The Absoulute Way to Prolong Protection On Your City After Getting Off Protection

[Lynnore]

#3 - Use your intelligence hero with the highest points as mayor while u are away or sleeping. This will help protect ur info while u are sleeping. more on this later on...

Disagree on this, just put in your politics hero. If you get attacked or scouted, Evony automatically assigns the hero with highest attack (whether it is your mayor or not) to defend.

#5 - Save the upgrades that take the longest till the very end after everything else has been upgraded.

I would say, save the long upgrades for when you sleep or go afk for long times.

Only do that for informatics and beacon those are two very important elements and MUST be upgraded to higher levels ASAP.

Most important is your walls and wall defense, since valleys can be taken over by just a few archer (you don't even need to know whats there) informatics and beacon can be left aside for some time. I recommend starting with the walls and the defense on it, that will be what protects you when you're out of beginner protection, not beacon tower.

#7 - Barracks, Beacon, Informatics, Walls, Construction, Engineering and Machinery are the top priority upgrades for this to work in that order. Iron Working, Military Tradition are second priority and then Military Science and Metal Casting are third all in that order.. This priority list should help u maintain a strong defense while hiding ur info as first priority and then defense.

I go full out on the defense when i start (Meaning i start researching all relevant techs used in combat after i get the production research to a reasonable level), machinery doesn't do much, Military Science and Metal Casting helps you on building defense and having a good defense early in the game is the key to surviving.

#8 - Info > Defense > Offense - Trust me on this you'll thank me later

Defense is number 1 priority. I don't know why you go for scouting operations first.

#9 - Right before something is done such as an upgrade, research or an order of troops switch to mayor that corresponds to what's gonna finish so he gets the xp for his efforts. that way he can further help you quicker. so if a troop order is about to complete make attack hero mayor so he can level up quicker and your gonna have to switch to that hero and make him mayor anyways to begin another order, u might aswell benefit from the xp at the same time.

Politics hero is hardest to level up at start, so leave it at politics hero.

--- Upgraded the lowest times for everything i possibly could in the first few days so to raise my upgrade completion time down the road and wipe out the minimums ASAP.

Follow quests, if you start building everything that's fast, you will run out of resources and it will take you more time to get them back compared to someone who follows the quests.

--- Now the day has come and i was out of protection and i was worried especially when i already had a few million in resources, so i just stayed low and under the radar. I decided not to attack anyone and to keep profiting from the market and began focusing on raising my defense ASAP.

Defense should have been there already.

--- After my wall was at around lvl 5 i started researching Engineering and get it to lvl 5 ASAP.

Engineering doesn't do much good if you don't have wall defense - it just takes a few more troops, and at only level 5 wall it's no use researching it because it doesn't take much to bring it down.

--- When i was basically doubling my resources with every sell i made and i was loaded i decided in order to protect myself i need to mass produce scouts ASAP and as many as i could so i need to build more barracks ASAP

Those barracks should have been there already, you said you only upgraded the short upgrades. Then where's the barracks?

--- After i had 7 barracks i can start mass producing of scouts and so i did. My target was to reach 10k scouts ASAP. This will help in these ways:

Uhm, i had 14 barracks to start with in beginner protection. All level 4 to make archers, one level 9 and while i was building ballistas in that single level 9 barrack, i was researching archery and HBR to an appropriate level while making scouts and archers in the other barracks. Meanwhile building archer towers and upgrading walls.

- As my defense was really blowing up now, i began really mass producing alot of archers and swordsman. my target was 1k swords and 2k archers. i built them rather quickly in a few hours with 4-5 barracks mass producing them

What defense?? Level 5 walls and no mention of wall defense?

--- now to make this guide shorter i'm just gonna go to the end... i got out of protection on 8/27 and till this moment i have never been scouted or attacked.

That really doesn't make you good, that makes you lucky.

i mean who's gonna attack a big fortess blind if a scout war is ur first line of defense.

Noobs will, and they will succeed since your only protection was trying to be unscoutable. Trust me I've seen it before.

I skipped all the market parts, because the market depends on how old the server is. Don't try this on a new server because it wont work.

To come to a conclusion, your informatics, scouts and beacon tower didn't help you much since you never got scouted. I wouldn't give anyone resources who intends to go inactive for days.

I'd say you got lucky people left you alone, your alliance probably played a big part in that.

Now before responding, i don't mean to say your whole post sucks, you had some good points. I'm just telling my opinion on it.
