The camp time strategy is fine - although it's someone one can learn to live with. Just check on attacks every once in a while - it's one extra click - no biggie


I have a counter strategy to your valley sniping plan though.

1k archers per valley for protection - as you said. Now, add to that a rainbow. In that rainbow is 1 catapult.

What's that do? Takes the defenders max range in that valley to 2250. The defenders archers are at 1950 range. Your geurilla archers? They got level 10 archery yet? No?

Every 4 hours you make 1k archers? So 1 player has to send sorties of 500 ballistae to your main town once every 2 hours utilizing camp? Will you have the resources? Will you be willing to sacrifice resources if swift cavalry raids swoop in should the ballistae be too far away?

I can see raids of 100k scouts possibly working into this equation somehow too.


It's an interesting idea, don't get me wrong... I'm just not sure it would be worth all the trouble for the person in control of the geurilla city.

Thoughts?

Counters to my counters? The server I play on still has tons of NPC's to farm and we barb more and more by the day so valleys are not needed that much honestly
