Some questions

[Hume87]

I have been playing for a while now and here are some questions:

1. When an enemy raids you, how much of your total resources are stealable?
2. Why does it seem like some enemy bases have huge defending armies? (Asking in the sense if this might be some cheat, otherwise I asume they just upgraded so much to have actual defending "armies" it seems.
3. When in an alliance, what changes? Except to donate and request troops? And how do you advance your alliance's ranking?
4. Just curious, why do some people build all their roads in one little spot? Like a blob. To keep the caravans just at one spot?

I think that's all for now, must say it gets harder and harder to evolve the further you advance, which is fine. And I pretty much lose every enemy attack on my base, but then again so does my enemies lose against me, so I guess that's fair, it's just this back and forth "trading" of resources. I now started attacking every time my troops are ready regardless of peace treaties, as it seems it's the only way to build up resources enough to do something.

Just out of interest, when will the modern ages be introduced to the game? Any news on which ages? Like Industrial and Modern etc? And what unique unit each nation will then have, I suppose the current unique unit will become the next unique unit later on. Anyway nice game.

1) 50% of caravan farms. 25% of market mills 2) upgrades....probably 3) for now just donations. rank based on medals 4) road income is useless. creating a defense that incorporates roads is pain in ass. if ur experimenting with defense setups moving roads around is pain in the ass. 5) defending is hard. if u have enough resources someone will take them even if ur maxed out enlightenment. defense changes the breaking point when its worth attacking u 6) no word on next age release date. but i have seen pictures of industrial age

It's less than 25% for market and mills it's writing sometimes when you start the game . I think it's like 22 or 23%
