Evony- defeating a t1 trap.

[@pictureframe1]

we came across a 1 man farm alliance in battlefield a few months ago, just one f2p k35 with 6b power, and he brought all his farms in with him. He had nearly a billion t1 horse, which was the funniest thing I had seen at the time. He was points positive on our k40 until the end, when our k40 took his final 3b power in one hit, but even then he might've still been positive.

[@someoneelse1904]

I wonder, then, whether it’s worth having flat refines on a secondary range general for these scenarios (or maybe the assistant gen and you can just switch the assistant and main around depending on the situation).

[@4ce5bf154]

I don't think you could call this a win though, you double his power with better buffes and still took couple rallies and a lot of solo attacks...

[@calebkelechi4517]

What I do with my alliance is that we don't attack players with lots of T1 mounted troops with ground directly. We do about 2-3 Archer rally,it wipes out all those layers then we proceed with a ground rally

[@bpp5507]

Whoever came up with this is absolutely brilliant 👏 to address a different topic, @Genghis I've heard you mention "Ekaterina's Garden" several times now since I started following you but never seen or heard of it. But just a few minutes ago tho, I logged into one of my secondary accounts and had the privilege of actually seeing this event first hand. Its possible that it's only available for newer servers up to a certain age

[@jesseleal1388]

Very educational. You kind of flew through your small range layers. But we missed the first part, the layers on the first two siege attacks

[@christianrevilloza205]

As a t1 user, he just testing the def with few healing coz its not SVS, we dint waste healing speed ups from BoG/BoC. We just want that 1200 sweet spot that's it.

[@Giamatty]

and with that all the low and medium coiners were smacked down again with no hope of evening the odds 🤣🤣🤣 ….and the major coiners cried for more presets

[@suzanneulinski1514]

Ugh. I’m so happy you filled that rally to zero me 😂. We do love our spudly ❤

he has a nice keep id love him to come over and teach our guys how to build that

All he had to do was heal 1k layers of everything and that would have changed those reports considerably

[@djschwartz1380]

My buffs probably ain't that good to solo a t1 though I have had little bit of success. I'll have to check to see if I still have the reports

[@DM-en7hk]

So, to sum up, you beat a guy with 5x your march’s strength AND a t1 trap of way more than a hundred million mounted troops by: 1. Rallying against his bigger troops (who weren’t ghosted) with troops they were weak against; 2. Then targeting his t1 trap with archers from t7 to t12 because the percentages are better than flat refines at those levels. Questions: 1. Is that right? 2. Why not use higher archers? 3. Someone once told me, my keep could be taken down with ground troops. It ended up happening. I don’t get why, since my archers and tower are formidable. Why does ground march tend to work? Thanks Genghis

[@gamingaddictswithgenghis]

It overpowers. Ground is slow. So if it can make it to the front line relatively unscathed it will break through and kill everything. But it’s buffs and march size need to be op

[@DM-en7hk]

@@gamingaddictswithgenghisthanks Genghis. Does the ground march only come in as a cleanup crew after a siege bomb? Or can you send it in as a first wave?

[@English2Elvish]

There was ALOT of T1 traps in my Chalons match. Unreal defense, one guy I just gave up, exhausted out too much. It's really good.

[@nickyos8640]

I'm lucky to have an alliance member with a brilliant T1 cavalry defense. It is fun to watch him (K33 and 331m) win defenses with no reins against K37+ players

[@lanas2728]

@@English2Elvish what was the loophole? 😅

[@deandick2496]

His t1 were exposed cause you’ve taken out all other layers so that’s how you won He should heal his lower tier (t10-t1) after every hit he takes

[@DG-mk2nr]

When you siege killed all his high level siege, would you say it’s because the battle mechanism made your siege target his siege before targeting his t1 horse? Cuz if you sent a range March, you archers would just get stuck in the t1 layer because archers prioritize mounted I think. So siege prioritizes siege then?

[@jesseexner222]

Siege targets back to front. So siege first

[@iNCApacitated]

Why have such a large T1 mounted meat cushion vs an equal distribution amongst the all the T1 troops (ground, range, mounted, siege)?

[@gamingaddictswithgenghis]

Cause you can build more of them for less.

[@IamEnygma]

@@gamingaddictswithgenghis Then why not T1 ground since they are the cheapest? Why do they invest in T1 mounts?

[@b3rzerk837]

@@IamEnygma because cav have higher base attack, and they're much faster. They can get involved with enemy troops much quicker. I could be wrong, but I think flat cav attack refines are also higher than ground. I know flat Cav attack is 1k, and I think ground is maybe 500 per refine.

[@zakoh85]

Everyone who posted an answer is wrong. Having many types of T1 troops is not effective because you can't refine equipment effectively for all four troop types. Select only one troop type and refine the wall general equipment accordingly. Without refining equipment, these T1 are useless.

[@Corcioch]

@@zakoh85 The troop type you select does make a difference, answer above you is not wrong.

[@shckwve645]

Why people build t1 Mounted only , why don't other types... I don't understand 🤔

[@gamingaddictswithgenghis]

Focus on one

[@zakoh85]

I am a lite coiner who relies on a wall of T1 for defense. I have to tell you that there are tricks to counter your strategy, but there is little I can do against someone with 2000% attack buffs. This is ridiculous.

[@gamingaddictswithgenghis]

Ya true. Are the tricks ghost certain troops?

[@zakoh85]

@@gamingaddictswithgenghis Since the refines are for low level troops, the top level troops have no buffs, so your mounted or ranged march troops have to be ghosting. but there is another trick

[@barraberson]

Hey! Can you share his debuffs? I think he lost his sub city troops in some moment, so basically lost debuff & layers... Nice educational video btw

[@ryanjoor6397]

T1's are a waist of rss's, 20-30b in order to get to 100m,what you couldve done is just built a better keep. Than to use gems & refinement stones couldve had some really nice % buffs on your keep to be able to save your troops

[@b3rzerk837]

They really should not make solo siege viable lol. They would never change it, but one way would be to make koryo bracers say "in city siege range" and give it a much higher % value than Abbas bracers.

Just send ranged rallies

Horse is better I think. But depends on the trap style
