scholar arrival to guild taken city

[Salmonious]

If I have a scholar attack in route and a city is taken over by another guild member before its arrival, what happens to my scholar?

It will probably go back to you since you cannot attack a guild member.

DanielJ: Not unless the code has been *very* recently updated. Units en route attack, whether the city is now occupied by a guildmate or even if it is now occupied by yourself.

I've had numerous cities where I've sent 5 attack waves and the city fell on the 4th wave. The 5th scholar will either lower the starting loyalty from 25% down to 5% or so (thereby expanding the time it is recovering) or will take the city over again which loses me that scholar.

I've also had more than a couple cities that I've attacked with a guildmate (either together or unknowingly). He takes it, then I take it, then his next wave hits and he takes it, etc.

You can't *send* an attack at a guild mate. But once it is en route then it will hit.
