Thread: Help! Im being attacked over and over and i dont know what to do about it!

    Default Help! Im being attacked over and over and i dont know what to do about it!

    Stop,

    If you are this person, and find your city attacked over and over let me tell you what you have became. You are a supply store. If i was running low on lumber i would attack you over and over too. You are weak. I have no problem in loosing a couple thousand warriors to your pitiful attempts to ward me off.

    The most common reason for this scenario is after you built a lvl. 5 town hall to early, or played poorly in your 7 day grace period. This post is to help you regain your resource, your momentum, and most importantly your dignity.

    First things first, realize that you can never build enough armies. They have their city and your city for supplies and all you have are the leftovers. He will have the bigger army. Every time.

    Build warehouses, lots of levels and then click on the warehouse and put everything you earn into it. Use the warehouse skill in the academy if you can. Even if he has the high level privateering skill, he will get less and less from you every time. Build defenses. Archery towers are preferred, but that also depends on what he attacks you with. Build anything, traps, abitis, roll logs. Just make sure that he pays each time he wants to dip into his supply store. He will get less and less and loose more and more. Eventually they will pack up and move to greener less thorny pastures.

    Until they stop attacking, concentrate on entirely those two things, nothing else will help you. They will leave you alone eventually, and when they do make sure to build your defenses enough so that they will be less tempted to use you for a toy.

    If you are going to bluff about reinforcements.... make it realistic. 50,000 troops my ass.

    He ran to cry to his alliance and his host just laughed.

    50k war isn't a bluff all the time you know, I'm in server 2, and in my alliance theres people with massive armies, one of my friends has 25k war atm, but another alliance member has 25k archers, I wouldn't call 50k war a bluff, it might, I can't say for sure, but don't call everything a bluff.

    I said, a couple thousand warriors. Everything else is sematics. Maybe i should have said 600 warriors and 300 workers. Then agian its not the point of the whole article in the first place. Its not what you are being attacked with, but what you need to do about it, since you obviously couldnt stop one lone scout from taking your mighty fortress. Better?

    or...

    research market place to level 5 and hide all resources and gold there with no loss. Wharehouse are a waste of time and resources.

    Really, do you want to expound more....like how long it takes to get a lvl. 5 marketplace? The quickest way to protect yourself is by investing in Warehouse. If you are getting the crap kicked out of you how do you even save enough resources to build a lvl. 5 marketplace. If you are going to refute me have better information please. Im not saying that you are wrong, you just need to justify your comment.

    Its kind of obvious isn't it? Have the level 5 marketplace already built. When you get attacked or are away, sell all of your resources at crazy prices (so that they aren't bought.) Then when you come back, cancel the sell.

    I have recruited many different players who have gotten themselves into this predicament, In not one instance did they have a high level marketplace, or would they know how to utilize it if they did. This is a good tactic but only applys to the times that you are on and are utilizing it. What about the times you are offline. That 25000 food an hour dosnt mean anything if your next door neighbor is taking it every other hour. This tactic is slow, Specific, and in the end wholly ineffective. I thank you guys for suggesting it however.

    Hiding stuff in the market works really well, but not for gold(obviously you can't sell gold).. you don't HAVE to be on, you could just always hid your stuff when you leave.

    The problem is if they are attacking to conquer.
