    Getting attacked by a random islandmate without provocation

    Hey, I'm getting attacked right now by some idiot that just decided it would be fun. His stats are as follows:

    Playername: DeusVult
    Coords: 80:82
    City name: Rhodes
    Alliance: The templars TKA

    I'm kinda new at the whole military aspect of this game so any advice or military support is appreciated.

    He's alpha.




    He who believes he knows the ending of things before they begin is either a very wise person or an idiot. Regardless, he is unhappy for he hast drove a knife into the heart of wonder. -Osten Ard

    Good news is he's in my area. Bad news is he's about the same size as me.
    We both have over 200k military score so it'd be one hell of a battle.
    I'll ask him to stop attacking and see what happens.

    I got 5 spies on the way to 2 of his towns.

    Re: Getting attacked by a random islandmate without provocation

    He's got a lvl 5 wall and a lvl 8 trading port and 1.4 million in gold so I couldn't wait and tried to send 20 upgraded catapult ships to clear the harbor for an attack. There seems to be a bug with the new version update though because I can't seem to blockade anyones harbor right now. I tried from 4 colonies and it won't let me.
    Anyone else have that problem? I have action points but it won't let me select ships.
    I'll keep trying because I really, really want to attack him now that I've seen his town.

    Ok, he has:
    10 phalanx
    65 gunsman
    1 catapult
    40 archers

    no ships

    10 slingers
    30 swordsman
    101 phalanx
    1 catapult
    1 ram
    3 cooks
    3 doctors
    12 gyrocopters
    55 archers
    (I still have 2 days for gunpowder)

    Re: Getting attacked by a random islandmate without provocation

    He said "i only attacked him once i was bored"

    So I said "I'm bored too. lol I was gonna wait a few days until my gunpowder research was finished but this is a good way to clean out my old troops. Might as well give them a soldiars death. I never thought I'd be the guy bringing a knife to a gunfight. lmao"

    I don't want him demolishing his trade port or building a ram ship or anything so I'm hoping he'll think he's gonna win and let the battle play out.

    Re: Getting attacked by a random islandmate without provocation

    Will do.
    He's online right now so I'm afraid he's gonna send backup from other Islands so I sent an extra...
    10 slinger
    5 sword
    25 phalanx
    1 cook
    2 gyrocopter
    10 archer

    Should be a fun battle unless he builds a ramship and turns me around. It still wont let me send blockades anywhere.

    I just moved a spy twice fast just to get him caught and then sent a message saying "damn, ya caught him! I wanted to see if you really have guns or not"
