    The actual battle report would be nice. It could just be that the guy reinforced right before your friend's troops arrived.

    That report doesn't surprise me. After the defensive range boost, a level 10 wall with level 10 archery and 15K ATs can destroy a lot of stuff, even if the gates are closed.

    You lost because you got suckered into the "rainbow of death".
    Seriously, 1 of anything makes no difference to any battle, it is a forum myth.
    Try working out a balanced attack plan and do some more research.

    ahhh, the rainbow attack, a myth for some, workable for most!

    anyhow, archer towers are god's gift to the defense of your city....they are beatable after many many waves of troops, however you will probably lose your entire army before taking it, thus making it impossible!!!

    You lost because the boost a lvl 10 wal gives to that many archer towers is stupid at best game breaking at worst.

    I'm on the game breaking side of the fence and abandoned all my towns after wiping an army on lvl 10 walls. And the worst part about all of this is if you do throw 100,000's of troops at a city break all their archer towers the player just throws up a truce or teleports away and rebuilds them. You're out an army, cant attack or capture the opponents town. and the other player has 1,000,000,000 honor and you have 0.

    Oh and if you all want to see my grand attack on the lvl 10 walls...
    I was on server 13 so i can't even post the battle report because the forbidden bug that was there from day 1 STILL hasn't been fixed.

    On a side note you needed a lot more warriors with the current system to have won this fight and archers should be at 10:1 with towers so you needed another 100,000 or so archers.
    (yes that means you can't clear it in one attack)

    Aslo the rainbow troop thing is against other troops not wall defenses. It does nothing to help you against walls.

    The battle mechanics in Evony are rigid.. I think that's the best desctription I can give without being edited. As such, the 14 barracks you can have, unlimited army and astranomical damage you can throw at a city is an I-Win button. Contrary to those with goals of misery, there is one strategy in Evony. More.

    So the Devs gave the defence an I-win button. Walls 10, Archery 10 and Archer towers.

    It kind of balances out in a macabre sort of way.

    I dont normally reveal to anyone this side of myself but in your case I will make an exception. I heartily approve of your sig good sir.

    As for the OP to be on topic, lol. Lvl20 archery ftw.

    If battles start at 5000 range as some claim your foot troops rushed on ahead to their moron deaths at 2600 tower range. Leaving your siege undefended basically. I wonder if you didn't have those rams if you would have even killed half as many towers as you did.
