Thread: Hello - Post your best cities wipes and reports!

    400k mech ssf? with people running around with a min of 100 mill archer and 2-4 mill mech it's hard to clear a city with just 400k troops. Even if you have 10 players each with 400k it's still going to take all you got to just dent it. The only reason i build so large is because my targets are even larger and when i get on someone's step i don't want to have to stop hitting because i ran out of troops. The days of running an account with the minimum is long gone, would it be nice if those days could return? of course. i loved the days when you got 100k pults in a war city and went out and destroyed people with it, however we all have to adjust to how it is today not how it was yesterday.

    and Doom please either post the report on the mythical city you speak of or stop posting, your just making yourself look foolish!

    400k mechs is a playable account, especially if you have a reputation. I was porting around 180 right before I quit with -200m making people twice that size port. there were definitely 2b-10b upkeep cities, but that doesn't mean I had to fight them. I have the benefit of people being scared of me, and I'm sure ssf does too. Nobody even scouted me to realize I had so few troops, they just assumed I was huge. It really blew my mind how nobody bothered to check. That helps, lol.

    When you look at the numbers, ya, 400k is nothing. But evony is also a game of fear, people make stupid decisions when they're scared. there's the math of evony, which is important. But in the end it comes down to quite literally player versus player.

    How does 1 person of skill beat another person of skill? You can't rely on them not knowing what to do, because they do. You have to get them flustered and make them do something stupid. Through fear of loss.

    Very, very good point that most dismiss. I play with ol' Blacky and ssf, and evidently their alliances, The_Just & Dacia respectively, have instilled fear/paranoia within alliance 411. Examples would include several major players in long-term hibernation, filler shields deployed at their burgundy hub, instant porting-out when one retaliates by porting-in on, etc. I'm not suggesting 411 are weak or "bad" - but this point illustrates the extent to which "FEAR" (Blacky's flag FYI!) affects game play.

    I don't care to see an image of that supposed mega-city. There is nothing to be proud of cowering away in holiday like that with a trophy city that makes one feel good about themselves. I know the demand to see a screenshot is to rip out the bs, but giving it any attention would only add to the said, and every, trophy-horder's satisfaction and feeling of accomplishment.

    Yes you are correct that fear plays a big part in the game, and yes when players are too attached to their pixels it makes it easy to run around unscathed.

    but 400k mech will not dent most main accounts on older servers, and attacking a farming alt that has 100k arch and 4k bali in it gives me no pride!

    There are not just a couple massive accounts on the server i play, there is an entire alliance of massive accounts, and they have 15 sub alliances also with some massive accounts.

    the auto port, instant truce, mega 80 mile hub's are a testament to the hitters that go out and put troops and hero's at risk for the big kills!

    as far as holiday goes i will just have to agree to disagree, being an avid coiner and having very little time to play; being able to shelf my account until the next time i have to play is the only reason i still log. i log 2-3 times a week for maybe 2-3 hours at a crack and all i want to do during that time is to kill and loot reds. holiday allows that for me, however if a red is bold enough to step up and attack me i will gladly give them the chance while i am online . i am not a auto porting fast to truce player, but i do protect what i have and i do not put extra effort on my team mates forcing them to babysit my account 98% of a week because i am not around.

    The nice thing is Evony allows for all play types, people can be farmers/attackers/defenders/fodder/ and with truce/dream truce/ports/and yes holiday people have options on making sure they can fight on their own terms!

    i have a red alliance that has been upset for years because i sit in holiday when away, some times for a week at a time. They are upset because when i log their pixels die, their loot gets taken, and when i am done i am back in holiday. Was almost 2+ years i went without getting hit back, recently though it seems they have some fresh blood that is bold enough to try.

    Now if someone has a mega city and sits in holiday but never ever attacks anyone, or gives the chance for someone to attack them when they do log, then yes that just seems silly. But then again not everyone likes or are good at attacking and they take pride in the big pixels they have amassed! If you have a target like that on your server i just suggest you wait and watch, they will log sooner or later, just make sure your prepared! Those massive accounts that are always in holiday though and never do anything pose zero risk, if they are sitting in holiday all the time i sugest you send them a thank you mail for paying evony to keep the lights on so we all still have a game to play!

    I guarantee you there are smaller accounts in alliances you don't even know exist. I used to think the same way until I joined a smaller alliance.

    I refuged about 500m upkeep on 180 3 weeks before I quit, I knew it was happening as it was happening. I just didn't care to log in. It was amazing to people how little I cared about my accounts, lol.

    My drop cities had ress and so did other ones on the account, I just decided another few hours of sleep was more important. Didn't build any troops after that in the 3 weeks till I quit.

    seriously? of course i dont clear 100m archers. does anyone sit still long enough for me to fire 2 whole sets anymore? NO. i show up, they leave. or they truce, they holiday, they move to a non extradition country. Ive not been a "Threat" on ss38 for months/years with ssf needing a major rebuild for a long time. Redsiege olny noticed a few days ago my account had ran outta coins and wiped SSF the other day. Nice report for him to show for it too, But not much i can do when i thought coins didnt run out for another week yet :/ But ill rebuild, and ill find siege again and wipe him online, if he will sit still long enough. Shame the olny time i get hit is when my acc comes outta hols by mistake tho i miss defending.

    cush hits the nail on the head, yet again. like i said, im never going to carry 10m mechs, Im not interested in building that much. i get my kicks from chasing mega accs with a ****y 300m burn city and scaring off 2b burn citys. and if they stay, SDMF comes and beats them to a pulp. plus who needs to carry heavy when you got an overweight war city carrying brother?
