8 man army attacking village of Ruluns and no autolose

[Keshian]

Is ee a battle between 8 men atatcking a village with 500 population.  How did the autolose not kick in??

[Blondin]

May be it's a raid only?

chadz said that once you attack a village (i guess you can't raid a town?) you have 2 options : attack for control or raid.
If you attack for control you must face pop+army, if you raid you only face army.
I don't know what happens if there is no army (must be the case).


ps : if you want to make a partnership for a raid, i'm your man!

Aaaah, that may explain why the battle list shows now 8 vs 0, while originally it was 8 vs 500. We have left no army there. If it really is a raid and the Blondin's statement is true - it is going to be an extremely easy, although quite unprofitable raid 

It is interesting though, cause as defenders we had no warning if it is a raid or regular attack.  The battle type is "Siege". We will see. Did anyone try raid before?

EDIT: I can confirm - it was a raid.

How did it go? What happened? What did you lose/win?
