 Whenever I got hit by other ppl either with sack or capture, I lose a lot of resources/leaders.  However, when I spy on my targets during my own run and sack/capture them, I got really bad result, probably 50% of what other ppl got from me even if my grains/leaders count is almost the same.   I mean if it only happen a run or two, then I could call it bad luck, but thing is I haven't even got one run when I could grab anything close to calling even.  So can someone tell me how does sack/capture code work?  I just hope it just isn't my luck cuz I would have to stop buying lottery tickets if that is true :(

 what are you sacking with? Sacking is most profitable with Weasels. It is least profitable with Rats. You might also be attacking people with less resources than you. Or, you might just have bad luck

 Ya, i understand that, but no matter what happened, I still never got close to what other ppl consistently grab from me.  I get like 30-40k leaders per capture and lots of time, I got 0 as well.  While other ppl just seems to capture from me with success every time and they get more leaders per capture even though my leaders are same as my victim when I do that.
I was just wondering if hitting ppl with a lot more troops will influence leader capture or maybe my net is higher than them or anything?  Maybe I'm just plain unlucky :(

 Sacks gets more with weasels? Why don't you make a good game guide?

 Juska... You need to take a Class I chill pill, my man, as you're becoming quite unlikable by everyone except those in your own clan. Lesson: Friends are not made by insults and boasting; friends are made by cheerfulness and reasonability.  :rolleyes:

 You're supposed to make friends here?  I thought you only need a few allies, then poison the rest of the player base  :blink:

 In the game, at least. Even if people ceaselessly stomple each other in-game, that doesn't stop them from being friends on the forums. The forums and the game are almost two separate worlds. o.o

 Razorclaw I'm fed up with you mainly, and retto because we never get a half decent game guide, and I can't find anything useful in the code.

Take your own advice for once.

 ...Juska, why dont /you/ make the gameguide?
you could do the basic stuff, like attack types and troop types and locations, and Retto could add in stuff like the command line codes...  
:lol:   instead of complaining, try helping...

 I could do some of the attack type and stuff, but I can't find locations in the code for the life of me, and testing it in-game will take alot of time. I don't have very much experience with the code and what everything means either, so I would take me alot of time to do what retto or an other experienced coder could do in a very short time. I posted my findings about locations a while ago, it got no notice.

 Straight from the game guide, Juska:

QUOTE (THE GAME GUIDE)


Sack allows you to use your troops to loot and pillage another Warlord. You only gain 30% of the land you would otherwise.

You get a random number from

Enemy (Food/Cash) * 0.0005
to
Enemy (Food/Cash) * ((Minimum(2, (Your Defenseive Points / (Your Offensive Points + 1)))/2)/200[/quote]

Total or currently attacking points? I assume currently attacking, but...
