Topic: [77137] 600 attack army lost

[-77137] NicKor [None] :: Sept. 16, 2012, 5:43 p.m.
my attack army was in my outpost. 600 attack troops, marauders, travelings, and my own recruited troops. i go to sleep and they all get wiped out over night! if i was here i would of sent my attack army off and sent all my defense troops in and won that guy.X(


Anyone know a way to set your attack army when you go to sleep? i was thinking either keeping it spread out to all my castles, but then i would just have groups of attack troops. or just when i go to sleep or am off for a while send them to my main castle with 60k food?

You could send off your attackers away to a far away lower level Robber Baron if you want to keep them safe overnight.
That's what I do.

There are two easy ways to do this.

1. Find a suitable member of your alliance at a distance where you can travel, station for one hour and then return by the time you're online again. Your troops could only get killed for the 1 hour they are stationed. Pick a strong castle to station them.

2. Send them to an overnight attack on a player or tower. Same as before, if you time it right they'll be home in time for breakfast.

3. NINJA TIME! Leave your alliance, then send the attack to either one of your alliance members or a PACT alliance member. Rejoin your alliance and the troops will bounce off when they get to their target. Brunch anyone?

ok ima get a robber baron castle the right distance away and attack that every night. ima get it to like level 10 and then switch to another close by.

mannnn why do i always learn these important lessons the hard way??? first time i didn't know to set all my wall troops to one side and lost all my 1000+ defense troops/alliance support, now i lost all my army over night hehe xD

I would suggest you be careful doing that, as there is a major bug problem with losing troops. Personally I think you have a better chance of not getting attacked than of not losing troops due to the bug.

....You can make a thread for a question and not put it on other threads...

That's true, usually I don't do that as no one attacks me that often.

i can do whatever i want and a nicer person gave me the answer

That's actually off topic and you can get infraction points for that...
But to answer your question, you can get outposts by having an estate. You can get an estate at level 13. Click on the outpost you want to capture, and click on the button "Capture" and send your attack. You can also get a castle at the other kingdoms. You can do this by clicking the button on the center-bottom of the screen that says "Map of Kingdoms" and click on a kingdom. Then you have to donate and choose the direction of your castle on the map, and you're done.
Back to the topic...

People are mean to you because of your constant disregard for the rules. You double posted and hijacked someone else's thread. You also failed to do a search before making a new thread.

It also makes a bad impression when you fail to use correct spelling, grammar and punctuation - in those 2 quoted posts, you missed out 3 capital letters, 2 question marks, a "y" and wrote a completely ambigous clause without implying anything at the end. You also said that everyone who has replied to you has been unnessecarily harsh, which certainly can't help anything.

You can do whatever you want, but if you carry on breaking the rules then you are likely to be banned.
