1. Where'd the password go?

2. Not like we'll have any spies, anyway.

3. Lets discuss our battle plans and such in this thread/forum.

DOn't overlook that in the chat window we have an alliance channel upon which we can speak.

I'm spamming alliance invites. Found Leisher along the way. He's down and to the left of me.

Do we want to advertise the message board in our alliance description? If so, I would delete the public lou threads as we are talking about multi accounting and stuff.

I'd say keep them off the forum. Can't register and can't post, anyway.

We could create a 2nd forum. I created oneat TheCatt.com to test out phpbb.

Didn't want to say this on the open alliance channel because it was too embarrassing...

Just got annihilated trying to plunder a 217 point city next door to me.

I can't seem to pull up the numbers I sent... but it was around 50 berzerkers, 30 rangers, 20 magic users lvl 1 and 2, and about 20 knights.

"None of your units survived!

200.0990% morale
100% Night Protection"

No idea what that means.

On the bright side, I instantly achieved my "kill 50 enemy units" quest. So there's that.

I guess I need to send more troops next time and whittle him down. He has been afk for a week... his city hasn't gained points in all that time. He has to have a lot of resources stacked up.

I'm building up for another attack. Will post actual numbers, and results.

Been reading the forums, and here is some advice... you may not want to build a castle until you have lvl 10 walls, full towers, and maxed out on troops. Peeps are getting attacked by 400k units, and apparently it is legit. All they can do to you before you build a castle is plunder you, I believe. With a castle they will end you and you will be done.

So the castle just opens up that particular city right, not all cities?

I plan on building a full hammer city (all wheat) to base my army out of. Figure that's how they are getting the 400k.

And TarMann is going anvil (defense) to help protect us.

Unless you buy ministers and stuff, that should get a quite a bit of resources.

Yeah, I bought the minister pack already to see how well that works. Already filled up the 16-bldg queue. And now the server is offline.

Thanks for breaking the server.

This guy just got hit my over 500k berzerkers. He suspects cheating, though, as supposedly there is a hard 400k limit.

I scouted out my neighbor who was annihilating my attacking armies.... dude has 17million+ berzerkers in a 214 point city.

I sent that screenshot to the "found a cheater" email. I like to daydream that this is the reason the server went down. They are deleting him.

Two of those bunny people have 4 cities already on us5, which has to be impossible without cheating.

Peeps are talking about that on the forums.

If they don't fix the cheaters... I wouldn't throw any more money at this game if I were you.

I bet no one is working on Sunday night and the server won't be back until the morning.

Crazy.

Well, the game is hosted in Germany, so they're 5 hours or so ahead, but, who knows. If I had just launched a game, I'd have people monitoring 24x7

Did not know it was Germany.

I expect better from Bavarian.
