Thread: 1 Warrior can defend against 1,000's

  1. #1

    Default 1 Warrior can defend against 1,000's

    Maybe since the NPC farming was nerfed.. the Devs could come up with a solution to this.. why is it you can attack a city 100's of times.. but you cannot take it? Comfort Spam.. I will share this with all.. may come in handy for you some day.

    Items needed..
    Good relief station.
    At least two cities.

    Lets say you have been all but wiped out and you are about to loose your city.. Do you stay and fight or open your gates? Neither.. You send all of your troops out of that city to your backup city. This lowers your food needed. Then simply comfort.. Thats it.. with the constant click of the mouse.. you won't loose your city and you can hang on until they get tired and move on.

    Yes.. this can be overcome.. but should it really take that much of an effort when you have 8 cities.. 500k army and they have a couple of hundred warriors left? IMHO No.. it shouldn't..

    That's excellence, but eventually now that it's revealed someone will find a way over it. Thanks mate.

    Let me guess, someone did this to you so now it is a bad thing.

    That works fine, if the idiot is sending attacks slowly. However if they're doing it correctly, your loyalty will be too low and your stocks of food too depleted to continue to do this. Not to mention, while it works somewhat well against distant targets, it doesn't work as well for ones that are close by.

    The only way it could conceivably work is if you start doing this as soon as they start attacking, as once they get your loyalty down originally, it'll be too low to produce much food.

    .... if you have at least two cities resources are not an issue on the city being attacked. You could send enough food with CAV.

    I understand what you are saying.. but am I supposed to adv tele everytime I want to take over a city so I can be close enough?

    Err that's what I do when I'm trying to cap a city. I find all their nearby cities and hit all of them. It works very well for some reason...

    This isn't new? Peeps been sayin it for days. In fact it's even worse if someone is actually foolish enough to use a warehouse. However comforting is a once per 15min kinda thing, if you really have 8 cities and 500k army, you should theoretically be able to field 64 attacks. Even if the attack time is an hour per attack you could still have 1 attack hitting every 2 minutes. Although as has been said you'd probably be better fielding attacks on multiple towns, sucking all the resources dry until they have nothing left to comfort with.

    You asked WHY it's like this? Well some have suggested that almost no castles were ever taken by the brute force of knocking the walls down and storming inside, but rather the attackers came, killed all the defenders that came out, sieged the castle then starved the people out. This simulates that pretty well, someone has plenty of food so the people aren't really that unhappy, just sittin in their castle walls munchin on food waitin for invaders to go away.
