You got it Frankie. That's exactly right. Yes, yes and yes.

Woo hoo, ok then part duex, why when I have equipment available will it not allow me to place it under a commander, there are some slots filled, while some remain empty and then equipment is still below or in the smith area and I cant use it

[1537649] FrankePie (US1) [None] :: April 19, 2013, 3:03 a.m.
also in regards to previous questions, when I station troops at my castle from OP can the commander affect this as well

I'm confused with equipment, commander, and castellans items, when I attempt to apply them in my smithy etc, are the castellan items used in regards to your castle, ie protection and the commander is for your attack troops Not defensive? how about when I send support troops can I choose a different commander and will all those bonuses affect the overall outcome?

Yes and no, when you send support your commander bonuses are completely irrelevant, except the speed. The castellan of the other castle will determine the bonuses.

When you station troops it doesn't matter what commander you use, the defense bonuses are determined by the castellan

Attacks...scenario, Left Flank=40 Center=120 Right Flank=0, what is the best way to set up the attack for the bonus to work in your advantage? I enjoy playing this game A LOT lol, I would just like a better understanding of the effectiveness of the bonus'
And so in regards to previous question, make sure the castellan is at the max DEFENSIVE wise, and keep the range/melee lvls on your commanders?

I got a question about what lvl will I need to be until I sit 500 strong soldiers in my castle or out post without losing food

[1537694] Trage Nerd [None] :: April 19, 2013, 6:03 a.m.
I thnk you can get pretty close with level 40 kevinslane.

But you'll need lots of farms, parks and a bakery.
By the time you've built all those, you'll probably be a higher level.

No, you unlock a building at Level 13 called an estate.

The OP's are not protected.

Is it common to be attacked by players more than twice your level???? I thought I read as I'm learining that if you attack someone lower than you you loose glory points, No?
I've been sabbotoged 3 times...just got out of protection 4 days ago. I am just learning to attack now but so far I only loot. What is the point in sabbotoge? Not fair Margrave FighterChris79 no glory in that. Im level 12 he's level 25. if thats how this game will go continually hmmnnn?

Okay, right. There's a lot of misinterpreted facts here - I'm guessing a higher level person than you has been talking to you but has not been explaining things properly.

Firstly, if you attack someone deemed by the system to be much lower than you (factoring in both honour and level), you lose honour. You can only lose glory through the 2% you lose every day automatically, and if you open your gates (but that's not relevant).

Secondly, this doesn't apply with sabotage. Sabotage doesn't gain you honour or glory - or anything, really, for that matter. But it doesn't make you lose it, either.

Third, there's a general rule that players follow - "never attack anyone much weaker than you". War is a general exception, and it's not a strict rule that anyone has to follow, but in your case, it doesn't really apply anyway - it's sabotage, which isn't effected much by the level of the person who sends the spy (spies).

The player is probably sabotaging you for the daily challenge. Since level 12 players have worse buildings, it will take barely any time for their fires to be put out, so most players target low levels for the challenge. No, it's not fair, but if you're only level 12, then 5 fires per day won't take very long to put out at all, especially when compared to the days that fires can take to put out at high levels.

It's rare for someone to actually attack someone half their level. Attacking is when you send troops (and, optionally, tools) against another player (like you do against the Robber Baron Castle in the tutorial, but with a real player not a computer-controlled castle). It doesn't really help to attack anyone much smaller than you, in general.

The same as you built the first tower :"). Check the walls in your castle, there is some spots where you can towers there.

There is a slot for helmet armour artifact weapon and look. Are you trying to put armour in a helmet slot or something?

To go to everwinter glacier you need to be lv25 and 40 for Burning Sands. Unless you have reached lv 25 you cant do any.

Morale seems to be directly linked to attack power (morale and attack power are always the same in my attack screens). Does morale ever go more or less than the corresponding attack power? If so, how and when? Thanks!
