Title: Can't attack people with 0 troops
Post by: Zildjan on July 11, 2012, 05:33:53 pm

Sorry if this is answered somewhere else but if so I couldn't find it...

A couple times now I've tried to attack someone with 0 troops and some meager  2-3 crates, not much I know buy hey a guy's gotta feed his family somehow.  Anyway, when I catch the person, instead of starting a battle, my character just stops and my prey continues moving away.  I thought, attacking a fellow with 0 troops, they get 1 troop assigned to them and the battle is scheduled.  Is there some rule that a person with 0 troops must have a minimum number of crates to be attacked?

Lol, sorry I made that confusing.   I have 49 troops and have had multiple successful battles with them  :)  This is just the first time I've tried to steal from poor helpless peasants with no troops to defend them  :twisted:

hmmm, well then there should be no problem attacking.
unless he just had an battle within an hour.
other than that there can't be any other reason than a bug.

Interesting, well I know at least one hadn't been in a battle because I was following him for a few hours before I caught him.  Well if it's a glitch, someone important needs to contact chadz to look into this.  I demand recompense for my escaped crates!!!

Not 100% sure, but if ur target has changed hes movement route u would have to make ur avatar attack him again. Otherwise ur char would move to the place where the battle should have been when u had first clicked to attack him.

Why would you attack someone with 0 troops in the first place? it's a waste of time unless they have crates....

As stated above, they had crates.  And I wanted them.

All 3 of them?

You'll actually craft more goods then you gain by attacking them.

Zapper this guy isnt part of any clan/alliance so he has to craft mainly on towns/casttles, and those wont net you 18 good's per day.

Because obviously there aren't places with 100% crafting chance he can join. Oh wait, there is. Come to Ilvia if you want to. Just mind the mountains, rivers and angry moose.

Besides. Remember you lose minimum 24 hours. The time to get to him and going back is also lost time.
