Jesus war is expensive.

I have like 3 fools picking on my smallest colony and they are completely oblivious to the fact that I have a military score of about 30,000.

I had somewhere around 120000 gold and after fucking two of them up I am basically broke...

You should have asked me. You're right next to me. I'm at 81:65 Straidios

Name - Snarks
Cities - Conderium (Capital), Loggerith (Colony), Bravil (Colony).

Heh, war is also a little retarded. I found a guy with a level 4 port and about 40k resources, a amazing target with little defenses. But by the time my blockade got there.. he had more than enough time to destroy his port, meaning I wasted my fleet for 7 hours, a handful of units (like 6 archers and 8 swordsmen) and a ton of gold, to gain shit.

It is amusing to chat with him, he's really proud how we managed to foil my plan with his great scheme of clicking on the "Downgrade" arrow 4 times! What a brilliant man he is! =)

lol phil, I look for inactives, and load up on them hitting them 10-50 times a day, one guy had a 1.4 million gold score, after 5 days he had 300,000 and then his account was gone.  I went from liek 15k a raid to about 3k...  I was laughing i got so much gold off of him and it has helped energize my empire with enough gold to constantly trade for resources under the price of 30 gold, while selling any wine i have for abotu 60. 

I ave noticed...  Inactives are the ones to hit, all the normal players will reinforce towns and such and really start digging in especially if its a long ways away and it takes hours to get to.   

If you can find an inactive with a decent military score, hit him with a large army first clear out his town, and just continue to send armies to him with 1 guy after that, i do that to a couple towns around me, even getting only 1-2k per trip, thats a lot of profit for 60-200 trip cost.

Yeah, but inactive farming is a little boring. It's one extreme or the other.

Either attack inactives, who most likely don't have any resources by now anyway, hoping to grab some cash. Just spam attacks as often as you can (there are no inactives above level 2 in my area right now, so i have to attack like every hour... bleh).

Or actually try to pillage people, where you have to spy out anyone with a trade port above level 1. Then either spy out his garrison or hope for luck. Spend a bunch of gold on a blockade, and pray that he doesn't come online to destroy his port.
Not to mention that you need at least a few attacks to make it worthwhile. If he comes back in...  lets say 2 hours for your blockade to get there, then another 2 hours for 2 attacks.. he comes back in under 4-5 hours, you're at a loss.

Right now I'm quite content with just staying in the top200. If I get bored of that I'll pillage all these fucks in the Mrtyr alliance, I'm in their "Zone". Every second town around me in a 4 island radius is theirs =)
