I think we'll hold them off OK. I've used all my turns and gold to good effect so lets just keep on fighting right to the new round starts.

After the reset, I joined the faction Kairakau. I guess it's the new faction after cat people. I got attacked from all sides while trying to get my army looking abit healthier.

I got more attacks against me this morning than I had in the whole time I was in Cat People!!!! That happens early in the game. On the other hand, you wouldn't have lost too much gold. I've had 21 attacks against me and the largest amount of gold taken off me was still only a third of my average loss per attack last round.

The only thing about getting a high score early on is that you then become the target, not the hunter. I intend to stay down very low for the next few days, then just move up very quietly.
Last round I got into the top 50 very early, then had to pull every trick in the book to try and stay there. But over the last few days of the round I was rapidly pushed back to finish just out side the top 100. This round I'm aiming for the top 10, and that means taking it slower at the beginning, being defensive to hold as much gold as possible, then slowly changing to attack as the game progresses.

I'm at the stage that universities are a lot more expensive than I can afford, so I've had to use a few turns on attack.
But this isn't too bad:
Jantar Gold: 9 Tax: +2,035 Population: 18 Turns: 46 Score: 64 Next tick: 34 minutes

ok got my arse kicked because I didn't log off, won't be happening again I can tell you.
Will be taking things slowly as I don't really understand what the hell is going on despite reading the tutorials. Apart from that will do my best.
Did as advised and picked a faction, kaiatau and Sir Roderick as my King - why? I have no idea.

Did as advised and picked a faction, kaiatau and Sir Roderick as my King - why? I have no idea. Good choices, both for faction and sovereign. You will find that in this game you'll get your arse kicked even if you do log off. Your only protection against attack is a full defensive strategy, but that isn't a winning one. I'm starting off defensive, but in a couple of days I'll start moving onto attack. Even now with full defense I had three succesfull attacks against me while I was at work, and seven unsuccessfull ones that each gave me glory.
