The number of PP available

I had 90 positions and usually, after the reset, I was able to use the same number. But recently, I found out that after the reset, only 75 was available. Looks like only about 20 positions vs all I defeated were restored. If that is the rule, I do not think it is fair and if the Administration at least to the smallest extent cares about players, they have to change that. I understand, they are afraid that smaller players would be able to compete with big coiners, thus the limitation. And I also understand that coiners supply the ownership with revenues. However, without smaller players the game will die. 

Thus, a compromise is necessary. I think 40 recovered positions per day would be necessary minimum, in order for non-coiner players to be competitive in tournaments.

I guess you haven't played positions in some time right? 

As Alyona mentioned above the maximum number of positions detected is 60.

if you have 100 or more positions,you cant use extra positions,but with 99,you can,so its 99+20=119,and if you finish top position you get new top off and top def,so i think max number of positions is 120,or in your case if you have already 120 and if you finish top off,you could get 2 new,top off and top def,so it could be 121,but i think not more then that o.O

You are both wrong. Remember, we can buy additional positions. The problem is, sometimes what you used get restored at reset time - sometimes it is not. And that is another case of the infamous Plarium darkness, when it comes to providing the players with rules.

Tonaya, as Xna and Alyona failed to answer my question, do you know the answer? Why after buyin a lot of positions and hitting many high lvl positions, thir number stopped going back after resets?

Almost nothing seems to work as it should in this game

Examples please :) The fact is that players may expect things to work a bit differently than intended. As it often happens with PPs. Actual game mechanics may differ from your expectations, which leads to thinking that things don't work as they should :)

Admins, do you have an informed answer to the question or not? 

My coal mate had more than 100 PP and after the rest got 25 back. 

As for me, I only have 62 after my reset. 

Would you come with some useful informaton, please?

You can only have up to 60 regular persian missions (special ones with the fixed reward don't count) through reset. Anything above that means you either only did one of the 2 new positions and let it pile up or used the position item to add more. If you had 90, killed some, then reset to 90 then it means you either had a bunch of special missions and didn't clear them so it gave you back regular ones then did some special ones and those don't get reset or the game had a small bug and gave you more positions than you should get after reset which would mean Plarium gave you a little bonus.

If you have only 60 regular PPs (which is a normal number allowing you to get new PPs after you clear some), you should check which levels are overwhelming and clear them. it's possible that you have too many high-lvl PPs, and low-lvl ones just can't appear because of that.

Ouch. You'll definitely need to reduce the number if you ever wish to receive lower levels :)

Don't understand why would anyone ever want low lvl ?


d3, that is exactly what you need. Since you are not a coiner or/and hacker, your troops numbers are limited.

Thus, the only option for you is to start hitting low positions, I suggest at least 10, so you still have most troops intact after that. Then you hit the largest ones; leaving small portions in each, until you spend almost everything. And then you start hitting leftovers, from the to 140s and 50s (in my case). That is the way to go. Otherwise, you will find yourself without both troops and payouts


BTW, smowman, you forgot that winter is over :)

It's exactly what i try to avoid , low lvl positions and it's rewards , doing PP for close to 2 years.



You'll be surprised, but there are many players that want to raid lower levels as it's just much easier :) Requires less Units, less time to get a reward. However, I agree that each player has their own strategy.

If you have 60+ PPs, they just won't reset, you won't get any new PPs. Your mate has probably misinformed you ;)

Still silence?

Another issue: I desperately need low lvl positions, keep purchasing - get only high lvl, which doesn't allow me hit enough i order to get a good payout.

My friend on the contrary, need high lvl - but gets only low lvl. Another evidence that plarium deliberately creates algorithms in order  to hurt players - you always get what is opposie to your needs. 
If you continue only purchasing PPs, you will end up with high level ones. To get lower levels you need to clear all (or almost all) Positions and keep their number under 60. Then you can raid low levels and receive other low levels instead.

Giving low level positions is also a very very waist of time/resources/money , especially when your city reached high level.

If it was after me , i would prefer a single position that you can hit forever (Call it xerxes and that's it) , so that i know for sure that i will always get my max reward if i get luky and filled the bank. So i never have to worry that plarium will trap and offer me the reward at a much lower lvl than "normal/expected" so it will force my ars to buy drachmas or wait a year (train) to continue. Anyways , this is just me , for the ones that likes it the way it is , have fun !

This is just one of the mechanism plarium uses to drive drachma sales. There's no "conversion" as you keep like it for people to know it as.
If you had no intent about this feature to drive massive drachma sales , then why can't i think that you could make the conversion of units from lower type/rank to upper grades with something like the instant exchange at the argentarium (without asking for drachmas again).
