Hi all.........First post. .......Seriously addicted. Great game and looking forward to playing it further.
I waited and read as much as I could before posting. (Rub some noobiness off..lol) Still unsure about morale.
I am about 1200 points and the only active player on my island. Two cities about 500 pts have not played for days. Rest are 175 - 275
I have cleared all 6 swords from each city except the two 500 pointers. I consistently raid these cities for res. Sometimes I will send a 40 archer unit and 1 or 2 get killed. Other times none die? These are even on the 175 point cities that do not have walls. The only units that never die are hoplites but they are niot efficient looters. (I just now got horsies so will use them going forward..yay).
Anyway...sry for wall of text..but I can't figure out why sometimes one or two units die and sometimes they don't. I have lost about a 100 units this way. I figure I have gained about a plus 25% resources to replace them. So I am still ahead but I have to rebuild units. Seems strange to me. Is it because I raid with low morale sometimes?
Sometimes I like to send out three separate units to raid at the same time. Archers, slings and hops. (Tried swords..ugh) Should I just build horsies and raid with them?
Anyhoooo....some of the posts and guides were so rewarding, I appreciate those that did them and try to help us noobs. I have my own story for the "Noobiest mistake you made." post. Thx for reading
Wasn't sure if this should be in question forum or here so let mod decide.
