It's not necesary to beat hell on anybody to be on top in this game.

We all have seen this, how do you know how many gold you should spent in a recruitment mission, and how do you know how many workers will you get?

If the recruitment mission had some logic then you could control if you want to be on top or not. And you could be ready for this.

I'm sure queen Morgana didn't want to get the top with just one "lucky" click, but this is the way the game works.

If you think that's a good reason to attack or be attacked, I respect it.

But in my way of thinking she hasn't offended you just because she tried to get some more workers.

Have a Nice Day

Sometimes, when I say "lol", I don't actually laugh out loud.  That time, I did.  Funny stuff.

However, if you think about it, in theory, she's now paying 45,000+ workers, all of whom are probably grateful to have jobs in this economy.  I'm sure they'd fight and die for her.  wink.gif

So attack her if you dare.  But before you shout that the workers ought to simply eat cake when they have no bread, remember, there are more of them than us.  wink.gif

I am also LOLing, My lords you have given me a good laugh this morning. Thank you..

(*thinks* - the "economy" and begins laughing all over again)




And Good Luck to Queen Morgana! Congrats! biggrin.gif

This game does not guarantee anyone a peaceful existence. If you end up at the top, and someone else wants to be there, and is willing to put their troops where their mouth is, then get ready for an assault. lol

One of the things I like about this game. smile.gif

Lets think about this for a bit...

Morgana probably doesn't have much of an army, or much of an infrastructure. She was relatively inactive, and very low on the scoreboard, well below the top 50. What she does have is a buttload of unemployeed workers. Yet, because this number is so insanely out of wack, and because worker count is the primary factor in determining score, she is thousands of points ahead of anyone.

Now, at this point, any of us with a decent army could attack her, and litterally wipe out her Kingdom, destroy her armies, eliminate her infrastructre, and guess what. She'd still be #1. No army, no buildings, but at the top of the leader board. Not only that, but because her score is so high, she cant retaliate. She cant attack anyone because of the restrictions in place based on score. So she literally is an absolute sitting duck.

Most of us now realize that at some point Workers are just not worth it. Training costs become extreemly prohibitive after a certain point, as the cost to train them is more that the benefit of the resources that they would generate. This number is debatable, but personally I wouldnt want much more than say 1,200 workers. Maybe less. The second factor is that too many workers keep you from being able to attack people below you. Look at MacD. This guy has around 680 workers, but he is able to maintain one of the strongest armies in the game. And he knows that by keeping his score low, people with armies big enough to hurt him can't do it because they have around 1000 more workers than he does.

So because of this, no one who wants to be able to fight/ engage in battles, is going to send Slavers after Morgana. Slavers aren't really cost effective (its cheaper to buy than to steal) until you are at around 800 or so. This too is a second disincentive for stealing workers from Morgana. So I think we should all get comfortable with the idea that Morgana will be Queen for a looong time, unless someone else wants to become the next puppet Monarch by following my new guide to MK Royalty below:

Want to be King or Queen of CR.? Here is how to do it. Get a small # of workers. Put them all in gold mines. Log in once a week. Build Mines, lots and lots! Dont waste your time with armies. Stay under the radar. If you dont appear to be a threat, no one will attack you. Go on an extended vacation. Come back after a month, and put all your gold into recruitment. One click and BAM, King of CR.

I agree with you in almost everything Lord davlcam.

So why not to call the things by it's real name?

The game needs to be redefined in the item of "recruitment missions", things like this are unfair.

But let me tell you something my Lord, you don't need to spent lots of gold to get a large number of workers.

And I think she didn`t spent all of her resources in that mission, but just a little more than the minimum needed.

I have done that all the time, and I have gotten many workers, of course not as much as Queen Morgana or Lord djam1023.

Many of us work hard managing our Kingdoms, building, training, assigning, etc to have a good place in the rating, but this kind of unlogical things can bring discomfort to the game.

What's the goal of this game?

Be the first or have the largest army?

I think both, but the game itself has demonstrated other thing.

I think the score system should be reviewed too.

you can find out the MINIMUM amount of gold you have to put in to begin receiving workers. Lets say you put in zero gold and hit recruit then it will tell you you need X amount of gold to receive workers so you put that amount in or a little bit higher and you've got a good amount of workers.. I refuse to believe that the new queen did this and put in a small amount of gold and suddenly receive like 45,000??? i know this game has it's hits and misses but i fail to see it doing that. She simply put in way too much gold without trying that and it gave her an ungodly amount of workers.
As I said before tallerlacuba I do not intend to attack your dear friend at any time to try and build my score up or bring her down, i was simply saying there will be some who frown upon her recent sudden success and "stroke of luck" as you may call it and choose to strike her because their armies are much bigger.

the workers barely help your resources at all in my opinion, the only thing I've ever seen them do for me is raise my socre not my output of resources. they're useless for the most part and seem only to be used for increasing of score so that one can climb the ladder here. some who dare climb that ladder must only hope that someone is down at the bottom of it supporting it so they don't fall off wink.gif

Well I'm sorry I don't know how to play the game. I miscounted my zeros when recruting workers. (I do know the trick to finding the minimum amount to spend)
I had actually been unable to log in and play for several weeks before this so I was just trying to get back into it. Though I had been wondering about how the scores were given out. I guess I know now tongue.gif I am trying my best to play this game. I had not tried to jump the ladder so suddenly. It was actually quite a shock to me this morning when I logged on and saw I was queen (I couldn't figgure out why people kept congratulating me) and stirred up so much commotion. Even I do not think it is fair. Maybe through events like this though, the game matrix can be improved for future play.
