Invasion Event!

[TinSoldier]

An Invasion has begun! For the duration of the event, all invasion boosted troops will be boosted with 2x Damage, 2x Health, 2x Attack Speed, and 2x Training Speed! Some of the boosted troops can be trained on your base, while others are available in Traveling Merchant trades.

The following troops will be boosted this event:
• Melee Mercenary
• Ranged Siege
• General Nobunaga
• Heavy Tanks
• Fighter Planes

While your empire is under siege during the Invasion event, the following defensive buildings will be boosted with 2x Damage, 2x Health, and 2x Attack Speed:
• Tower
• Ballista Tower
• Redoubt
• Air Defense

Event lasts from 4/26 14:00 UTC until 4/29 14:00 UTC

Holy Moly! 2x damage, health, speed, and training for HTs and fighters. This is going to be ridiculous!!! not sure if good or bad but certainly ridiculous. defense boosts are a wash but they will wipe the rest of the base in no time. lol

 

[K1ng_kriting]

LOL double on HT

 

[BeerMan]

Damn I was hoping for zookas so we'd get to see max bases go down in 35 seconds.

 

[~Kratos~]

Actually yeah, would have been a good tribute to the end of AR rule, before it gets nerfed... ;p

 

[pckrn]

good decision on buffing some of the defense buildings too.

 

[Uhuru]

Maybe it's a tribute to the Heavy tanks =)

 

[oddin]

can't say if I like this event or not cause we just lost a war because their attacks took advantage of the boosted stats 50 mins before the end of WW and we had 0 attacks. The war was ours and we lost because of this event.

 

[Quagmire]

I can confirm Transport aircraft are pretty useless now, during this Event.

 

[sileepuppee]

I wouldn’t say that. The last time planes got the steroid boost you could take out bases without dropping other troops. But this is now where the rebalance cut planes down so while they are definitely boosted, the aa and tower boosts shred planes quite easily. HT tanks will be quite useful in war but in MP I would still say it’s not a lock because of the boosted tank guns. I guess it always depends on the bases being attacked but I’ve already seen more people coming at my base with HT load out only to get smushed. I’ll be glad when the event is over and we can go back to bazooka attacks.

 

[Chadwicke]

All I can say is why?

 

[Patgfx]

This event resulted for me : End of the multiplayer attacks, end of the Event fall of A and end of my shopping purchases. Three days to wait for the return to the normal rules.

 

[Chadwicke]

Terrible idea for an event is it possible to just do something right

 

[jonbly]

Surprised that this wasn't used to boost some of the game's loser troops...

 

[Uhuru]

Stupid event. I wish it was over.

 

[~Kratos~]

Just a few more hours

 

[No Angel]

How about war base donations? If they were donated before event was over, then war started after the event was over?

 

[~Kratos~]

Definitely stats of after-event situation for those donated troops too. Even past replays change stats, I wrote about that a little in the other thread. Some funny results there.
