Its so hard to decide.. Howcome is it hard to take this outpost ? There shouldnt be so many protecting right ? :S

Although the player is in ruins, his troops stationed at his outposts will still fight to defend it, so be careful if you choose to take this outpost.

From what I've heard about this outpost, its a great option, and 20 units of distance is nothing, especially with the outpost being an 8 food one! :) However, having to abandon your own outpost, which you've put a lot of effort into in, is, I know, hard to do. So, you may consider risking it and rushing to level 19 in order to keep both outposts...

oh i wouldnt suggest tht u capture it. once i captured this outpost from this ruby player. he was in ruins. i got there and captured it. but when i looked the outpost was just a lvl1 keep. it was like a regular outpost. :(

Well, I'm lvl 18 and have just one outpost.. The "super-outpost" stil there, but I just sent a spy there.. Omg.. 150 military units from a lvl 5 barracks AND 139 armed civilians.. :S And i've got maybe arround 130-140 attackers from lvl 2/3 barracks..
But this outpost is crazy.. I want it.

So, now I've added a picture of it.. I know he has 139 soldiers from a lvl 5 barracks.. And he has 150 armed civilians.. I don't have 300 attackers.. Maybe 130.. And this is only from lvl 3 barracks.. Guess I'll have to spent quite an ammount of coins to produce enought attackers, and spend quite many hours to build new ones and attack several times..

Or wait till someone attacks his outpost for resources and then capture it easily.

Yeah, you could wait till another player tries for it, and then counterattack and capture it from the other player.. ;)

DO THIS!
recruit tonnes of soliders in your op an main mostly attackers
get tonnes of tools
send on the two sides that have least amount of soliders
and MAKE SURE THE PERSONS NOT IN AN ALLIANCE!
if hes in an alliance just ask the leader before taking it

I would suggest someone nice on his server to attack the outpost for glory. Then this level 18 can take it. Pretty easy for people that has thousands of attackers.
[1390539] huzaifa memon (INT1) [None] :: Sept. 16, 2012, 12:09 a.m.
or just do what xiaomao said get a high level player to attack the outpost and kill all or most of the soliders and walaa you can capture it with like probably 100-200 soliders

  1. Yes you can capture an outpost of a player in ruins
  2. That is something unkown, the time from ruins to dissapear from the map is something no one can tell you exactly how much time will take.
  3. Some of the buildings will go into rubble, except for Decorations and ruby buildings, and some buildings like the keep
  4. If the barracks don't go into rubble yes you can, you can even recruit all the soldiers even if you don't have the level for the barracks unlock

All correct except No# 2.Ruins disappear from the map 14 days after they turn into ruins,though the more outposts the player has the longer that time is extended.
