It seems the town I sent the 3K wine was under blockade. This probably happen while the shipment was enroute, since you did not indicate you were under attack.
Anywho, let me know where to resend. I'll be more than happy to send it no charge, as I am planning my vengeance on Squad11 (53:25). Spies are on their way, but from the score, it looks like a sweet target anyway.
# Name: Squad 11
# Town size: 17
# Player: Matt_1863
# Ally: B11
# Total Score:10,597
# Military Score:26,632
# Gold Score:1,276,519 (34,721)
Let me know where you want your shipment.
Just an update, I'm not going to be able to hit this guy tonight, but here is what he has as of tonight
Troops in Squad 11
Unit Quantity
Slinger 10
Swordsman 10
Phalanx 10
Ram 5
Archer 15
Fleets in Squad 11
Ship Quantity
Ram-Ship 7
Ballista Ship 13
So be fairly easy to crack.
For great justice!
Yea, I'd been hitting another one of his colonies for the past few days. He was defense-less at S11 Wine @ 52:25 and his blockade came from Squad 11 @ 53:25. I've asked for my resources to be returned and I'll give him one more day like I promised, but after that I'll get the resources back one way or another.
There's a little randomness in the amount of damage produced. How big were these assault teams? Borderline victory or decisive victory?
I was using my zero mil formation of 10 swords, 5 archers, 1 ram, 1 cook (1 spy inside). The walls were all 60% bonus or less, and I was hitting him with no losses over the past few days. I could take getting beat down by a wall, I guess, but the empty combat report kind of threw me off.
What? Man, I pillage inactives/zero mil scores with 2 swordsmen!
What you sent is way overkill, and there's no way they should have lost...
Are you sure that your attack didn't land at the same time of a previous attack? If you hit a target too closely to one of your previous attacks the battle report will be blank.
I dunno, it's never come up. I guess we'll find out together!

I guess I have a spy in S11 Crystal @ 52:26 as well, which is an undefended with a level 7 port a level 4 town wall no barracks and a level 3 shipyard. Guess I'll hit that and the wine colony a few times tonite while he isn't on with just a gunman or two then break into his capital tomorrow.
I have a spy in every one of his cities!
Update: Still no barracks in defense-less S11 Wine @ 52:25 even after my multiple attacks and all his forces seem to be at his capital as far as I can tell.
At least he tried, can't say I never plagiarized in elementary school when I knew 10x more things about computers and the internet than any of the teachers at my school.
[SNIP]I dunno, it's never come up. I guess we'll find out together![/SNIP]
Sounds like a good time! The one time I've been attacked it was a naval battle only, and I lost, but he didn't blockade me and no attempt was made to pillage. I was disappointed.

I'm Voro over at 15:65. Please don't rape me. And with that out of the way, when should I go about joining a PA alliance? I won't be able to offer much for a while, since I'm only just waiting for Well Digging to finish. I've got crystal native to my island if that matters, but I'm not sure how developed it is. Highest people on this island are a L12 and a L4, so it can't be that developed. Hell, the lumber mill is only L2.
Build 1 ram ship and it is likely that no one will bother you unless you start shit. It takes too much planning to coordinate a blockade and a landing force in my opinion.
Ok Turtle/RU/Darian, I am in negotiations with darklordsgsx for the procurement of a cat poem. I don't know if he will deliver, but I live in hope. The dialogue so far:
I tell you what, I like you, and I like your style. So I will make you an offer to give you some much needed peace of mind. If you can write me a short poem (say 100 words) about the simple joys of cat ownership I'll get Turtleback off your back.
How does this sound to a man of some (not inconsiderable I hope!) literary talent like yourself?

Massing ballistas isn't going to do it, I tried that only to have them get slaughtered by his catapult ships. All of my other towns are building catapult ships but they take forever to finish.
Got co-ords for this guy? I am intrigued
I'm not really asking for help since he has 140k military, but you're welcome to try.

