Years ago I started with the game Tribal Wars, a game where you can't buy your advantage. The only thing you can buy is a premium account and this only give you more statistics, a larger map vieuw, more info on the map, +1 building que, notebook. All these things make the game play more easy, but if you have pen and paper you can do all the same things. So no advantage for anyone. I had to stop because it took to much of my time. Because I didn't want to completly stop with wargames I came here, because you couldn't buy that much advantage back then.

Yes coiners allways had an advantage here but not that much. But that is changing for the worse. Because the last couple of updates are rediculus!

And I truly want to know why would you go for the fast buck if you can gain so much more if you play it right?

Tribal Wars had milions of players and are still going strong after 13 years and with millions of players. They make way more money then Plarium does, the game is way more equal for everyone. A big win win. So why destroy the game if there is a way that is better for everyone??

Money, Money, Money

Must be funny In a rich Man's world

Money Money Money always sunny In a rich Man's World

Ohwooooooooooooaaahhhhh

All the things i could do If i had a Littel Money,

It's a Rich Man's World,

It's a Rich Man's world

Wow just wow.

 This Item protects you from the basic fundamentals of this game . Raid - Siege - Fireball - Spying. Just one items blocks all these actions.

Just too much.

So Credit card players Bully smaller leagues and they cannot have any kind of revenge ? yet even spy them

Strategy game!

Strategy = give money to Plarium!

I hope you are now ashamed. 

As I age, time flies by so I had to check my calendar real quick, for a second I thought April First came very fast. 

Nope, not April. Must be real :(

These changes are terrible for the game.  You seriously need to hire a consultant to give you advice on how to keep players, if you have one fire them immediately and roll back all changes for the past 6 months and then bring in players that will give you advice on what we would like to see. 

I still cant believe what Plarium did.

We asked/pleased for some protection of coiners, stupid or not stupid doesn't matter, suggesting Lord Oberon what is the way to do that keeping Plariums need for real money.

And Plarium just did opposite of that. It gave coiners so strong tool(s) that all our (old proven non-coiner players) efforts in building castles, planning battles and units became simple nothing. Now, every coiner from any level and any quantity/quality of knowledge can devastate us without no penalty (money for coiners isn't penal).

At same time, all problems with FBs are kept, including idiot's trick with new alts which could spent all starting sapps for only one thing (with no real money cost!!!): to test our nerves and destroy our units with FBs. After that alt will be abandoned, new will be created, and so on.

With this change, every big coiner became stronger than Lord Oberon, first of ... (if I would write what I really want this post will be deleted, so guess on your own).

Plarium, what did you?

We need to get our leagues to get in here and give their opinion good or bad for the new changes.  I like being married and these new changes if i wanted to compete would just cause me get divorced.  LOL 

I don't think you quite get it..... but its nice to see players get active on the forums -)

I don't have big enough crayons to draw you big enough picture to understand, but hey, I got a feeling my leauge will depart from Stormfall for greener pastures.

Thumbs up and +1 for alienate your players. Good work.

Lord Oberon said:

Seems like everyone didn't actually pay attention to the fact that all these items can be obtained using Soulstones. 

Wrong. I'm one of everyone and I payed attention first on ways for obtaining these items.

... i find it interesting that the "24hr" scroll can only be bought with sapphires. a detail, maybe, but rather revealing as to why those scrolls were developed and implemented.

Lord Oberon said:

Yes, these items can be bought for Sapphires (why not?) But are you willing to use your 2000 Sapphires to protect your castle for one day? Would that be a wise decision? It's only for you to decide. 

MRFREEZZZZ said:

and if you think it'd be unwise to spend 2000saps, then why did you create them in the first place??

but more importantly, it's not so much the fact that these items can only be purchased as the way they're going to severely flaw the game.

Seems that you think that we're sheep. Please read our comments and avoid answers about our IQ.

You can't be f serious plarium. You keep on brining one absurd update after the other and there seems to be no end to it. Instead of resolving insane amount of bugs that are present in the game you guys are bringing these kind of updates. This is insane.

Share the other greener pastures here, so everyone knows what other better options are there for everyone.

I dont see how these updates has destroyed the game, can someone please share the "bigger picture" with me

i am one of those , who some people call coiner. not the biggest one but big enough to be top 100 money spender. 

Just my 2 cents worth.  This change pushes PvP away from castles and more onto settlements, fiefs, and hamlets.  I can see some utility to it.  It might be nice to have protection when you can't be online to spend down resources and cata your troops.  To me, it looks more like vacation insurance or protection while at work than something one would want to use perpetually.  

For those who can afford it, it may also be a convenient way to thwart repeat attackers that are too strong for you to hit.  

I strongly suggest putting some sort of limit on this item.

My Lord, we have created as many limits as possible on this item. It can stay active for only up to 24 hours, the protection does not stack up, and by conducting any aggressive actions you lose your protection. You cannot activate the protection when your units are underway. I can't imagine a situation where a player would just log into the game to renew the protection daily and not attempt any military actions whatsoever. Players using the protection can still be caught unawares. 

will It be easy

Important question:  If there is already a raid or siege incoming, will putting on protection thwart the attack?  

I'm hoping the answer is no since once can already teleport to escape attack and since being able to just pop protection the second you see something coming would make it very hard to catch those who abuse it unaware.

The one time I can see someone logging daily to put on protection is when on vacation.  If you're spending time with friends/family or enjoying being a tourist, you won't be spending much time in game.  Protection can help prevent becoming someone's favorite farm while you're focused on having fun in real life.

When you have catacombs need for such protection of 1 day isn't big thing.

But, if you really want protection for vacation, every normal game offers you vacation days per year. For free!!!

Simple, you have some button for activating such state and you're free to go.

In this game, greed is dominant thing, and I expect that we will soon get new items such as "if you want to breathe while you're playing, become professional player and buy X for 2K per day, or a fantastic similar item of 10K for the whole week".
