I have a question:
Are u able to upgrade buildings in your outpost and have them count as your xp quest or mission.For example u have to upgrade 5 farmhouse u upgrade one in the main castle can u upgrade one in the outpost and have it count toward your mission..Just wondering.

Hi,
I have five dwelling, 4 at castle and 1 at outpost, I have upgraded all 5. But the xp quest is still saying I have upgraded 4/5. Does the 1 in the outpost not count? I have started to build another dwelling in the castle to see if this is the problem.

XP quests are for main castle only and outposts doesn't count.

Thank u very much

The guide says that food outposts are the best but I really want a 8wood 2food one. Most of my food comes from RBC's anyway and I was wondering if that will be sustainable until I get my 2nd outpost?

edit: also if you have troops attacking from and outpost and someone takes your outpost while they are out do they disappear or return to you castle?

Hi. A couple of questions regarding capturing an outpost occupied by another player:
1) if the defending player transfers all the food out of the outpost before the attacking troops arrive, what will happen to those attacking troops?
2) does the attacking player assume control of the outpost immediately upon arriving?
Thank you!

Hi. Another question regarding capturing occupied outposts: In the travel planning on the attack menu, the box says: "Period of occupation: 1 day". What does that mean? If an outpost is captured, does the attacker not stay there until forced out? Thank you

[1354669] Itt2 [None] :: March 20, 2012, 6:10 p.m.

If you capture another players outpost you have to hold it for 24 hours before it actually becomes yours. During this period, your troops stay there "occupying" the outpost. But, you cannot change defenses, move soldiers around, build, or anything else. Be sure to plan some defense for this period.

Hello! I have a question too. Should i build dwellings also at my outpost or it is not necessary?

@ltt2: i don't know if it is true, because once i captured my outpost i changed defenses, built production units (woodcutters and farms) and moved some of my soldiers back to my castle just 12 hours or so after the occupation. It doesn't seem to have affected me somehow. Do you think i am for a surprise?

Edit: disregard my last comment ltt2. I thought you were talking about free outposts...;)

easy move your troops from your outpost to your main castle then attack

[1354758] pengy1220 [None] :: March 25, 2012, 1:52 p.m.

I would go with the 8 stone 2 food one. Hope this helps. ~Pengy1220

[1354766] Solus (INT2) [INT2] :: March 26, 2012, 12:30 a.m.

Then the attacking player cannot even move troops in and out or manipulate the wall defenses within that 24-hour period?

[1354768] Itt2 [None] :: March 26, 2012, 3:25 a.m.

You do not have control of the castle for 24 hours. You cannot see or make any adjustments to the defense settings. You can withdraw your troops, but I am pretty sure that doing so will withdraw your castelan also and forfeit the outpost. You can send support troops (and your alliance can also) and these can be withdrawn. When you send support troops, don't forget to change the time setting on the last screen unless you only want them to stay for an hour.

[1354769] Solus (INT2) [INT2] :: March 26, 2012, 8:03 a.m.

Thank you so much for these very helpful answers. Continuing the thread: Can the attacking player withdraw SOME of the troops, leaving others behind and remaining in occupancy of the outpost? And I don't suppose the attacking player can attack from the outpost during the occupancy period?
Also, during the occupancy period, will ANY successful counter-attack by the defending player reclaim the outpost, or must he send a Castellan?

How can you get 2 outposts?

[1354781] DELTA1 (IN1) [None] :: March 27, 2012, 12:25 p.m.

[1354782] MihaFighter [None] :: March 27, 2012, 5:13 p.m.

Hi
Is it better to capture another player's outposts or not?
