I know dikzak wel from the Dutch server. On world Epsilon he kept off a large alliance with just a small group of players. He is a pretty good and experienced player, so i wouldn't underestimate him if i was you guys.
intimidating it is called. Proving that you are strong enough to break through their defense. In which dikzak succeeded.
You'd have to send those attacks to.
If you mean break through defenses by hitting someone while offline and having a bit of 2 hours of notice to "defend" then yes he did. But once we found out there was a CS 2 hours out, we launched nukes instead of trying to have 2-3 guys who were online that were close enough to stop his CS. It was much easier to get 200-300 LS in the water than try to to stop the initial attack.
Also your "300" LS would have hit in small quantities, lets say 10-40 at a time. This would mean they would only need around 200-250 biremes to stop your armada.
I'd like to think this is not an unachievable number, despite their number of players
You underestimate CS. Don't compare how we play to what you think is possible
nice, the mere fact that he had a cyclops suggests he's never played this game before
So I tell this chap he's not playing very well and suggest he ask me for some tips rather than regularly waste silver on unsuccessful spy missions. He had more points than me, but one successful spy mission out of one revealed a point whore with massive resource buildings and a small, but bizarre selection of troops. Obviously this chap has no idea how to farm or manage his human resources. Anyway, seems he doesn't want my help and thinks he can own me whenever he wants...

chuckling, you have no clue to what I have sitting in this village except for my navel fleet that sunk everything you had in one small battle that set you back 10 biremes.
what you got sitting in your village wouldnt even make a snack for the troops I got, for they would be fighting over the bones to make soup *LOL* to keep from starving

You should learn how to use the simulator, that is if you have had any successful spy missions

*LOL* I rather be a pain in your rear, I can take you out anytime I want at the present, I'm just seeing how your building and if I want you about or not.
I'm the judge and jury at this point, wether you live or die

If you don't mind me saying, you are making some fairly gumby moves.
1) Why conquer a second city on the same island? - You won't be able to farm effectively as mood is linked to player not city.
2) Why send spies so regularly? - Wait until you are in a position to conquer and then send a 10K spy that I wouldn't discover, so that I'm not alerted.
3) You have joined an MRA that can give you no back up around here.
4) You would be better off asking me for advice, which I have already offered freely, to prevent making further stupid mistakes.
Any questions?

Less than 24 hours later...
So he attacks me with this awsome navy he has...
Now my BP rank is 500 places higher than my point rank, which is nice.
i really have to disagree, there are a lot of mistakes going on here... (e.g. overconfidence/arrogance/underestimating his enemy, hoplites AND chariots (?), conquering 2 cities on 1 island, etc)well his only mistake was trying to spy on you and not launch a surprise attack during sleeping hours.
he's got a few of absolutely everything possible, suggests noobery. also he's not gonna conquer anything special with such a small attacking population.He's got a nice mix of troops there, was ready for conquering.
impossible to tell since he didn't show troops and we have no idea what the emperor would have done (leave defenders and activate militia? dodge?)I guess if you had caught him online, you would have lost the battle.
again, we don't know what would happen because he didn't show his troops and we don't know that emperors alliance will do anything.If you get 1200 ABP and he gets 1100 DBP it means you lost as he could convince his alliance to conquer you since your troop count is pretty low.
the cockiness doesn't make him a noob, but the (over)confidence in his rag-tag army does.don't consider someone a noob if he responds in a cocky manner to your email.
cyclopes are one of the less effective myth units in the game (prob only minotaurs and hydras are worse), especially in the early days as we are when kingly gift is a far more valuable use of poseidon favour (could have received 11.2k wood instead of buying a cyclops). they are less effective on attack than slingers and only 9% stronger on distance defence, their best stat, than swords. far too expensive for what you get, particularly in the early game i'd say!and a cyclops is good when you have a combined force, it's not like he was going to attack only with it.

I know players like dikzak very well from many many servers, they think they are better than everyone else so they handicap themselves by being in tiny little alliances. They feed on noobs at first than when they have a few cities under the belt they get all cocky start thinking they can take on the big boys. They all end up getting owned and when they do, they all pull the I was outnumbered card. Players like him aint pretty good they are pretty noob because they fail to realise this is a Alliance vs. Alliance game,.
How many nights do you think he will stay up to dodge attacks in the coming weeks before he gives in?
Confederate States has 115 players Pathos has 6 what is there to underestimate?
Dai beat me to it. He tries to put him in a no lose situation. He either manages to get a city and claims triumph or fails and claims numbers.
Those losses will hurt him more than it hurts us
Do they mention the donkey? I have a pet donkey and would be REALLY upset if they dissed him! :Angry:Noobs do have themselves the potty mouth. Some of the things they tell me that they will do to my mother, my father, my sister, my brother and me makes me cringe
