I have just started the kingdom in ever winter glacier and i didn't find even one empty village up to now,but my castle is having 6 villages within a distance of 2 units and 7 more villages within a distance of 4 units.out of the 6 villages which are at a distance of less than 2 units from my castle,3 were occupied by a player who is 172 units away from me and all those three are food villages,so if i occupy them will he strike back from such a long distance? I am at level 29 and he is at level 44 and has only 7 villages including these 3.what shall i do?? ?(

He's not whining, he's asking a question.
Prannoy I would suggest not to take them, since he only has 7 he will most likely defend them vigorously. Find someone near your level, preferably with a weaker alliance, and take theirs, or search for new ones, which pop up at the edge of the player area every once in a while.

New ones are harder to capture because they have over 150 civillians that are stationed in them.

I capture those with 25 veteran macemans, those are fairly easy to capture

yeah, if you send 28 mace down one side and 28 cross down the other, with 4 ladders to help each and a few defense troops in the second wave, you'll lose less than half of your troops.

yes, but if you send ladders the capture attack takes a lot to arrive, and by that time someone else's got it

That's a good point, maybe I'll try without the ladders next time... and not get beat to the RV again. :P lol

I used to fill the flanks with crossbowmen, no tools and that did the job as far as I can remember. Can't remember the losses though.
Also, a handy tip, if they spawn, go for the farthest out villages first. Everyone else will go for the nearest ones.
EDIT: If you do manage to capture a new village, other players will probably be attacking too, they'll show up on your travel overview but they'll just bounce off, so don't worry.

Another handy trip, attack with marauders, those are the fastest units in the game, if you attack with 25 in each side everything will be good, and you wont need ladders
