I keep getting raided and hate that fact. It whacks my BP. So how can I avoid getting raided so much and stop the cretins taking my resources and whacking my BP down. I lose about 2 million each time. It’s doing my head in.

Jon Le

hide your troops…

Sydney

What’s the point of the occupy button?

Brendan Taylor

Is there any limit to the number of total troops you can have at any point throughout the game? I couldn’t locate this information.

Pita

I don’t believe so. I have over 5 mil and I know others who have 10mil

James

The barn warehouse has protected resource levels that I stay under yet I keep getting my supplies taken when raided. Why is that? If they really aren’t protected what’s the point of upgrading your warehouse?

Dee

Some of the decoration items, I reckon, are fixed once you set them in place. Any idea if we can still move or demolish them? If not, how to get rid of them?

Sha B

Hi Dee. If you’re using a mobile device just tap and hold down on the item you want to demolish. If on a PC, just click on the item 🙂

I found this game like nice one and start playing. But game which allows 75M player attack me (3M) and steal all of my resources (Leaving 5% protected is a joke for me) And only way for it is to buy protection. Sorry but I will say no for game like that

Chiro

How do the alliance farms work, i have played KOK where you can farm from the alliance farm, this does not seem to be the case here. Please advise.
