    I'm told that when your total "seige" exceeds 15% of total troop (15k for a 100k army), the def treb will target seige weaponry first instead of archers.

    (IN your second report, you sent more warriors...and maybe they got hit by the DT's first)?
    I'll have to test this out by sending more warriors with my 20k ballista's later tonight when the NPC respawns.

    Where did you hear this or do you have any reliable source to back this up? I'm not saying that you are wrong, just wondering if I can find out more about this.

    Thanks.

    He is indeed correct, if ballista exceed 15k, some ballista loss will exist.

    Nope... I don't have any reliable source to back it up, but rather talking from experience (and talking to others).

    Also, whether it's 15% Ballista or 15% Seige weaponry (which includes Ram, Ballista, Transporter, and Catapult) is something that I have no clue either. Right now, I'm just sending 15% seige weaponry for my farming hits, and it is working fine...

    Here you guys go, an attack I just did. Sort of to show attacking a level 10 NPC without straight 10 techs.

    First, I sent 4 waves of 5k warriors to clear out some of the traps/rolling logs

    http://battle32.evony.com/default.ht...1b47e92da3.xml

    Hero was 137 attack
    Pertinent Techs
    Archery - 10
    Medicine - 9
    HBR - 8
    Compass - 6
    Iron Working - 9
    Military Tradition - 9

    By the way, this is with 0 buffs, and without war ensign (obviously)

    Heavy, heavy losses, not worth it to attack with these sort of losses.

    I wasn't attacking for the resources; rather the medal/testing how'd I'd do.

    If anyone wants to analyze this, go ahead. Besides the fact that I don't have all level 10 techs.

    Yes all my techs are at 10 and have a 148 Att hero, ensured that the the NPC hero was single digit as well. I will try the warrior approach and see what happens. Thanks for the tip.

    Hmm... From my experience whenever heavy losses occur from a lvl 10 NPC, it's because the warriors have reached your archers. To prevent this, some people like to use layering, 1k troops, then archers, or wait until your attack hero's level is higher.

    The troops you lose from traps and archer towers would only be around 10k
