We recommend to hit BGs one by one. However, if you still use the old strategy, you will need just the same amount of 1-bar BGs to get a big payout as with the 1-by-1 strategy. Maybe some experienced BG raiders will give you some more hints.

My Lady i would like to ask if does this mean that killed troops bank the same if bg is not finished than if this finished??? 

and if mean that, then the killed troops in a non finished bg goes into bank as if the bg were finished ???

Thanks in advance, regards

Lord Sison, ALL units count. But those you purchase with sapphires contribute less resources to the "BG bank". It's not a good idea to use them for the BG's. 

Thanks DJ. I try to keep imperials for zero loss principle, but do get the occasional * * * * * * up. 

I have never coined imperial in large numbers to test but I would assume they count as normal troops just like Eldritch units do.

Even if they don't, not hard to fix - just darken them and then use them.

Hmm a rare foray into the forum again, & here I am posting again !

Just a head`s up to those that may have missed it, Imperials do count towards the bank, but they are not of the same value, as they cost less res. 2 make ! :)

Ok, that`s me, outta the forums for possibly. another year or so.! Lol.

Ciao.

JUGLAR DEL VIENTO, 

nice evaluations the fact that u were able to deduce the simple interest in a blind banking system is unimaginable...

well apart from that your theories are really working, mathematics is not my forte but the payouts is all i care and by following your system of raiding a BG, i actually got a huge payout.....

thanks lord juglar, really appreciate ur help

Does the 11* something formula ring a bell, I had of it once and it worked like magic, but I forgot the formula. I got it from someone and since have forgot it. can you please tell me the formula, and how it works.

Hello DJ,

They told us already in other threads that yellow barred BG's don't add to your bank until they are killed. This was their grand plan to "stop" the current BG's schemes (which didn't have any impact at all on the schemes).

What do you mean "did not have any impact" ? If yellow-barred BG's do not add to the bank, then how can you control the time at which you get your payout ?

I am confused :-)

Thanks for any clarification (or link) !

ery helpful analysis, my Lord. Hope more Lords and Ladies read this

So is there a tutorial on how the BG's should now be played?

You can find some tips in Articles on our game blog: https://plarium.com/en/strategy-games/stormfall-age-of-war/pro-players/battlegrounds/

Btw the BG's are definitely bugged.

While testing this weekend the BG's stopped paying out. Over x3 loaded for a top level and still no payouts. The small levels didn't payout even when reaching x2 loaded for their base values (should give you a guarantee payout).

In short they just didn't payout at all.

I checked with other leading BG players and they also experienced the same thing.

From the dawn of the game there has always been a mechanics where at any point in time there was a random factor applied to the base loading value of a BG. It used to be approx + or - 20%. This stops them form being completely predictable and also makes it more difficult to crack the mechanics. I can see how it makes logical sense.

It appears in all the tweaking of BG's Plarium have allowed a bug to creep in where the random factor gets distorted to a level that is so high payouts are impossible. The only explanation other than a bug is that Plarium do this intentionally to push players to run out of troops and revive (and I would like to think they wouldn't do that).

So if you are doing BG's and are clearly appropriately loaded but not getting payouts STOP and WAIT a couple of days before continuing.

I am sure this is the reason why so many people have been complaining about BGs. Unfortunately many people will have run out of troops and had no armies left to continue the game because of this.

Hi! Let's check what's happening there. Please write a PM to Lord Oberon and include the following information:

1) Date of your last big payout (if possible).

2) Time frame that should be checked.

3) The number of complaints you've heard from other players.

@ALYONA; 

Would you care to ask the dev's to possibly remove the resc payout from BG's? Before you completely get disgusted with this, please at least read :) 

1: Removing the resc, would result in more units being rewarded and also would help, in my opinion players who still do BG's with an unfilled bank.

2: It really doesn't make much sense to be awarded 100g G/I/F for successfully a BG, it seems kind of unusual since a real BG would be loaded, amirite? No, but really I feel like removing resc. will just make it better, I would much rather get a few pike or archer as opposed to 100 of each resc ;p

3: If anything, instead of 100 of each, let us possibly pick to receive resc or troops only? Kind of a contradiction but BG's are just not fun :(

Dear Lord

if u are refering to 100 of each resources you get from low levels bgs (1-20) they are free and were thought for the beginners in game to help them with some resources to begin on game and on bgs. be aware that they are free and dont count on bank so u dont have to do any bank calcs when you get them. 

Regards

Guys,
