Topic: [103511] Attacking Troops

[-103511] Starbuck3 [None] :: Feb. 26, 2014, 4:14 a.m.
How can another castle whose level is lower that mine get to send large numbers of troops (450 to 700 troops) to my castle to do battle and when it return the favor I can only send maybe 175 to 210troops to his/her castle? When one attacks another castle it sets limits to how many troops you can use in the three areas of the castle. Is there a secret to increase ones attacking troop numbers?

It actually depend on the defender's level. So a level 10 can attack a level 70 with like 10,000 troops but the level 70 can like only send 5. Kinda unfair right?

Nope, in fact it is so fair we shouldnt even be thinking about it. Do you really think a lvl 10 can outrun a lvl 70? (Unless they left or is burning hard)
Why would some lvl 70 attack a lvl 10 unless offended anyway?

Starbuck3, maybe have you used the maximum lvl of (EDIT: waves?)

It was just an example...

starbuck did you use the maximum number of waves?

[1714289] Starbuck3 [None] :: Feb. 26, 2014, 2:36 p.m.
So the higher level you are, the higher quality of troops you have and the more attack waves you can do, right?

no i haven't, but what about when you are being attacked. Can you determine the number of wave of attacks on you? The problem are the attacks on me. Seeing such large armies attacking me, how do I battle them when it is 600 to 200 their favor.

It's about 1500. But really, what level 10 would have 1500 troops? That's 3000 food consumption. An hour. Also, it's about 200.

Yes, but the lower level your target is, the fewer troops you can send per wave.

You can. Just figure out the maximum amount of troops someone can send at you per wave. Then divide and round up to the nearest whole number.
