Fuck fuck fuck, i am about to set up my colony but some asshat from a random coord is sending a raid out at me, and I need another trade ship yet, but still don't have the money to buy it. Hopefully i can get it in 3 hours so i don't lose all this wood!

[Unkn0wn]

Put your wood on the market in your trade post for outrageous prices to keep it safe .

[CatinHat]

hind the wood on your roofs they will never look up there

[fldash]

It's not safe on the market... It disappears from your resource amount at the top, but if you check your warehouse, it's still listed as lootable.

[Unkn0wn]

Oh dang .
I'm never worried about wood though, I have about 70 lumberjacks so I get plenty every hour.

[Skunker]

When you need 1250 wood for a colony, you'll understand why you'd get pissed.

[CatinHat]

how you tell if someone is coming for you?

[fldash]

I had a full warehouse of wood, 3200, so I donated a bunch to our sawmill and vines.  Now I'm at 2200.

[fldash]

Look at your military screen.  The 'attacking enemies' list on the left.

how you tell if someone is coming for you?

[Skunker]

I've got 3 hours, since this guy is like ages away, but his city is L7, so i bet he's got 6 swordsmen, and not 6 slingers, I'm probably going to lose horribly, the question is will my trade ship return or the other sell its goods in time so i can send it out to set up my sulfur colony.

[Unkn0wn]

Wtf, it sais I have an attack on a foreign city but I never order such an attack...
How do you abort?

[fldash]

Sometimes trade routes are reported as attacks.  It's bugged.

Skunker, most likely it'll return before then.  Each world tile takes 40 minutes of travel time.

^Sunker tell us his name and location, also get ride of your res somehow so he cant pillage anything, buy the most expensiv thing you can get, upgrade your warehouse.

[fldash]

You can ship your resources to someone then recall them when he leaves I think... Smart players blockade your port before sending troops so you can't do that. 

[CatinHat]

i bet he has better stuff then at if he is level 7

If you want to mass pillage:
Seukios[24:51], Sparta is the name of the town.

Dash, I think my port is blockaded, but I'm not sure.

[fldash]

If it is, and you try to ship stuff to your new colony, he's going to get it all.  Just FYI. 

[Unkn0wn]

Can your trade ships be destroyed?

[Skunker]

Lol, how can i tell?

I've sent out some trade ships WHILE the attack message was on, and they got off just fine, so maybe it isn't?


Edit: Whew, colony is on the way out of my port.

[fldash]

Unkn0wn, not that I know of.  However, if your port is blockaded, any shipments in and out of your port get re-routed to the blockading town.  Skunker, probably isn't...
