Topic: [289364] Troops and Time

Troop recruitment.
For me this usually takes an hr for a fairly decorated castle to recruit 5x two-handed swords men + even more for veterans, and the events that come on usually require a lot of soldiers *Nomads/Samurai/Foreigners, etc* but for some reason i never have the time. I think there should be an improvement for this, because players like my self who aren't in big alliances  usually spend days recruiting, then suddenly 1 attack and a failed defense ruins it all. So all i ask is that there be a faster,easier and cheaper way to win soldiers ( like an easy contest, or just even shorten the time to recruit to 5 mins for 5x two-handed swords men or 15 min for veterans. I don't expect this but please do something.

Cheers

If it takes you an hour for 5 two handed swordsmen, you need more PO.

what is you're PO?

a high PO castle with level 5 keep and walls and all that for high protection, i was able to recruit 5 vets at around 30-40 mins. with a high level feast, that was cut down to around 14. using vet swords, great for defense, i could get a couple hundred in an hour (recruit 1 at a time and do the free plus 1, gets you 2 for the price of 1. needs to have people online to help you for that though)

also, recruit more defense, or keep your troops somewhere safe when offline. people typically leave RVs alone, so keeping your troops in your RVs may work. keep them in a strong castle belonging to someone in your alliance, send them on an attack far away.

if your castle is full of troops, keep recruiting at it and then just send the troops to a castle that does not have them

do the recruit 1 at a time thing every chance possible. you still get troops 2X as fast, even if its not as fast as vet swords.
