Topic: [288174] Foreign Castles can't attack them

[-288174] Wyndance (US1) [None] :: Oct. 21, 2015, 12:16 p.m.

I get a message stating that an equipment item that increases the unit limit was used up.  And to reduce the troop count on the flanks.

Even if I do reduce the flanks I can't send out an attack on Foreign Castles.  I can attack Baron Castles with no problems.

Is this a bug?  Or what exactly is the problem.  What equipment item was used up?

(Now I can see the other posts on this issue didn't before I wrote this)

what is this?

There are too many units on one flank.
An equipment item which increases the unit limit was used up.
Remove troops in order to attack.

There are two bugs:
1. The F.C level on the map is correct, (shows as levels 21,24,33 etc.) but when entering the attack all of them shows as level 50.
2. Bug number two is that the distance of all of them is always 50, which is not true (!)

Well, if your not as screwed as i am.. Trial and error
ill demonstrate below


LVL 33 enemy










In this case, dont add more than 40 men on each flank 







There that worked for me. Nor more .. and def not less.. Heroes can then improve or decrease the numbers you can have. Test that your self

[4168291] AmazingTaZ (SKN1) [None] :: Oct. 21, 2015, 4 p.m.

Extra test:
Got a Hero that increase flanks by 28%

Normaly she works fine..
Now it meens for the game i can add 5 to 40 ..

They screwed up their code since last hotfix (

First, that bug I do not know about. It’s probably just a small bug I wouldn’t worry. Two, that’s how the foreigners work. all castles are 50 away similar to all other events that cause castles or towers to pop up. for example all nomad camps are two away no matter where they are.

This needs to be fixed right away!  We are losing out on valuable rewards and glory and I can't support my alliance at all!

[4168653] emperor2.0 (SKN1) [None] :: Oct. 21, 2015, 6:45 p.m.

[4168687] SuperLiam3 (US1) [None] :: Oct. 21, 2015, 7 p.m.

I have tried to use less then is on the flank and that does not work at all.

[4168695] Agent 1 (SKN1) [None] :: Oct. 21, 2015, 7:02 p.m.

when will this problem been fix ???
many small players and ally will be set back on this.

i hope we can beginn to attack FC tomorrow.

I can't attack a foreign castle but they sent out an attack on me. I lost 687 men to them. That's not fair.
You people had better fix this problem and quick. there are members of my alliance who are going to stop playing this game because of this problem.

[4168803] Beagle10 (US1) [None] :: Oct. 21, 2015, 7:56 p.m.

Put all you can in the stronghold, attack loads of robber baron castles so that you fill up your hospital, then send the rest off on very long distance attacks - 12 hour round trips will help.

[4168997] Ranger21 (US1) [None] :: Oct. 21, 2015, 9:20 p.m.

They are systematically (randomly) attacking all the members of my alliance.  It is a constant.....one right after another.  They seem to be sending in hordes of attackers, killing off armies and destroying buildings.  Uggggh

[4169010] sigismund (ASIA1) [None] :: Oct. 21, 2015, 9:24 p.m.

Changes made for this latest version of the foreigner attacks are obviously buggy.  I am having exactly the same issues as those described above -- I won over 4000 troops over the last two days and now cannot use them because I have the issue described about too many troops on the flank. This is the message I receive when I attempt to launch an attack. http://prntscr.com/8trys6

[4169051] Malorie Knox (US1) [US1] :: Oct. 21, 2015, 9:49 p.m.

A different bug here:  All FCs show as 50 units away, per usual.  And when I go to run espi, they all show the same base time for travel, but when I add coins to speed things up, all of a sudden, the times are different.  1:45 to a foreign invader close to me, 2 mins+ for foreign castle further away.
