    Default Gates open/closed question

    Hi,

    With one scout and a hero I tried scouting an inactive player. The scout was successful and he had almost 100k scouts and other troops as well.

    So I assumed his gates were closed.

    I then sent 1k warr to colonise him, I was defeated and I lost my hero. I don't get it. Does this mean gates were opened, and he is in fact, active??

    I tried scouting him again with a single scout, and same result as the first time.

    What's going on here??

    Ty!

    Active... an inactive can't open/close gates lol... unless there is some Age2 feature I'm unaware of that auto opens on attacks

    Ah k, so gates must have been opened, thanks!

    Actually, any chance this could be a bug? I googled around and seems there have been a few about colonization...

    3 letters brother.... 3 letters
    I don't believe in thinking before I speak
    I prefer to be just as surprised as everyone else by what I say

    There could be a couple things going on here...make sure that you send enough to break whatever Archer Towers he has, because 1k warriors wont kill many archer towers lol.

    Also, check your SR for any Scouts...if he has gates open and no scouts, you'll always get a report.

    Thanks to Jade for the epic pic

    Under 100k scouts and getting report with gates closed.......but gates magically open on attacks.

    1 of 2 options......player happens to be online or see the 4th post located above

    I say the comforting change is a step in the right direction, I argue facts and real ongoing situations of the matter...
    You dream up ideas that don't exist and STILL blame botters and STILL feel it's fair to have something forever in a war game...

    Perhaps he has fortifications? Because scouts dont get affected by them on scout runs

    You didn't give us enough information regarding what was on the scout reports. what other troops and walls were there on the first and last scout?
    If you got a report and there were 100k scouts on both scout reports, the gates were closed. Losing warriors on walls wont give often won't give you a report..especially with that few troops.
    How did you determine the city was "inactive"?
