Epic Battle - Bohemia (server first?)
Could be a server first given the scale of the epic battle this morning.
Special thanks to Tiknight (who organized it!) / Mandrake / Peter1986 , and our friend RipLegion (thanks for being a good sport about it!), and pokey the original innovator of the strategy.
We've proven that even 900k archers (amongst other troops) on defense can be defeated.
However... we've also proven that the game is severely broken, in both battle mechanics / honor system. No one is safe, so better not sleep! 
All in all , it was a fun morning, given how boring this game has been for me recently. Thanks for everyone that participated!
Results
Total Defenses in the city before the attack:
170,000 warriors
378,000 scouts
10,000 pikes
10,000 swords
897,000 archers
3,000 transports
500 ballys
1,200 rams
9,372 catapults
18,168 towers
..Lots of boring attacks..
This was defeated in about an hour. Fully looted, and loyalty brought down to 11
- Tiknight has more interesting battles to post than me I think 
- I personally lost about 3.5 mil honor. And lost about 2 million scouts. Medic camp costs came in around 20 mil gold.
- RipLegion still owns his city, he logged on just in time to speech text it back to 100, and comfort (If only we started an hour earlier!)
- RipLegion is now #1 in honor on the server (grats), we collectively fed him the honor to make that top spot.
- RipLegion has ported his city OUT of Bohemia
- Total looted: 400m or so food (Tiknight's gotta fill in the rest, he got most of it! darn him!
)
Attacker Losses (as recorded from defender reports)
6,526,000 scouts (Total used was 3 million scouts, with 2.5 FINAl losses, the higher scout # was due to medic / resends)
214,000 warriors
150,000 archers
69,000 Ballistas
30k rams
10k cavalry (I didn't count the 30-500 troop waves)
But the sheer fact this battle took place was, to me, pretty amazing. It proves a point that anyone can be taken out. Even at the end game levels. Proves that this game can be more than just mexican stand-offs, and farming Inactive/Lowbie players. I hope this will open a lot of doors and get more people back interested in the game. Looking forward to seeing y'all out there 
GG all, and see you all on the battlefield!
