Quark Games forums

So I hadn't been attacked up to this point, nor attacked another city only barbarians since I've slowly been building up to an academy in all three of my worlds. I noticed an incoming attack from a player with double my stats. Even if I coordinate an attack back I noticed their three top players have 11000+ points each and the average active guild member there has 5500 points, which is around double mine. What should I do?

Should run like hell !!

Also their guild has 97k points and the guild I lead has 57k points. What's the best strategy atm?

i would message your attacker. see if they are willing to simply stop attacking or negotiate a truce. possibly negotiate a merger into their guild if you wish. communication is the key to at the very least postpone your demise good luck!

By the time i saw their attack there was only one hour left . They destroyed all my soldiers and three levels of my wall but they also lost 1/5 of their soldiers and I didn't let them loot me too much . Should I still message them on why they attacked me? From what I read on the forums its common courtesy to only really attack dead cities not active players..?

It's a WAR game! There are no courtesies in war. You won't increase your KSA by only attacking barbs and you can grow bigger faster by conquering established cities.

I'm not talking about barbarian cities, I'm talking bout the ones that were abandoned by players who originally downloaded the app then left it to rot. Seems like every guide I read suggests only attacking those. They lost 1/5 of their troops and got 1k and under 1k in every resource, so they didn't gain much benefit. The person didn't even have scholars yet, they were just attacking me so I get set back? Seems kind of malicious to me.

Was most likely a farming attack. Expect more attacks to follow

Simply dodge the attack before it hit your city. Use your resources for upgrade, buy troops, send resources via merchant, send ur armies to nearby barb cities. But at least 2k lancers and sentries then some guards for defense. Then you start buying zergs n knights for offense. Good luck.

Thanks magnum! Very helpful advice (:
