Good post yet again AP. Limitless has no troops and no wall last i heard so will prob drop out on top 20 now.
The rest i think your spot on with i think
The rest i think your spot on with i think
I'm glad you didn't do the top 10 12 hours earlier when we were rank 10, might of confused you but would of made you laugh... I upgrade the mines and Harry upgrades the buidlings he thinks are prettiest...
25/26/20, 18 Hq with a high wall?
I doubt there will be anyone who will noble before the peace break. Nobleman requires too many res + you have to upgrade your warehouse also. But I am sure we will some some nice noblings just after the xmas break...huge battles there
Edit: My spreadsheet still tells us that we need 2m+ res before we'll be sending nobles out so I'm hoping to noble my 2nd village on Harry's first birthday...
1 thing I can promise u is I will not be nobling an easy (soft) target unless something goes seriously wrong!
You're assuming people will be nobling with trains; which would be pretty stupid considering the res involved and the 500ms attack gap. A single noble would cost 223k res overall not including acad (273k res including acad). 30/30/30 mines produce 2400/2400/2400 res per hour, which would mean 38 hours to get enough resources to build academy, mint 1 coin and build one noble. This is not taking into account the unbalance in res required. Clay is the most required resource, 105k clay needed needed for acad, coin and noble which would be 43.75 hours with a level 30 clay mine. Still under 2 days for 1 noble, faster if you know how to use your market.
But, you are correct that a noble train will take a long time, requiring 455k wood, 525k clay and 460k iron (1.44 mil res by my count), which would take 218.75 hours with 30/30/30 mines; over 9 days of sitting there and saving resources. None of my calculations take into account the limited amount we can haul, which would shave a few hours of each of my calculations.
Looking at the example of lionheart; as he's closest to acad (HQ 20 Smithy 20), and I make out he has 20/20/18 mines, which produce 530/530/391 res pr hour. A noble and acad, a mentioned earlier, costs 83k/105k/85k. That will take him 156.5 hours/198 hours/217.5 hours. Taking into account farming, you can currently haul 21k res per day. Over the course of him waiting, I'll take an average haul limit of 27k res per day. That's 9k of each res roughly a day, 375 per hour. Taking that into account, it would take him 111 hours, just over 4.5 days to a noble. This is, of course, not taking into accounts troops or building anything else during the time he's waiting for nobles...

2. jmaxspeed~ New to the top twenty compared to my last post, so 18+ ranks with a 110 point lead over rank 3. Nobled yesterday morning, another internal, but this time a 3k village. Again, easy conquer and no troop losses. His main village has HQ 20, Smithy 20, Academy and 25/26/24 mines and his ennoblement has HQ 20, Smithy 20, Academy and 25/26/24 mines. The similarity in build orders suggests one player was instructing the other as to what to build and when and the ennoblement was planned for some time.
4. limitless~ Down 3 ranks from my last post, having lost his title of highest mines within 2 hours of my post. 31 point lead over rank 5. Has 25/26/20 mines (again, unsure on iron), currently in the process of his HQ rush, currently at HQ 18. However, he seems to have lost 9 points 2 hours after points for his HQ 18 finished. Demolishing a building, wall knocked down or his neighbours got cats? I don't know. If troop losses accompanied his point loss, could set him back a bit in nobling compared with, say, FatIgor.
[la]That isn't something to brag about, to be honest. Your overly high OD and early rush to cats wasted resources better spent on resource pits. While rushing smithy wasn't necessarily a bad choice, you wasted any advantage it may have given you by wasting your troops and building unnecessary cats. You also stunted the growth of a player you could have allowed to grow further in hopes of having a better noble target than what he is today. I assume you have your Academy, with mines somewhere near 21/21/21. Unlike the players who rushed Academy early enough to have nobled by now, and unlike the players who waited to get their mines to 30/30/30, you took a path that landed you with neither an early noble nor high mines, and on top of that you left a nice noble target which hasn't grown in over a week that many other players may have noticed and might even get to before you have a chance.
So... congratulations. You took the cheap path and took out a player with greater skill than you so early on it is not only a dirty tactic (but hey, this is a war game, so all is fair) but one that left you more vulnerable than is wise.
Now, you can be happy about your accomplishment, but don't grow an ego you don't deserve: arrogance doesn't fit you, you have to better understand the consequences of your actions first.[/la]
