Losses? They come with war. Unbreakable armies means Armies only get bigger and biger and bigger.
I can well imagine seeing a battle report telling you you are out 90K Ballista or 50K ballista is a sick feeling but so is logging on to a plundered city that you spent weeks building fortifacations for.
Huh? I tell you that you can send your entire army at me and lose them all doing absolutely no damage to me whatsoever, and that the supposed 'nerf' did not actually hurt me and I can still farm the 50+ million food per day that I need, but now you probably never will be able to, and you don't see the problem?

Those of us who have figured out the game mechanics by virtue of experimentation are just trying to tell you that the game has now been turned into 'strong must beat up weak, because strong cannot even scratch strong any more.'

Just listen. I AM NOT HURT BY THIS 'FIX'. I CAN STILL FARM BARBARIANS WITHOUT LOSSES. What I cannot do is fight anyone with a lvl 9 wall, and 9+ archery. So I have no choice but to send my armies to annihilate weaker opponents, or quit.

The people who are whining are doing so because they are children who can't figure out the new game play, and thus don't have any food. It was pretty simple to kill off enough of my troops to get to the 50million a day rate that I am at now, and can sustain. That is still VASTLY more than most of the rest of the server can achieve.

I am trying to explain to you exactly what is wrong now. I am not whining. I am not hurt. Hell, I posted a link in about a dozen places showing me farming a lvl 5 barb post 'fix'.

Think about this rationally. Why would I be complaining about this if I can still farm barbs, and am not personally hurt by the effects, if there weren't actually maybe something to what I am saying. Like basic math. Attacking with 90k troops that have a total build time of several weeks, losing them all, and inflicting virtually no losses = not sustainable. So we sit here, and crush noobs, with our slightly reduced but still huge armies that cannot hurt each other any more, hoping against hope that something will change to make the game playable for us again.

Really, I am trying to help you out here, so that you don't finally reach the top levels and realize 'crap, I wasted a month getting into the top 100 just to play a game that is now unplayable.'

But there are none so blind as those who will not see, none so deaf as those who will not hear.
