I am working now to max gunpowder I have 13 wall segments left and have completed about half of the university available at level 2 (gun powder max uni level). None of these remaining upgrades/buffs contribute to my level xp. I am at 113.
so I am fairly sure that gunpowder maxes out at 113 Xp. I’m debating staying here for about another 2 weeks to get all the building/troop buffs that make me stronger, mostly on defense but a few are offense as well. Haliberter, arqubusier, field mortar and garrison troop buffs. Haliberters are my garrison troops also, while I’m not sure i am hoping that both buffs effect them. They are getting pretty strong, I’ve spent time on this for sure, but I lose little loot in most multi-player raids/attacks and rarely give up 5 stars, most attackers have to struggle/panic to get 2 stars. Since one of my goals is to confound and frustrate attackers. So far so good.
Plus I dislike playing catch-up in the next age. While I would need about 60 more days to finish the university at my level I believe I can fill that in as a spare time/ worker available project once I move to enlightenment age, and there is very little uni at level 3 anyway. The other side is I can now spend time experimenting with my attack strategy so feel no pressure to advance and start the rat race of upgrades over again. I am (just now) becoming unable to consume the loot I accumulate and in a week from now will be at max capacity, so I will have tons available for raiders. But it won’t be easy to get...
While I’m in this end of age limbo I invite anyone who can find me in multi-player to have at it and raid big loot. Be aware though that it won’t be easy.
im also about to find out what happens to raided loot when my storage buildings are maxed out. I am assuming it will just evaporate into the ether.
