I know it is a war game and fighting over rvs is the way GGE made a game.
But how can a lower level player compete for a freshly spawned rv with players who are 10 or more levels higher.
The way they should have the spawned rvs only be visible to a certain level players. So the could compete for them in a fair manner.

You have to be active. Players who are active and spend rubies gain certain advantages. I personally think that the idea that new RVs spawned that are visible only to new players is not a bad idea, but that lessens the intensity of the game and does not reward the active and ruby buyers for their time and effort. However, when you start, you do have an advantage over them: distance. You are a lot closer to many RVs than they are, so if you play it right, you can get off to a good start.

most villages I find usually have 1 guy guarding which is good for taking
The one I capturing only has one 2 handed swords man guarding so im just sending in 20 macemen

That's because the capture attacks that come in or usually un-defendable. I suggest you not to to get RV by that way, you could get ruined. Players and Alliances will go nuts on you, they will attack you everyday and take your other RVs too. Better not to do it, if you are doing it do it wisely.

Thank you for bumping up a 3 month old thread.

Resource Villages sometimes spawn on what is called the "edge". All maps in the game are a circle, and its flat, like people used to think the Earth was. And on this Edge, RV's pop up every time a new player joins the world, or every other day or something. But the edge goes all the way around, so you'll have to find on which side of the edge (NESW) the RV's will pop up. A good way to obtain them before others is to get lots of charcoal, and then buy Wolves with them, because wolves are fast and are capable of making it to the RV before anyone else can. An army is only as fast as it's slowest unit, so send ONLY Wolves when attacking an RV.

Its not flat, you can see its curved, check distances of nearby castles above and below, also if you are on right of map and attacking castle on left you will go the shortest route, which might be to the right off map and back on other side.

I was told not to attack the villages because there's sort of an unwritten rule among the players that no one will attack each other out of respect, so I was trying not to do that. I'll just have to keep trying.

Well then that's an unwritten piece of rubbish. This is a war game, you can't just refuse to attack villagers "out of respect". I suggest that you get to level 60 if you aren't already, and then take all the villages you can get.

How do I find where there is an available resource village? I have been trying to find one for a long time and have had no luck. Can someone show me a screenshot of what they look like? Because all the ones around me are already occupied by people many levels higher than me so there's no possible way I can beat them.

resource villages are a sore subject in the empire game. I've been in Fire Peaks for a year and a half and no rv's yet. if I find 1 by the time I get there someone else has captured it. Big alliances are keeping the op's and rv's when their people go into ruins for themselves and other alliance members.

bumping this thread again? let it dieeee!!! please! its old, useless, overused!

[4192631] bria lynn (US1) [None] :: Nov. 10, 2015, 9:27 a.m.

I thought we were talking about fair play.  this is not fair play,

[4192635] bria lynn (US1) [None] :: Nov. 10, 2015, 9:42 a.m.

this issue will never be resolved because GGS will not commit , and  go against  big alliances.
