    It it is a valid and allowed tactic in the game, then I would expect everyone to be utilizing the trick if they know about it. If it's considered an exploit, what would generally be done about it?
    Evony reps had said they were going to look into it a long ways back but nothing ever came of it so it is just a low tactic and not a game exploit.

    I'MMMMMMMM BAAAAAAAACCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK!

    They did call it an exploit and were adamant that they were going to patch it up. As you said though, nothing came of it.

    Probably best described a low tactic.....

    Thanks to Infinitus for the epic B'day pressie!

    No one EVER said it was a bannable offense, or anything to that effect. So I'm not really sure why you would think that. Stop trying to get people in trouble for using what you would consider to be underhanded tactics. Worry about things that matter, eh?

The troops in the embassy have stayed in the embassy since the person left and when the troops with a hero arrive they all join in the fight to attack at once. This is a low tactic since it is generally used on offline players to kill them even though they are same alliance. Either that or they are used so make impressive reports with tons of troops killed. Hope this answers your question.
    Bang on, im guessing this guy was giving him a city so that he could attack out of it (reason for all the mechs)

    Players using this kinda tactics deserved to be banned though indeed, else Evony might wanna change that message in the top of my screen to 'there is no such thing as cheating in Evony as long as you keep coining and dont bother us whilst counting your money' :P

    For real, i expect measures to be taken against this
    how is that a bannable offense? they are on the same team, it is simply an efficient way of handing over a city to another player and being imediatly ready to attack, rather than wait for your troops to travel there. you reinforce the city with your troops, which takes less time due to the rest station thing. then the defendor lowers loyalty and empties city, and boom you hit the city and have loads of troops already waiting there for you to immediatly attack with.

    Did you know that the embassy is a good way to level a hero, works the same as hiddien battles (war in vallies)?

    The trick a spy would use is this.
    First reinforce you with mech or slow moving troops.
    then create a scene to get a reason to get booted.
    Then attack you with his fastest troops.

    This attack can be stage to level heros for some serious experience.
    The object is to kill as many troops as possible, often the city has no or little walls.


    In WAR, one must decide their faith, or others will decide yours.

    Think you can read it without laughing? Go ahead and try it http://bbs.evony.com/showthread.php?...19#post1810519

    The troops will still count as reins even once u conquer the city so u cant rein capture then use the troops to attack as such...

    You can only send troops to an embassy of an alliance member.

    By default, any time you leave an alliance, any troops stored in an alliance members' embassy should undergo a compulsory recall.
