Thread: Best Army to send against a Level 5 Barbarian City

    Yeah... except you actually have to do the effort to Scout them and find the ones with good resources. And very rarely do you find someone sitting on close to 1 Million gold with only 1250 Towers as defense.

    As for what to attack with. 6666 Warriors and 666 Ballistae will take everything out with just the loss of the Warriors.

    Warriors are cheap and fast. Who cares if you loose a few 1000? Just another goofy aspect of this crazy game.

    I don't have nearly as many archers as suggested, but I have about 50k warriors, a couple thousand archers, and about 60-100 of each siege weapon. Am I going to get slaughtered trying a lvl 5 barb? I could REALLY use the gold for research but I don't want to end up suiciding my troops.

    Never tried it with 50K Warriors, but I think you would walk right over them. Especially with a little support from the back.

    I send 100K archers at level 5 barbarian towns. It's overkill, but it works. I lose about 2K archers and the rest can carry back all of the resources in the town in one trip so I don't have to worry about sending slow transporters along with the army.

    Everyone in my alliance who farm level 5's tell me the following, and it works.


    Iron working, Trad, Medicine = level 5
    Archery = level 8

    20K-30K warriors
    15K archers
    1 everything else
    tons of transporters.

    Level 6:
    660 Ballista
    even more transporters

    0 losses...

    Level 7:
    1300 Ballista
    even more more transporters

    0 losses...


    Level 8:
    5980 Ballista (very high attack hero, might be cutting it close to losing)
    a heck of a lot of transporters

    0 losses...

    Level 9:
    6950 Ballista + 650 Catapults
    ridonculous amount of transporters

    0 losses...

    Not sure I have enough ballista and catapults yet to wipe out 400K warriors, so I have not yet tried a level 10. I don't even care about the loot anymore, it's all about the hero xp, 1.2 mil p/hr hitting a 7, 8 & 9 that are all clustered about 1 of my cities.

    I sent 5k ballista and 500 transports on a lvl 5 npc and lost nothing. Now it does take 5 days with 9 lvl 9 barracks to make that many ballista but you don;t loose any.
