Raising Raiders

[Earendil]

 so, after finding a few people that I need to "raise raiders" in order to attack, I go to the generals hut, and attempt to "Prepare raiders" for myself.

I thought that because this is a self spell, you know, just going out and calling in a few raiders for a lot of loyalty, that the success rate would be 100%....
WRONG.

I've failed twice now to "prepare raiders", the second time around I lost 4663  leaders, not to mention my loyalty, while FAILING to prepare raiders for myself....the guide says JS about this subject.

so, what all effects the success rate of this?

 Well, this is one question that is going into the second FAC but here we go...

The success ratios of self spells are depend on the Leader to Hut ratio. How this work, only people with the sourse codes will know

To get 100% success you must not be gaining more leaders each turn.

Sometime you may find that you have to get rid of the huts first, then do the spell and after you can rebuild the huts.

Everyone has different tactics, so it is best to find your own, or one that suits you best.

 so after failing again I tried that strat, I sold off all my huts and tried again. this time 4000 leaders were leaving per turn because I had no huts, and I *STILL* lost the self spell.

I'm getting frustrated...I'm also getting low on loyalty and leaders now...

[Abby The Rat]

 errr.... I didn't say get rid of ALL the hut,

Just enought so that you don't get any more leader per turn...


Sorry...

If you like, talk to me on one of my IM...

 Whats the point in recall raiders?

[Bloodrath]

 If you recal raiders, people from other locations can't attack you, unless they prepair there raiders. Otherwise, if your raiders are open, then they can come attack you without prepairing there raiders.

I didn't know that...

[calria]

 Yeah I figured that out from attacking a few folks from other locations without preparing my raiders first... it says something like "taking advantage of your opponent's provision..." blah-blah. That's why I always try attacking first, instead of going straight into the General's Hut.

 Yep, its all true so be warned. heh. ;)
