/default.html?logfile/20090731/ed/27/ed275fd509013eace6c35b7f33a34e20.xml
His Archery and HBR are both lvl 6 and mine is both lvl8 so I don't understand what had happened.

http://battlew5.evony.com/default.ht...323e256b4f.xml
This is the scout reports:
battlew5.evony.com/default.html?logfile/20090731/ed/27/ed275fd509013eace6c35b7f33a34e20.xml
His Archery and HBR are lvl both lvl6 and mine is both lvl8 including informatics so how come all my troops died? And there were no archers shown when I scouted his city.
well i got 16 medals of which only 3 with my 92 atk, 22 int here... other 13 from my 102 int here :)
was the conclusion to this then coz ive never had a medal from vallies and im hanging on every word...
:mad::mad: you can get also a cross medal by attacking a level 4 :mad::mad:
Archer towers range increase when the walls get to lvl 6, and continue to increase as you upgrade the walls from there, so only going by the benefit of the lvl of archery, is not the way to go on that, but other than that, this guide was good, but, not what i was looking for, as i wasnt looking for anything on archery. just found it while i was looking for what i was.
good guide really helped
I attacked 119 valleys ranging from 1-5 so far using this method. 1 cross medal, 0 rose medals. I've used 9 different heros with int ranging from 40-112.
Any ideas?
