If I capture an outpost that has lvl 10 farmhouses, will they work the same way even if I don't have the required lvl to obtain lvl 10 farmhouses? If player A has captured player B's outpost which has many lvl 10 farmhouses but Player A is only lvl 31 will the farmhouses stay or what will happen to them?

Thank you.

The buildings will remain and they will work the same. Even if you are not at the level required to build them.

Be aware that some buildings may be ruined in the takeover though. These will have to be demolished and cleared from the castle. The more damage (more fires) a castle has, the higher the chance that more building will be in this state when you take it over.

Good luck!

Yes, it is possible. You go to the menu, "Management". Then you hit the button that shows a boarded up flag. That is the retreat button. Happy Playing!

could somebody tell me how 32 crossbow men can defeat114 men composed of13 halberders, 15 archers, 5 bowmen, 75 spear and rest citizens,they were defending my outpost i had defences in place transfered my men across but still lost.

[1356210] KegBert [None] :: April 28, 2012, 6:51 a.m.

What do you guys think about outpost placement? I want an 8 food outpost but the closest one is like 26 tiles/fields away. Is that too far? and could there be advantages to having a food outpost farther away from your main castle?
thnks.

if they are normal crossbowmen then i'm not sure. must have used a lot of tools. even then...

if they are heavy crossbowmen or vets or traveling knights then yeah i can see, because almost all of your defenses are good against melee attackers but suck against ranged ones.

thnks.

do you mean there isn't a free one in 26 squares? or there isn't one at all? if there is one that some1 else owns i would try to capture it. my furthest outpost is only 8 squares from my castle (i have 3 outposts). if there are any advantages i think they are greatly outnumbered by the disadvantages. for example, if some1 attacks your outpost will you have enough time to send reinforcements from your castle and/or other outposts?

[1356217] sapphire_a [None] :: April 28, 2012, 3:37 p.m.

so, do you get any of the resources from that outpost? or any of the materials you used to build stuff? we don't get all this back, do we?

Gold production belongs to the main castle.
There is no decrease of public order in main castle only in the outpost.
All level ups of building can be done without castle level. There exist no castle levels.
You can pick out any building without having others and you are able to level them as high as you want. Stopping at the level limit.

Perfect are outposts with 6 or 8 food.
There you can have 6 or 8 farmhouses with 100% efficiency.
After this you have normal decreasing efficiency, 75%, 56%,....
With that outposts you can feed loads of soldiers.
The soldiers in the outpost eat in the outpost.
You can send them permanent to the main castle.
Than they eat in the main castle.

The space in outpost can be extended independent from any levels too.
So you can make enough space from the beginning of outpost.

Only the castellan is very slow when conquer an outpost.
Transport and moving of soldiers have the speed of alliance.
And this is very very fast.

First you should build a storage that the resources that you send from the main castle to the outpost not get lost and the resources that will be produced in outpost not get lost too.

To send resources to the outpost you dont need a market place. But you should build one, because later you want send the food that you produce in outpost to the main castle. You should take care to send the soldiers that conquer the outpost back home to main castle. There is only little food in the beginning of an outpost. The soldiers start to eat in the main castle when they arrived there – not before.

There are many concepts for having an effective outpost.
Later I will introduce some concepts and strategies.

For example:

As my personal concept I build in all outposts a barrack too. As I have the resources I will level them up. That enables me to produce soldiers at the same time in my outposts. Up to this point I was only able to recruit one after another. With the further barracks I am able to arm up with more speed. And I can move the soldiers permanent to main castle or other outposts. The level up of the keep fasten the level speed I overstayed to do.

Excuse my english its not my native language.

Hope the informations help and maybe badgoodgod can translate into proper english.

With compliments munele

First sentence, there's no gold. there are RUBIES, not GOLD.

PS: ( 4th paragraph ) not just alliance. When your level 38 (approximately) you get research tower, and you can upgrade attacking army's speed. Takes 8 hours. Just resources, not rubies or coins.

Hopes this helps!!!! ( ignore these tips if you want. )

[1356276] qwerty warrior [None] :: April 29, 2012, 11:24 a.m.

No, but seriously these should help.

[1356401] king oliver36 [None] :: May 2, 2012, 5:31 a.m.

with out posts i have realized that your castellan stays there what happened to him or her??????????????????????????????????

[1356403] GranteD [None] :: May 2, 2012, 5:47 a.m.

the castellan becomes the one in charge of the outpost.

[1358933] superj11 [None] :: May 27, 2012, 6:57 p.m.

i am currently lvl 14 and i wonder if i should build troops in my food outpost

[1358953] LOL LOL2 [None] :: May 28, 2012, 12:41 a.m.

yes of course you should build troops there

[1359050] EpicDestructor [None] :: May 28, 2012, 5:58 p.m.

How do you recapture your outpost?

[1359583] kumarn [None] :: June 4, 2012, 8:27 a.m.

You must have a castellan available and you need to click on the outpost that you have abandoned and you need to press capture and then send your army there to capture the outpost. If the outpost is owned by someone else now then you must still attack them but just after you have won the capture battle when your 24 hours of occupation start you need to get your defensive troops in and your offensive troops out.
Also you may need to send some food there as there is no guarantee thayt there will be enough food for your troops.
You can check this by sending an economy espionage.

[1360431] Super spy814 [None] :: June 12, 2012, 10:47 p.m.

If you abandon an outpost will it give you your castellan you used on that outpost back?

[1360447] J.I. Joe2 [None] :: June 13, 2012, 1:05 a.m.

You will have the possibility to have another outpost instead, yes.

[1360466] martin renner (NL1) [NL1] :: June 13, 2012, 4:29 a.m.

Many thanks for this explanation, but there is one thing I cannot do: sending the army back to the main castle. How do you do this?
