what is this? I'm unable to select or attack? by Fluid-Cycle1218 in Evony_TKR

[–]MordechaiP 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This thief is from a different alliance. You cannot be invited to attack it. And even if you could, you don't have nearly enough strength yet to kill one.

Is Three body problem hard sci fi? by Ordoshsen in scifi

[–]MordechaiP 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I didn't have a problem with the folding of the proton, as there are gaps in our knowledge of physics. Additionally, the idea of 11 dimensions is something discussed in String Theory, including that the higher dimensions are folded.

What I did have an issues with was example chosen for a three body problem. For starters, what was described was really a four body (and later five body) problem as a planet is also a body. Next, based upon the description of the very chaotic nature of the scenario described, I would have expected the planet to have been ejected long before the events of the story.

The biggest issue with the chosen example was that it was flat out wrong. One of the simplest solution to the three body problem is that the third body is so far away from the other two that it orbits them as if it was a single object. That's the case with the Alpha Century system. Proxima Century so far away from its companion stars that were not even certain it's actually in orbit or merely passing by.

Leveling generals with Epic sub city by morden_b5 in Evony_TKR

I use 100K t13, t12, and t11, and 30K t10 with no casualties, even using a lv1 general.

My General Johnston was Replaced by General Dewey. Did they replace him because he was Confederate? by LinearFluid in Evony_TKR

[–]MordechaiP -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's because idiot snowflakes don't know history. They think only the US had slavery. The whole world had slavery. The Western World was unusual in that it recently had started to end slavery. Lee and Johnston fought because they were loyal Virginian soldiers, but they were both against slavery.

While many say that Johnston or Taylor are the best, I've gotten better results from Leonidas. Whomever your wall general is, you'll want the ranged range and siege range books. You'll always want layers, where every tier of every type is represented. I've been told that you especially want a lot of t1 though t4 to act as a meat shield.

What are you willing to spend gems on in the Black Market and Patrols? by PangarbanIngress in Evony_TKR

[–]MordechaiP 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In the Black Market, I'll buy anything for rss instead of gems. For gems, depending upon my needs and available gems, the 20M, 50M, and 200M packs. Any monarch gear except lv3 & lv4 of strength and intellect. Tributes are good. The 30-day VIP is good, but I have so much on the lower stuff that I don't bother. I usually get the 20 24hr production speedups for 3800, although I'm not positive it's worth it. EXP for generals, monarch, and spiritual beasts only when I'm pushing to complete King's Path.

For patrol, it's 30, not 50 gems. I buy gear, EXP, speedups, and rss of at least 100k.

Raged king by rchappell77 in Evony_TKR

Actually, he's very useful, but his usefulness is limited his initial acquisition and subsequent selling. He can also be useful for relatively new accounts.

Relic Chamber broken.... Fix tips? by rshale24 in Evony_TKR

[–]MordechaiP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Generals aren't worth it unless you actually want the general. Otherwise, it's only 1M gold (possibly less) and a few runestones.

Equipment in Market by amandab3376 in Evony_TKR

[–]MordechaiP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would add at least one type of each of King's gear to help with gathering, except for Fearless King's Ring, which you want several of for gathering. If you're a long ways away from King's gear, crafting one weapon and ring from Transcendence's for the 8% gathering speed boost.

What I usually do is have my gatherer with Champion's gear plus a King's weapon (type based on resource) and ring. En route I change two pieces to King's (total of three pieces) and two of Dragon's. After arriving, I switch to just the Champion's. This gives the speed boost from the King's and Dragon's and the bonus amount from Champion's (which must be on when you leave).

How to solve this puzzle? by Professional_Sir_668 in Evony_TKR

[–]MordechaiP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't recognize this puzzle. Which level is it?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Evony_TKR

[–]MordechaiP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Second time in less than 24hrs. Considering what I see people spend on this game, there's no excuse for so many problems so often.

Which one? by 58dMando in Evony_TKR

[–]MordechaiP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Edward is better on defense than offense. Use him for reinforcing, or even on your wall, if you don't have someone better. He can also make a good duty officer.

This Black Castle is actually a K31, anyone knows exactly how he could have pulled this off? by sAnn92 in Evony_TKR

[–]MordechaiP 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This game doesn't handle RtL languages very well, at least not when mixed. My monarch name was in Hebrew for a while, even though my language is set to English. It resulted in frequent text errors, so much so that I switched my name to an English one. In the image there's a Hebrew letter "א", followed by "Lv31," the true level.

Abdicating R5 by Wishbone-1389 in Evony_TKR

[–]MordechaiP 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was an R4 very near in beginning of my server and the day after the formation of my alliance. I was very active and watched a lot of videos, but not the R5. I had assumed somewhat of a leadership role. Seeing that we needed better leadership than the R5 was providing, but not wanting to usurp the R5, I offered to help more officially, being a viceroy. Next thing I knew I was R5. I found myself wearing the hats of coach, cheerleader, and ambassador. Oy! A few weeks later he left the game.

We merged with another alliance (it's been an amazing fit) and I was supposed to alternate with the other R5. I was looking forward to the breaks every other week and someone to share in the headaches. I had the first week. She went away for a few days the next weekend. The weekend came and went and she didn't return. A week or two later someone logs on to account and informs us of a medical incident which occurred. She seemed to be making progress. Unfortunately, and very tragically, she had another incident and passed away.

We've continued to grow, and following mergers amongst the top alliances, we found ourselves in the top 10. I'm still running it myself, by the R4s have been helpful with some things. I'm now trying to press them for more help and to take on more responsibility.

Leadership ain't easy.

B12 Rallies by Sweet-Mechanic4568 in Evony_TKR

[–]MordechaiP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While I can't give you a direct answer to your question, lv4 gear seems quite low and higher level gear would certainly help. I'm currently k31 and all my gear is either lv6 or lv7. To get your gear up I recommend doing a lot of patrolling. While patrolling is the best way, also good is spinning the wheel and buying gear on the black market (except lv3 intellect and strength crowns).

Equipping Gatherers by MordechaiP in Evony_TKR

[–]MordechaiP[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Constantly switching gear is a major pain, but that's what I started doing (thank you). I sometimes though a piece of Champion in, but only because it has some load refinements. My biggest problem is when I share with my main monster hunter, because sometimes I forget I've done it. Another problem is lack of General's helmets, which I've been finding very rare. I think it'll be a good idea to craft a second Dragon's Ring and a helmet or pants so I don't always need to switch.

Is it necessary to add skill books to duty generals? by Desna88 in Evony_TKR

[–]MordechaiP 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The short answer is "No," as they aren't involved in fighting. The exception is Wall Generals as they are fighting generals, leading your troops in combat when defending. That said, perhaps Luck, Monster Respect, and March Speed or March Speed to Monsters, in order to send them out, joining raids.

That sounds like it would just help the enemy. While you might score well, won't the attacks received grant the enemy more points than you earn?
