    Default suppression troops wont fight?

    i had my suppression setting at 100% and my troops would not fight specifically the warriors would not fight i had 42 million warriors they would not fight i then put my suppression setting at 0 for everything except the warriors and the warriors would not fight
    is their a cap on defending troops during a suppression? in the past i have had in excess 20 million warrior defending i lowered the warrior numbers to 33 million and they still would not fight

    i wanted to add that I lowered the total number of warrirors to less than 40 million and they still will not fight. i changed the supression to just warriors and they would not fight

    well ok in case any one cares i did some reserch on this
    in a colony back door 20 million warriors will fight if you have 1 more than 20 million the warriors do not exist if you have 40 million and a 50% supression they will fight

    LOL on servers that are over a year old people will have a 100 million warriors many people play with all HC even if they are a non coiner and just have 12's they get 720k warriors a day and they are not useful for attack except honor dumping so u build them up for defenses and they pile up colonizing people and putting my suppression on 0 except for warriors was a great way to use them. but as JP shows if u draft 700k warriors a day and do a fair amount of honor dumping you will have 100-200m warriors in a year or so I think most age 2 servers as old as NA 13 are dead so you have few players who have been drafting with 9 cities for a year. it still takes 2-10 million archers to take out 20 million warriors in a back door the difference depends o the attackers star set and the attackers heal rate.

    Yes, and that is just a backdoor attack. Something this is a unintended style of play and Dave said it will be changed in the future. So if backdoor style attacks were fixed then clearing 200 million warriors by outright attacking a HC in PvP would cost 10x more troops than a backdoor.

    Troop cap Dawn, troop cap.... Age 2 needs it. I know Evony has asid "We will not cap troops" but businesses need to change. It's all about change. Change is good. Sticking to "design concepts" that are 5 years old, bad.

    so 20 million warriors is the most you can use in a suppression battle?

    edit : surely this can't be what is intended? would evony of put a cap on the amount of troops you can use in a battle?

    no i have not experimented in any battle other than a back door where someone else attacks a city you have colonized. and for up rise but the days of putting 50million warriors in a city putting only warriors on suppression and saying come i dare you to back door me are gone this is a relativity new change in the last 2-3 months if you recall i had a battle report a few months ago with 25m million warriors in a back door battle.

    any way this is a change that effects older servers where peoples troop counts gets very large on na 13 we have one player with 220m (LC host of MAss) warriors so he cannot divide his warriors up. to defend his colonies he has to fool with his suppression settings as their are 12 servers older than na 13 so i imagine that it is a bigger issue

    You already KNOW what imma say about this....
    It ain't enough.
    We want a competitive battle field. Not some place where a player with a 15 star set can own everyone with 200 million warriors all day long.
    Hard cap on troops need to be put in place.
    But as for your question, I can't answer it. But I have seen instances where certain troop types won't fight in uprise/supression battles.

    well this looks like a compromise baking in the cake. applying it to suppression battles but not city battles and attacking.

    But JP i have to my troop numbers have little to do with my star set any one can build troops any one can have a city set up of 20-26 barracks times 10 cities and pump out troops like crazy even if they only have 10-11 star set and average attack of 500 having 809 attack 1020 with excal attack helps to be sure but the core of trope build up is
    1 have 20-26 barracks per city
    2 have HC's so u get 720k free warriors a day even if you only have 12's
    3 high attacks helps but that is not what builds troops barracks do drafts do nothing else.

    with that set up i make 750k archers a day if archers is all i build and i get close to 1million warriors cause i have 14's 16's etc, but even if i had an 11 or 10 set i would still make like 400k archers a day and with all 12s i would make 720 warriors a day any one can get to big big troop numbers. any one can get an 11 set and any one can get 12's. Frankly i think a troop cap helps the big guys in the long run because with limited troops with 1020 attack is better than 450 or 500 attack with limited troops and the big advantage of non coiners or light coiners is their are like 50 of them for every coiner. so they will have more troops as team than coiners will as a team because they will ahve like 500 cities to my 10.
