    Personally I'm glad for what will eventually scale down the 200k person armies and yes this comes from a person with huge armies to support as well. I honestly think it'll make things more interesting, new and young players will get farmed a lot at first until like Gazza said, they realize it isn't worth it and will have to adapt a new strategy.

    Yes, change was needed, but not mid-game. Try it on a new server. All that will happen to the old servers is a mass exodus of players.

    Not true. If you paid attention to the forums, several stratagies are already comming out to counter the new patch, most of them involving increasing attacks on PC village's who didn't build up massive armies. This didn't really hurt advanced players, as we have already found ways to cope with the change. That's why the advanced players are the advanced players; we are handed a situation and adapt in a way that allows us to continue to excell at this game. If we really were a bunch of selfish cheaters, then why do we continue to post guides designed to help weaker players get stronger?

    Hey, I didn't say it was a perfect strat...but for right now, I'm not madly scrambling around, trying to feed armies that are starving to death.

    Though I have to wonder if, as others armies are pared down, will my armies then be more equal, for less effort in the end? Guess only time will tell on that one.

    I opted for it as well StormWolf. Now it seems those that didn't get their just deserts. Don't you love it when Karma swings around?

    If you can find a strategy to support your massive army, than hats off to you - without a doubt you deserve an opportunity to grow your army as you see fit. However judging by hundreds of those whining about todays patch, they lack the skills to make the same happen. Certainly, producing 200k archers a day as one moderator suggested, is not going to be possible because you will not find a sustainable food source to support this type of growth rate.

    I got laughed at...

    "Forget wall def's...get your armies up...go for guts and honor, and plunder the food you need along the way", they said...

    "No, let me just plod along in my own slow way", said I...

    And, I woke up to this change, and nary a redlined food production stat in sight...
