Playing Japanese in the iron age and I have everything maxed out except for the barracks.
I have a mostly defensive layout with lvl 3 walls protecting mills, market, farms, defensive buildings and town center.
First, I keep getting raided by classical age attackers and lose substantial amount of loot.
They are just too strong, with horsemen, javeliners, and huge array of troops.
Even my catapult, lvl 3 garrison, lvl4 towers cannot defend.
So instead of farming, let's just raid and get everything I need right?
But both my barracks only get me 35 troop spaces, and mercenary camp gets javeliners.
After 1 attack, the mercenaries are gone, and 35 troop spaces, after a few horsemen, can only beat low-loot easy bases.
Keep losing troops, rebuilding, seems I need to string together 10+ victories in a row to get 150,000 food, too long ..... log out, raided ....
I can't farm my way to upgrade barracks, even if I'm patient enough to wait a couple days.
But I can't raid my way because I need better barracks.
Chicken and egg problem.
Can I progress without spending any money on crowns?
