We have found that it helps to first start running around in some tight circles for 2 minutes, followed by sending a 187k bare archer wave at Atlantis and within 10 seconds of it hitting clicking the star upgrade with a historical pol hero with wisemen set as mayor and the Queen idle with attacker set.

Some of our members reported a failure even with this procedure... but when we checked what they did, it turned out that they were either running circles the wrong direction or they attacked Atlantis from Burgundy. Some speculate that it matters if your IP address is registered North or South of the Equator too...

cheers,
