[-77297] Conqueror9 [None] :: Sept. 20, 2012, 8:58 a.m.
i get over 17 Macemen lost when they meet 19 crossbowmen in gate and 13 crossbowmen in courtyard of lvl 8 rbc;(:S

my amry are 25 Macemen and 8 crossbowmen and 1 ladder

Macemen and crossbowmen are the highest soldier that i can recruit

any 1 can give me some advice ..how to handle that to reduce the loss?(

you should use crossbowman to attack ( no maceman)
Attack 3 sides

read up on this: CLICK ME!! and download the file that you see. it needs a lot of revising so don't go blindly attacking rbc. do a spy mision and record the data and make necessary corrections and learn from it

at higher levels, the solutions it gives are too 'expensive' so u will need to cutdown on troops, by trial and error

i do not have sufficient crossbowmen to attack 3 side

even 1 side, i do not have sufficient crossbowmen to do it

i take your advice and other player advice

nvm all these. read at the bottom below the edit

you are doing a lvl 8 rbc and you are stuck. at least download the file and read up on the solutions and play around with them. there is no way someone will take u by the hand and give you the solutions when there already made publicly available

anyway, lvl 8 rbc (in ur post) is too vague as there are 3 levels
8-3: 6X on both flanks
8-2: 8X on both flanks
8-1: custom solution with traveling knights : left: Y/11KtZ || right: Y/11KtX

ps: don't ask what X/Y/Z mean. do ur homework. all info are on the excel file ;)
ps2: Kt obviously means traveling knights

EDIT:

hmm... u said cross

i waited doing anything above 6-2 till i had level 5 barracks, to get heavy cross. from 6-2 to 10-1 you can use travelling knights. that's what i did. you will suffer minimal losses
