I don't maintain a big army anymore, but they are still fine. If you limit the number of troops people have, people will be not risk them as much. Making the game more boring. And as a more casual player, 130k Archers or so, proper layering (size 1 or 0) and a big enough hero, you can slaughter most any single attack with no losses, except maybe some size 1 layers. Assuming you are online and all that. So once you know your opponent is online and has 1/2 a clue. You are done unless you can overwhelm him/her, so they can't set up the perfect defense of each incoming attack. For that, you need a big army.
Not exactly, numbers help, as they should, but they don't win (or at least not easily, and at a high high price) against a good strategic defender. There is no attack there is no counter for
Or the smart, online defender, will play possum. send one of each troop type from another town, or set up the barracks to pop out one if each
troops type out, 5 seconds before the hit. And have a trap or abatis pop out just before the hit. The defender losses like 6 troops, the 100k archer eat the horse meat for dinner.


bc if you are capped at say 1,000,000 troops, everyone will keep 1million catapults and some layers, and everyone will be able to beat catapult attacks with mixed cav smacks. + evony stands to gain much more money (teleports, truce, etc) by having more activity (no troop cap)
