Ok, I will launch everything I have at him asap. He will wipe out my army but I will at least kill some of his units for you. He has a lvl 10 wall so be prepared. Are rams and catapults worth having? I am in a sulpher crisis right now, I need to get working on that so I can build a sick army.

Next time you are going to launch an attack that is closer to one of us, we can pull all our resources out of a colony or town, let you pillage and occupy it, then you can launch the attack from there so they don't have so much time to prepare. I hope you have enough ships with you, he is going to have a good number of them I believe. I have 18 ram ships I will send at him along with 60 swords 3 doctors 3 cooks 10 phalanxes and 15 slingers. I should take a bit of a dent from him. His wall though fucks me up...
My spy got caught or else I would give you an update on his troops, another is on his way. I will launch my attack when all my troops arrive in about 2 hours, from there attack shouldn't take more then 40 min. If he is on my island I don't need to beat his sea fleet to attack him correct?

build some rams, to ram the town wall. the higher the level, the more possible breaches. you got any upgrades on your army yet?
also if his town hall level is higher than his town wall level, that is bad new for him, because it doesn't help him as much as it should.

also, if you don't want him to get your resources by pillaging you, keep your trading port at level 3 or below (yes for the entire game, unless you have a very strong defensive army).
if he does attack you can always destroy it completely which limits the amount of stuff he can get from you.

DAMN I didnt see that he had ships also!!! fuck!
My troops should attack in the next 30 minutes, we'll find out if he harbor is still blocked.
Among trying to get a 6th town, I am also working on developing a state of the art navy. Time, time, and more time.

yeah i was unable to attack him due to the fact that he has a navy protecting his ports. I am playing the game a bit different. Where I am only a defender at this time, but I have never been attacked because of my internal strength
I should be developing a decent sized Navy within the next week or so.
PM me those coordinates and I will make sure he pays. Especially if he keeps attacking you.
And this is a note to everyone. DO not worry about building up a navy unless u plan on doing lots of war. It costs a lot of your income and does very little to help in the early stages

well you're lucky you are on the same island. I couldnt get through because he had boats
and thats why u couldnt pillage any goods. his navvy is protecting his harbor.
so until I maximize my strength I wont be able to completely dismantle people. Only on the ground right now. My navy is a work in progress

nah just ships protecting his harbor. you cant pillage for items unless u first defeat his navy defending the port.
best way to attack solid players
a) spy harbor, defeat and blockade
b) send in your troops
PS... im still learning too. I am a pretty peaceful member, I supply all the resources I need for building, I only attack people if they dare attack me or someone in the alliance

Uh oh, hes retaliating now, fuck. I attacked his other town (sulpher) and would have won, but he got troops there from his other towns before the battle finished and i didn't have enough men to win it. Now he has my harbor blockaded and is sending units to pillage me. I destroyed my port so he can't get much but fuck, I need sulpher so bad.

That is why you dont attack stronger people than you. hahaha
you didnt need to demolish your port, he can still rob you. it comes from your total inventory.
dont worry too much, let the attacks pass and then rebuild. or start working on another colony and hope he doesnt find it.
I have only gone to war with 1 person this whole time.
You pulled a George Bush. Now retreat and rebuild
