Even I can't get that much from a 15 attack. The most I got was barely 97,000. I have level 3 spying but so far I suck at that no matter how many tools I have. I have spied on a variety of people probably like 30 spy attempts. Only ONCE did it ever work. Every other time it failed and I always get a few spies executed. Yet people spy on me and always suceed and I never catch and execute them. It's funny how people can spy on me all they want and always suceed but when I spy I always fail. I had 20 spies at one point and went and spied on different people today. I even tried a few people with 1 soldier in the army. Every stinkin time it fails and I am now down to 5 spies. I honestly think I should forget the spying options since im obviously never going to sucessfully spy. All that ever happens is I get caught and people get executed.
I have enough men on attack. I attack people of equal and lesser strength since I win usually and get easy gold. I have tried attacking stronger people and all it does is fail and it makes them mad and they and their friends attack me and I lose lots of gold. The only reason I am on here right now is because I am waiting for KOC to update again. With my income I'll get enough money to buy one of those Excalibur things.

Oh and I did try that strategy life. Several times in fact. It only works like 5% of the time. It almost always failes and backfires on me no matter what. As I said it usually results in people getting their friends and this big group attacks me. All my money gets stolen and my army takes casualties. If I'm not mistaken some of my weapons et sabotaged too. It's just a little ridiculous that no matter what my attack and spy attempts always fail, yet when someone attacks or spies on me, they always suceed. No matter what items I have.

You know....I think I am gonna quit spying and trying to sabotage. I just tried spying on some new person. I tried to spy 5 times, then tried 2 sabotage jobs and it all failed. This is getting on my nerves and is definitely ridiculous. I have level 3 spy covert whatever upgrade. I would expect a few spy attempts to work. No they all fail. Now I have 2 stinking spies left. Well, they're useless I may as well just reassign them to attack or defense, at least they'll be more useful there.
I know these kinda games are supposed to be a challenge to win. I dont really care if I win or lose. It does get really annoying when no matter what you do you always lose and never win in attacking or spying. Cause thats what happens to me. Everyone attacks me they suceed i have no more gold and weapons are getting destroyed. Oh sure let me spy on you but please let the system be rigged so I fail every time no matter how many spies and tools I have.

Perhaps you should stop trying to sabotage my stuff, too.
What's the point in spying anyway? If you just pick on the little guys, there's no need to spy.

Well, you don't need to actively spy, but having a few spies so that you can see people's treasuries is really nice. That way you won't attack someone who only has 10,000 gold.
And kid, I've never succeeded at spying. I've already stoped trying. Once, I tried to spy one a guy with an army size of 0, and I had three of my spies executed.
Now, about the strategy. Try to only attack people with huge masses of money. It's more effective that way. And don't save up. I have never been attacked, because I never have more than 100,000 gold on me when I'm not on. (Well, I rarely do, anyway.) So, no one bothers to attack me. Also, since I only attack people who have immense amounts of money, most of them haven't been on in a month or more.
Now, DB, are Kaji and yildiz still bothering you?

Nah. They were happy with stealing 30,000 each when I had 50,000 to start.
...anyway, what page do you look at/search for? And what kind of damage do the opponents do?
EDIT: Keep in mind that I do 17000 ish damage
Also, have any of you jokingly attacked a massively superior force yet?

I dont actively spy. I just spy on random people wheter they are weak or strong and it always fails. Sometimes I attack weaker people that have loads of money saved up. I never log off with that much money anyways. I buy stuff or train units or something. Every time I attack stronger people I fail too. I try attacking them with 1 attack and sometimes it works. I then go to do a 15 attack and lose miserably. Anyways I try my best here.

Weird. In that case, attack weaker people with tons of money.
And when I say actively spy, I mean doing anything with your spies other than just letting them sit around. Which is what I mostly do with mine. I should probably spy a few people now, though. Anyway, active spying is actualy spying on someone. Inactive spying is having a high enough spy rating to see how much money people have.

Yeah thats happened a lot to me too DB. I lose in a 1 attack so I see my computer had a low damage rating on me. I do a 15 attack and still lose.
Ok so Im gonna have inactive spies. Just sitting there so I can view treasurys.

Don't worry about some, or even most of them, being unarmed. Just make sure that you've got some awesome weapons.
DB, I look around page 1800 for the people I attack. They do anywhere from 2,000 to 1,000,000 damage there, depending on who you attack. Usually around 15,000 to 20,000 though.

Ok...more help needed!
My defense kind of sucks, but yor strategies involve a good attacking force. Which should I concentrate on?

Attack. And spend all your money every day. That way, no one will bother attacking you. It's working with me. I've only ever been attacked twice, and even then, only for 15,000. Basically, you are going to need a lot of Blackpowder Missles. Fast. To get this done, I suggest attacking people with tons of money (no less than 500,000) on lower pages than you. Their defence tends to be lower than your attack that way.

Ah, Ok.
EDIT: Does anyone want to gain vengeance for me?
His name is Lobo_Fragger. He sucks, but he stole 101,000 from me. I could have a Walled Town by now if it weren't for him.
He's easy, so if you had a spare turn, you can milk him dry if you want.

Anyway, I'm working back up again...

That strategy worked pretty well today for me lifebaka. I attacked some guy that had like 900,000+ gold and like 200 soldiers. When I did attack only like 20 had weapons and stuff. He was human too by the way. I did like 150,000 damage he did like 130,000 so he had some decent weapons but I beat him.
Another guy had less soldiers then that and less money but I did a 15 attack and I got like 700,000 money. I upgraded siege tech to ladders. I got a blackpowder missile. I got a bunch of spy tools and some sentry tools. A couple miscellaneous attack and defense items. I trained a lot of soldiers in attack, defense and spies. In all I made about 1,500,000 bucks. Pretty good job I'd say. Since my attack got a big boost from that missile I may just go and try to attack more stronger people that have about the same if not a few more soldiers then me.

Aw...whenever I get money, this one guy will steal it from me.
We're pretty evenly matched...we can both attack and steal from each other easily. It's just he steals more.

Oh, and why are you only an officer of Kaji_No_Shi, Kid? I mean, even I am ranked higher than he is.
We should all revolt. And make LB our commander!
