Thread: Refuge...Why Bother

Hybrid View

    Default Refuge...Why Bother

    Since troops no longer refuge in Age 2 I am wondering why troops still have an upkeep cost? Seems to me that there is no need for it now. It would make more sense to put the upkeep cost into the cost to build the troops. If army sizes are a concern, there are ways to control them like high food costs to move and build troops. This would allow for farm cities to do what they were intended to do....produce food. You wouldn't have to farm npc's as much anymore. Your cities could do it for you. Food is the only resource that is constantly in the red. With no refuge, I don't see why this has to be the case.

    They don't? lol I never knew that. I have never player Age 2 but that seems pretty stupid having troop up keep if they don't die when their is no food.

    Well, losing food is still an important aspect, as you'll be unable to build when you have 0 food.

    This will probably be changed if that is the case.

    I know I'm planning ahead for that rather than being stuck with millions of troop and having a ninja-refuge patch put out.

    @Baltezar: Yes, but the ridiculous amount that each FB package gives you is more than enough to offset enough to queue up your barracks in 5-6 cities. You get 30 a day. That's 9.6 mil just for troop production. Granted, there are factors like how many cottages, etc., but this isn't even including 10/5 farming.

    Wrong....... nothing happens at all if all your city's run out of food, don't lose lose troops, don't lose gold... nothing.

    Funny when ppl that don't know whats there talking about, try and correct OP's that do knows what he's talking about.

    I can attest to this. I have an account that I have not played in weeks. Every city at 0 food. I still have all my troops and no refuge reports.

    I know Evony turned off the refuge code for a while; perhaps they just forgot to turn it back on
