Topic: [102634] Defend your castle

How to defend your castle.

~First Basic tips~

1. Extand walls as soon as you can to full
2. Build towers and gate to max s soon as you can.
3. Build defensive tools a lot of them
4. Build defending troops.

~Important tips~

First move your troops on either one flank or fully on centre. The flank will give victory on that side and 0% advantage in courtyard. The centre will give heavy losses to foe but he will be victorius and will get +30% in courtyard.
With good number of troops you will win. (More then foe)

~Amount of troops~

How many troops? I keep in main castle over 1k defenders, just little over of what enemy can send. Usually its enough, but no always.
5 meele and 5 range per lvl is a minimum
7,5 meele and 7,5 range per lvl is decent
10 meele and 10 range per lvl is very good.
You can have more but it will cost you in food.
Having over 2k troops in main castle uses full storage in about 18hours.

~Tools~

Put in every slot. Even the one you aren't currently using.Put a min of 12 in each.
And finally before you go to bed change your troop disposition on walls

GL defending

Let me guess. You copied this again from someone. YOU can hold 1000 troops in your main? Never defend in the center. There are too many troops there, and YOU will sustain heavy losses, while if the attacker has a decent setup, they will lose a little. 5 melee and 5 ranged per level? What do you mean? Horrible guide, as always. Gain experience before you tell other people what to do.

Sorry ruler, but this is not a good plan to follow.

It has many flaws and there is so much missing from it that it is counter productive. Leave the calculations to the experts, don't post it if you are not certain it is the best advice. I know this game pretty well, but you wont find me posting defence tips, why? Because I don't know enough about it, and others are in a better position to offer advice that is good.

This is slightly better than your what to build in your castle guide, but it should not be followed by anyone. If anyone is looking for tips on defending, there are many better threads out there. Try them instead.

Sorry Ruler but this is an abysmal defense setup. NEVER put up 100% front unless you want mass slaughter.
What i do and it tends too work is 100% one flank with 80% melee and 20% ranged troops on that wall. the rest stay in the keep. you then use 2 slots of Fire Arrows (Bulwark if you've got them) and 1 slot of of throwing stones. MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A SUPPORTIVE ALLIANCE AND... over 200 troops at least on the flank you chose. Thats the advice i would give because my brothers a expert at battles on this game and thats what he does.

-EDIT-

DO NOT TELL LIES!!!! No level 26 can get 1,000 troops.... If i where you i would stop telling fibs now before you end up like Paul.

LOL maybe it's because everything you did so far is bad. I'm rude? Than what does that make you? Are you really telling me YOU can hold 1000 troops in your main? If you're going to lie, at least make it believable.

I can. Can't say the same about you though.

Some of these tips are no duh.
2 and 3 are obivious
Of course you have to recurit defense troops and build tools.
