Yep. Good advices. It's sneaky one with the Raids

I think all beginners should read this article. It will help them avoid mistakes. 

Sometimes lost shield = lost all rss and troops.

At this reason, all guys must know this easy rules.

u're right. I agree absolutely!

How do I see how much time is left on my inaccessibility?

Just open boosts (right part of screen) and look at town defense.

What happens if I send troops as reinforcements to the city of another order member, and then that player's city later gets attacked? Will the participation of my troops in the ensuing battle (helping to defend the other player's city) cause my inaccessibility shield to fail even if I do not initiate any attacks on other cities?

nope, you'll not lose your shield when smb will attack your mate who's keeping your RI

Not sure what you mean by rss location

rss is a common short form for a camp resource tile. [No, I've never figured out where the short form comes from, either.]

(They're called camps to distinguish them from Assailant droppings.)

if you hit the resources tiles, the shield stays up.

Not quite correct. Yes if you merely yield the tile, correct, but if you attack the tile, your shield will drop.

- actually, you will be asked to drop shield before you can initiate the attack. [So if you didn't agree, you will not lose shield.] Thus, if you attack the tile, your shield will inherently already be down.

This does not apply if someone get there before you and your shields are up - you will merely bounce off the tile and return. Your shield does not drop in that process.

'Bubble' is the (Plarium) Vikings term for what Throne calls inaccessibility. Many players came to Throne from there, and they kept the parlance.

if i relocate my city the shield keep working or i lose it?

Hello!

Relocating does not affect on the Inaccessibility. 

But if you relocate your Town within the Dominion, remember that you cannot use Inaccessibility in the Forest of Ancients.

As Roger said.

But ...

REMEMBER: YOU WILL BE WARNED BEFORE SOME ACTION YOU DO WILL CAUSE YOUR SHIELD TO DROP.

It will -expire- silently, though.

If you are shielded and attack or espionage someone, it will warn you that doing so will drop shield - do you wish to proceed anyways?

- so you will know when your shield is going to drop (due to your deliberate action).

As does ***joining a raid*** - be aware of this. Apparently it is a frequent gotcha.

You can immediately re-raise your shield, but for at least a second or two, your shield will be down.  So's y'know.

(Some attackers wait for precisely that moment.)

This is all discussed elsewhere in the forum(s), you may want to take a gander. And at the KaW FAQ page.

(The FAQ page is misnamed, it's actually a rather good how to play / game mechanics resource.)
