Hello all,
If I take over a outpost with open doors can it be done without a fieght.
And what if the troops of this post (attacking army) is on a trip to some one else. Does it disapear or do I have to fieght it agian.

Thanks for the reply in advance

If the outpost has armed citizens from dwellings you will have to fight but they are really weak but if they have a open gate it only means the defense goes down. And if the army is fighting somewhere else you can still take it but the men that went fighting will come back to the base to take it back.
The citizens defense stat is 9.

You can't open gates on a capture attack, so if they open gates to normal attacks your capture attack will still hit them. Not sure what happens if troops are out when you attack, maybe someone else knows?

@js04625 - I'm not 100% sure you know what you are talking about...
