My Troops:
1 million archers
500k warriors
50k ballista
10k rams
50k cav
10k cataphract
5k catapult
400k scouts
20k sword
20k pike
30k transporters to take all his food and starve him out if he closed gates

Opponent:
300k archers
21k ballista
level 9 walls
zero archer towers - i killed all those before this attack
no layering nothing else

Battle Plan: Attacked from 3 cities with all waves coordinated to arrive within a 3 second window. That added up to 21 waves. All hero's were +100. with the highest attack value @ 216. All my techs = level 10. Used War Horn, Corselt, Penicilin, layered the waves, and had 1 wave hitting 3rd with 125k archers and hi attack hero(216).

Result: Everything died, and not a single battle report was generated. Gave the opposing player 6 million Honor. Post battle I scouted to see how much I had killed. There were 21k ballista and 300k archers remaining.

I realize its possible that the player was reinforced with tons of troops then they were sent home, and I didnt see anything because they clicked very fast and dismissed them. This illustrates the futility of the game, unless all you want to do is attack NPC's and horde resources. It is too easy to defend and far too difficult to attack. Why can I only send 125k per wave to attack and die one at a time, yet someone can defend with unlimited troops and get a range bonus which if they have enough troops your 125k strong wave will inflict zero casualties. That makes it impossible to attack. Not to mention if you ever caught someone off guard without the ability to reinforce, well... they could just teleport. Evony developers have been told about this nonsense, and they do nothing. There should be no limit on what you can attack with in addition to about 50 other good suggestions made by players and totally ignored by Evony. I spent money on this game like an idiot, but I am done.

To Evony devs: You had a great idea when you made this game, but your refusal to implement any of the suggestions made by players means you will lose 99% of your market share once someone decides to make a similar game with the obvious defects of this game fixed. You weaseled me out of some money and I wasted untold hours of my life, but I'm done.
Two words. Well Said.
