    there is no end game. and in the lead up to payplayers getting their ten cities and a massive ego thrill, they trash the free players

    so why not take the free players out of th equation and let the payplayers test heir skills and crdit cards against each other on a separate server?

    Don't blame the pay players just because your alliance sucks.

    yes give up no on cares. This game makes it soooooo hard to attack lords who are at the same level as you so the only other option is to attack people such as yourself. That in its self gets old very fast. destorying your defenses gives the attacker honor.

    1)I would teleport.

    2)Build 500 abatis, 18k archery towers.

    3)get 50k warriors, 100k archers, 10k pike , 10 swords, 5 cav, and 5k cata.

    4)having 1000 catapults or 10000 ballas would help you not get plundered. cause with a 100k archer attack the ballas will round one in range and kill most if not all of them 1000 pults = 1,450,000. Archers have 250 health base.... X 100k 2,500,000 for that unit size pults will get one free round on those archers. then one more to finish them.....

    Remember to open you gates when you have enough troops.

    This game has no end game.... sadly. so Farming people like you is all they do.

    Good luck no one will blame you for quiting.

    close your gate, build some archers and one of each other unit, and a few traps and abatis, maybe one very large group of ATs if you can afford it, once your walls/archery are high level, open gate, kill attackers. This game favors the defender very heavily, especially if they're online for the attack.

    When I first started playing this game, I set characters up on many servers and I monitored them. Weeks on end,, I would get daily scouts and plunders by mindless automitons for 800 lumber. Not noobs but high pres, multi city people. The instinct reaction was, they weren't players but bots. Mail them and the generic garbage was always the same.

    Most of the "this is what I would do, if it happened to me" advice is based on the "if it happened to me" when it hasen't aspect.
    When it happens, the situation becomes a little more clear. You are now a farm. You are a feeder aspect of the game for a 1% group.

    You are the lucky one though. You can leave now and know why you left, not wait 2 months and leave 10 cities fully developed, knowing you "won" and have no idea what it is you "won".

    Try something a little more developed, like Crazy 8's or Pong.

    sometimes talking to them helps.
    or joining an alliance

    I don't think you understand the why of their attacks.

    1) Winning/resources. If they are 500k, they just like easy targets and never want yo to build up
    2) Honor. If they destroy your defenses, they get honor. Honor hurts them in the long run, but some players are into that.
    3) Tey want you to quit. If you quit, they don't have to worry abut you attacking them in the future or attacking the barbarian cities that are need them because they need the food from them.

    So, the solution is simple, stop playing normal. Your best option is to send mails to them saying you are an active player and ask would they please stop their attacks. Some will laugh at you. If you have a city teleport and one city, do this:

    Close your gates, remove your defenses and build up your warehouses, rally point, and feasting hall. Then build nothing but scouts, a lot of them. Even if you go negative in food production, build scouts. Then send the scouts in to scout him. Right before it hits, send an attack with ONE scout to every one of his valleys. The 1 scout will capture it if he is offline or slow to save them all. Abandon the valley. Repeat every day. When he finally gets mad and attacks with everything, he can't steal from you cuz gates are closed, he can't kill your troops cuz gates are closed. Use Disaster relief from town hall to heal your Grievence. Spend your gold on food no matter what the cost or medic the scouts.

    If you have more than one city, then I suggest you teleport away any city you want to keep. The one or more cities you leave behind you abandon when his attack is about to hit in say 2-3 seconds before the hit. All the while continue to attack with scouts. basic annoy him as he has annoyed you. When you teleport any your cities go to a seperate state with each. The friendly one you will rebuild completely and do the same to any "bad guys" out there.

    Bullies should be treated as such. Punch them in the nose and give them nothing for it. They will kill off their own troops with NPC rather than your own.

    Otherwise, go to a newer server and start playing. You will get a bunch of free things and you can take what you learned from all your experiences.

    Default best idea

    Put your extra resources on the market at a price high enough where people won't touch them, that way they don't show up on the scouting reports.

    I would be happy to sell stuff, but that leaves me with gold to be plundered. I would be happy to build a massive army and/or defenses, but I can't get anything built, because I keep getting attacked. The few things that I do get built gets destroyed at each attack.

    If I want to protect my goods I have to put them into warehouses, but that just means that I'm still going to get attacked without losing everything. I've tried emailing that has done no good. Teleporting...well I'm getting hit from people from all over, so I'm not sure that is going to fix the problem. Anyway, thank you everyone for your advice. I'll try some strategy changes and see if it get better.

    You could:

    1) Teleport to a more, far, happy, place.
    2) Stop playing.
    3) Lowering taxes and people working to 0% for a few days.
    4) Mail them.
    5) Get into a really strong alliance.
    6) Watch the attacks while eating cake.