If Honor fucks with you, let me know. Their leader and I are on good terms, I think. He'll get the guy to stop I imagine.
Missed this, I assume you asked him to stop.
I've been pillaging Honor inactives, should that be a problem?

Slowly trying to put together a good cushion of diplomacy points, unfortunately, the only place I still have a lowish level embassy is Rhenius over by former EPA, where it takes me 26 hours to ship marble, grr. I'll get back to you guys on what I'll need there after I finish upgrading my Governor's mansion finally.
I don't think it is feasible to absorb WPAX, as things currently stand, perhaps if the mechanics or costs change in a good way we could, but right now it seems a lot of work just to get all the alliance letters the same. We could get the same effect by putting a note in each alliance's page "allied with XPAX", which wouldn't require you to invest massive resources.

Are you sure that your attack didn't land at the same time of a previous attack? If you hit a target too closely to one of your previous attacks the battle report will be blank.
Not possible. Target was 5 hours away and the waves were 8 hours apart. Well, I guess in Ikariam, anything is technically possible....
Steel Angel mentioned something about the gamma server; I'd like to toss out the reminder that PAers are playing on each of the ikariam.com servers.
Alpha: Darian and Hellbunny in IST
Beta: Everyone in NPAX and WPAX
Gamma: Charlemagne (cmdprmpt), taliesinamicus (Darian), OverlordCuddles (Hellbunny) in PARC
Delta: Darian et al. in PAX; about 17 of us so far; TheCapn is also on the server in another alliance
Epsilon: Tamorlane, Hellbunny et al. in PAX
@Al: Fill away. I don't want to see anyone not us take slots that open up.
A moment of silence for Bruised, who has disappeared from the server.
Also, I fully expect Akira to be deleted on the 17th, unless he returns before then. That would open up a slot on NPAX marble, 24:22. So if you're looking to expand soon, might want to time it to grab that slot.

I guess I have a spy in S11 Crystal @ 52:26 as well, which is an undefended with a level 7 port a level 4 town wall no barracks and a level 3 shipyard. Guess I'll hit that and the wine colony a few times tonite while he isn't on with just a gunman or two then break into his capital tomorrow.

Someone complained about me? Why?
Carry on.
That boy won't be blockading anyone for a while.
He withdrew, don't attack him.
That's my hope.
I've placed some of my marble for sale on 24:22 in order to fund the movement of my troops to my new capital.
Missed this, I assume you asked him to stop.
I've been pillaging Honor inactives, should that be a problem?
I miss my inactive target... I should have beaten him more when I had the chance.
Either that or somewhere in WPAX, but I dunno whether absorbing 20+ guys is super feasible.
Not possible. Target was 5 hours away and the waves were 8 hours apart. Well, I guess in Ikariam, anything is technically possible....

Time to build a second Grand Army on my Ares colony.
If there isn't any objection, I'd like to fill it.
Alpha: Darian and Hellbunny in IST
Beta: Everyone in NPAX and WPAX
Gamma: Charlemagne (cmdprmpt), taliesinamicus (Darian), OverlordCuddles (Hellbunny) in PARC
Delta: Darian et al. in PAX; about 17 of us so far; TheCapn is also on the server in another alliance
Epsilon: Tamorlane, Hellbunny et al. in PAX
@Al: Fill away. I don't want to see anyone not us take slots that open up.
A moment of silence for Bruised, who has disappeared from the server.
Also, I fully expect Akira to be deleted on the 17th, unless he returns before then. That would open up a slot on NPAX marble, 24:22. So if you're looking to expand soon, might want to time it to grab that slot.
I should probably apply to NPAX too since I have an embassy and all.
I think I'm gonna upgrade my palaces/govorners offices BEFORE planting the new colony. Good idea?

The impact of corruption is not high enough to offset the growth and additional resources you'll gain from getting the colony in and expanding.
