    Default Lost honor in a victory?

    this post has two points... so plz don't remove it for being off point... try to keep up

    battle4.evony.com/default.html?logfile/b9/cb/f7/15/b9cbf7150278a67fc1ab2fbbf9403492.xml

    two things worth noting here... first the regular horseys outlive and are faster than the heavy armored horseys... cataphracts have gone the way of the pike i asuume

    2ndly i won the fight... and lost honor?

    Great job on that mr. developer person... did ya have to get a degree to come up with this?

    thank you for clarifying

    so how bout making where when you send 3k horseys in, it doesn't take two trips to clear out the abatis? doesn't make since to bring someone much Ownage, and lose honor over the deal
    horseys are small raiding parties and only worth sending after defenses are cleared, however you lost the honor you get for wiping someones towers, by trying to further degrade them with your cav... seems anti climatic to me

    not even worth it if you lose honor over the deal

    your losses:

    191 cav
    191,000 food
    114,600 lumber
    95,500 iron

    287 cata
    574,000 food
    143,500 lumber
    717,500 iron

    total resources lost: 1,836,100


    his losses:

    8 traps
    400 food
    4,000 lumber
    800 stone
    400 iron

    1000 abatis
    100,000 food
    1,200,000 lumber
    150,000 iron

    total resources lost: 1,455,600

    In total, he lost fewer resources than you did in that battle. He gains honor, you lose honor.

    You didn't even plunder enough resources to cover the cost of the medic camp on those troops lost :-/ I hope you had alterior motives for attacking him. Abatis suck.

    yes the motive was to take the city, i use my cav as an in between punch while the rest of my waves are slowly marching back and forth

    it makes no since that the battlesystem is calibrated this way
    i'm gonna go kick a puppy

    dont kick a puppy... instead find someone who built a bunch of defensive trebuchets and rockfals and send 1000 warriors at a time. you'll gain something like 20,000 honor per wave even though you lose the warriors and you gain hundreds of thousands of hero xp

    your warriors cost next to nothing and the rockfall/logs destroy themselves to kill your warriors. works great for removing defenses at a very cheap cost and gaining honor (or prestige when attacking a npc city)
