Topic: [334100] Are Foreign Castles considered NPCs, or Castle lords, or both??

Thanks for helping me out. :-) I want to know because my heroes on my commanders say things about NPCs, or castle lords and I'm not sure what FCs fall under.

Good question.  At first they tried to palm these off as actual players in other servers. Then they admitted they are "simulations" of actual players.  You get glory for hitting FL and BC which is what you get hitting actual players.

But does that mean you use comm with attacking players bonus or do you use NPC bonus?  Nobody knows, I have been wondering this as well.

The game treats all foreign castles and blood crows as castle lords. If you have a hero that gives you -30% wall for castle lords and -60% gate  for NPCs and you attack a fl/bloodcrow your commander will give you -30% wall only

Mike explained it perfectly. I suggest you read the post above yours.

its very easy to actually find out as mentioned before, just use a commander that has increased troop numbers vs npc or players....

Also, great name
