    Gringo has pointed out the biggest flaw in age2
    and the fundamental reason no big player has colonies
    I have 1 colony the player quit but logs in daily to train catapults for me
    he took my advise on game play to a new server and is doing well
    The idea of life is not to arrive at ones grave safely...
    But to hurl oneself at deaths gate with contempt in a body that can take no more....


    But where does this Death guy live? coords if you have them...

    ive done it twice TBH and the funny thing is, they keep looking for you, keep sending 100k archers. so you save a truce agreement and a random port.he comes to suze, apply truce agreement, theres wasted resources there, he spent X food on 100k archers to take a stroll to your city walls and back.
    he will wait 12 hours, so port. out of state.

    Lol I have marched 400 miles to colonize people like you

    After having played age1 and then age 11, I firmly believe age 11 will be the downfall of evony.. When a player with 4 million plus points can takeover a player less than one tenth his size and the only way to get your township back is to beat him or her in a fight there really is no incentive to play.. I worked hard to build my township only to have a player attack me with over 200,000 troops and take my township. there really is no way to get him out because everytime I managed to build up a decent hero it disappeared, I lost troops regularly and 15% of my resources go to him every day along with what he gets from the other 20 odd townships he has.
    Eventually I turned everything off in the town, in the hope this guy, (with over 4 million points) would quit as suzerain, but no he keeps control of a city he gets a maximum of 15 of each resource per day and no gold. there are no troops in the city and no hero's left. So basically the guy has forced me out of the game for 15 of each resource per day. This will eventually work against the game owners. As these players take more towns and people turn things off as a way to try to get rid of them, they will, like me eventually quit out of frustration. So in the long run Evony will have 100 or 200 players left who dont need to spend real money because they already control the servers. In my opinion the developers really didn't put enough thought into this style of game play. All other games I've ever played have AZ's or attack zones, which stops bigger players from taking out smaller players.. Evony has done exactly the opposite, they actually encourage big players to take control of smaller players towns.

    Lol well ageI is much more hardcore in my opinion (conquering player cities vs colonization/suppression), you just need to read more about playing defensively and different tactics you can use when you are colonized. Keep trying to read different guides here on the forums and ask members about what to do, I'd follow Gringo's advice earlier stated about joining the suz's alliance, but don't give up. You can send your troops on marches to stop the drafting (check what time he normally drafts at), its only 10% resource as tributes not the end of the world hopefully.

    Good luck

    yeah that happens lmao.
    i found that one out when i used to be a noob, if your a player who hunts, then the thrill is in the chase, my self, i prefer not to be colonised, as gameplay while your army gets drafted, a daily 100k scout bomb to kill the precious few scouts you made to find vallies, the constant plundering and dumping of hard earned vallies (all by a suzerain i was held under)

    you tell me if that is incentive for someone to say im going to still keep playing to spite you.
    i bulk out 4 times that former suzerains prestige now, however he left when he himself got colonised and
    if your a 10 year old kid who wants to have fun and that happens? would you still play when every step forward is 2 steps back?
    im 22 obviously, and i do enjoy a challenge. but the cruelty of some players who deliberatly noob abuse in that manner is quite bad
    (they must really have issues)
    duty ends only in death

    Elvin. Sadly many feel this way. However there are many many things set up to make the colony/defender have the advantage. If you are on server na13 please contact me. My alliance was created specifically to help the less fortunate. If not. Find ANYONE bigger then him. Then destroy your academy and mail them asking them to suz you if they do not draft troops. Preferably an enemy of your Suz.

    Or just come to NA13 and start in Romanga. And look me up.
