I wonder how someone is able to do something like this. They must be running some sophisticated program to hack into the game from their device. I know it's a little unlikely, but if that is true, then cheating within the game is the least of our problems. Security, privacy etc., become genuine...

Yes, this has been happening for ages, but lately there's been an increase. It's not always good, since I had a single machine gun that slipped inside an enclosed chamber (with no walls), and it got stuck there until it was able to break down a level 11 wall, which took ages. It happens mostly...

The sad thing is that this is trivial for programmers. The knapsack problem, the hungarian algorithm, etc., are all sophisticated ways of doing this for general problems, but even simple logic will suffice since there are only 3 barracks. It just reeks of incompetence and laziness that this...

Raiders need distractors in the form of low-resource targets such as houses and enemy defenders, so that there is still some element of strategy in the form of rallying etc. There is no fun in deploying a bunch of raiders that go straight for the resources. Looting needs to be somewhat challenging.

I disagree that both teams should get full war loot in case of a tie. By definition, a tie should be less rewarding than a win. If you find that you're max starring, but also giving up max stars, perhaps it's time to put a concerted effort into defensive upgrades across the alliance board...

1. Here's a strategy for you: Fire off a training blessing, play for an hour, make 4 attacks, gain 4 medals. Log off, sleep, and wake up to your defense bring you 20+ medals per attack. You can even induce this by leaving your mills and markets unprotected (or gasp if your really want it, leave...

Agreed. The cards cause the whole mechanics to be weird. I do understand their draw as they inject a novelty and variety to the game, but I'd vote to take them out.

Here, let's see if we can figure this out. I'm back-calculating from the stats of my St. Chamond Tank (IA level) Buff Percentage HP Final Stats 17160 French 0.2 14300 Versailles 0.1 13000 Standing Army...

Good eyes! Even if it was a 31 hour gap (from the crown offer 12d5h to 10d22h), one can reasonably assume that no upgrades that specifically buffed tanks could have been completed, so it had to have been the blessing. Well done!

Personally I don't understand all these cosmetic requests, but that's just me. It's a game, none of this affects game mechanics. I could play with any nation the game offers as long as the nation's game mechanics suit my strategy.

Yes, you can use the wiki if you need this information.

I agree that the ratio is off, but I think this is by design to make oil a scarcer resource (by leaving a higher percentage up for grabs from the refinery, losing a little when you're filled to the brim etc.)

Lol, if you want to see it that way, then yes, I suppose you're correct. It really hinges on the semantics of the word "extra". :)

Point being they did not get an *extra* house. They just unlocked a house earlier than everybody else. Their argument with the estate is valid. Tomorrow if they release the cold war age, and everybody can build the estate as a building for 12 million gold (or whatever), then nobody who purchased...

The stacking of the percentages as you have done (((50*1.1)*1.1)*1.3) is correct and how it has been done always. I say that from the Versailles buff which stacks on top of the Acropolis buff. So the final bonus with three separate bonuses of 10%, 10%, and 30% is 57.3% by stacking (78.65/50 or...

Well intuitively a good medal system should be harder to climb as you reach the upper echelons, and surprise, surprise, the current medal system does that. :)

I have a sneaky suspicion (sorry can't prove it), that all their counters are wrong (or at least not working precisely as advertised) in some form or other. Biggest example I could find: the gathering blessing achievement counter.

That's not how it works. Everyone else is right. I think you're referring to the Versailles + Acropolis health buff which indeed accumulates. Discounts have always been applied separately.

Thank you very much for the kind invite, but I don't plan on being a part of an alliance for a while. I get way too involved in wars and general alliance business, and I do not have that kind of time to devote to the game right now. Work, life etc., means I'm super busy and don't get time to...

You need to be in the higher leagues to get oil, like kingdom (perhaps) and above.
