I love this game, but one of the most frustrating things is when you want to play but can't log in because you are "under attack." Instead, why not allow the log in while under attack, but just freeze the resources at risk until the attack is over. Also, the building layout could be locked in...

Not true, I upgraded 100% of everything before advancing to Classical Age and will do so prior to Midieval as well. Defenses were my first priority in Classical, but there's a huge difference between early Classical defense and Midieval offense. It doesn't bother me at all that I get raided. It...

Maybe I'll appreciate the system more when I can smash the noobs too! Ha... Unsavory, your point is very valid about making it easier to drop medals, and I agree it won't truly be fixed until medals mean something. In the meantime, you could decrease the medals for losing or perhaps take away...

Here's what I recommend for a formula for the engine: base multiplayer on a "battle score" that's a composite of level, medals, and alliance. Level score would be 1 for 1, medal score would be medals/200, and if a player is a member of an alliance, add 2. A player at level 38 with 800 medals and...

Understand that's the strategy, but I'm puzzled why the engine would reward players deliberately "throwing" battles and disincentivize players being aggressive in multiplayer--don't they want good battles to be a central part of the game? Thanks for the response!

In the time it took to write the post above, I was raided by 3 super heavy horses, 1 Persian horse, 1 wall miner, 25 archers, 24 foot soldiers (too advanced for me to know what they're called) and 6 other merc soldiers--obviously a Midieval player, and even with every Classical Age defense I...

Several have already commented on the medal-based multiplayer matching, and I'd like to offer a suggestion. My experience: I'm currently level 27 Classical Age with 650ish medal count. When I battle, I'm constantly matched against Midieval opponents I have no chance of defeating. Even the lowest...
