It has been done

You'll need atleast a couple leaders. I forget how low you can go, some indier can correct me, but I think 100 huts. It might be as low as 1, as long as you have a couple leaders in it... but you do need a (very) small amount of loyalty
Go to general's hut and cast "Raise Defenses."
The first cast is 12 hours, each subsequent is +3 hours. I've got mine raised for somewhere near 300 odd hours, last me till the end of the round and I dont have to worry about anyone stealing my cash. Sacking is still an issue, but I've begun to deal with that.

Raise Defenses causes each leader mission to do 1% damage instead of the normal 3%.
Where you were murdered 21 time at 3%, it would have been 21 times at 1%. Quite a difference. Same effect with Steal and Poison.
I believe the guide claims it helps with troop losses in defending attacks as well

Your sob stories are really tugging at my strings, people.

Get over it.

I dont think they where sob stories. Mainly statements of how pathetic you seem when you do this, and how it does not seem to benefit you in any way.

What do you mean by shield up?

In the General's Hut, there's a mission called Raise Defenses. That's raising shields--with it, leader attacks do 1/3 damage (meaning murders kill 1% troops and leaders instead of 3%).

1 Hut with at least 150 leaders will enable you to perform any mission, provided you have enough loyalty.

100 leaders will enable you to perform almost all of the missions (maybe even all)

Thanks wind, bob, and taek. I have them raised now :)

CobyCopper · September 08, 2008, 10:32:06 PM

Good luck. I would suggest you heal by raising your shields in Regular and Turbo. Many good players have been taken down because they forget until it's too late.

Hells Militia · September 08, 2008, 10:43:12 PM

Not a bad idea, I will try that next run.

If they forget something like that, they're not that good.

It benefits me greatly because of the entertainment I get out of it. And it's a good thing my self-esteem doesn't depend on what you think of me.

It's actually a common error--too common really. I've seen it at least a half a dozen times during takedowns and disruptions of plans. Ereptor forgot them prior to emping last time. Your own Volkov forgot them following that. I have hit Conor and quite a few others without shields as well in the past few months.

Anyways--I've forgot them too--just not at really critical times. For indies--they should always have shields raised. For leaders, it's not THAT necessary if they don't have NW.

They didnt make you do anything... they just had net. You could have taken land from them easily. That's just a move designed for the sake of grabbing attention.

To anyone who was hit by this fool tonight, message me ingame if you need help getting back on your feet.

I can handle myself against this scum, it's my students that I'm worried about, if you see them get hit hard could you give them a hand plz?

Me scum? Those are brave words coming from someone known for trying to double cross and backstab other players all the time.

I have yet to see any bite from you in your time here. You've been nothing but bark so far.
