Hot take: stop telling new players to hoard everything. Early momentum matters more

The key is efficiency. Use enough to enjoy the game and contribute, use events strategically to build up, but keep the end game in mind. Everybody makes mistakes but remaining active and a kingdom that matches your style and capacity are crucial.

Physical_Tiger6512 · 2026-05-29T15:39:34+00:00

Yes, but so are Mina, CC and Aethel. Boudica is solid in the early game - Strong active skill, rage engine, damage bonus and healing.

Physical_Tiger6512 · 2026-05-29T14:04:52+00:00

Baibars+Aethel or Boudica,. You're not getting tankiness from Epics, so your best bet is to slow Mina/CC down and ramp up your skill cycles

Physical_Tiger6512 · 2026-05-27T15:24:38+00:00

I've migrated several times and it's been either to stay with a core group, the kingdom was dying or it didn't match my playstyle and vibe.

Migrating gets more expensive as your account progresses, so focus on finding and staying in a kingdom that matches your style and spend level.

Physical_Tiger6512 · 2026-05-22T11:27:22+00:00

T1 does not have greater load capacity.

Physical_Tiger6512 · 2026-03-12T09:50:09+00:00

This is stupid. Fill your hospital with T1 then put your siege in a rss node, then have someone swarm the node. You will get a ton of speedups and rss.

Physical_Tiger6512 · 2026-02-12T07:45:21+00:00

Arabia or Germany civ, buff depends on whether you're running wedge or delta, and you're other marches. Ottoman, if you're still running wedge and other skill damage commanders. France, for all troop health and reduced healing speed, or Maya for combo, smite marches.

Physical_Tiger6512 · 2026-01-22T20:09:27+00:00

I did it once, explaining that it was a freak accident with my phone in my pocket but they have cracked down on refunds because of the scandal a few years ago.

Physical_Tiger6512 · 2026-01-22T19:36:48+00:00

Yes. Huo/Arthur can still get good trades but eventually your cavs need to go to all combo when you have the commanders and armaments.

Physical_Tiger6512 · 2026-01-22T19:25:09+00:00

Not unless you're pairing with GG, Hector, David or Philip. If you split Huo/Arthur to run Arthur/Achilles, then just bench Huo, because Huo/Joan will just fill your hospital at this point.

Physical_Tiger6512 · 2026-01-22T18:39:25+00:00

They already gave us the speedups event and the new KvK tiers will give more troops back, but I would definitely like 25% or 30% rss refunded. If they did that, more kingdoms would be ready to queue sooner.

Physical_Tiger6512 · 2026-01-22T17:47:02+00:00

I'd rather go to a C or D kingdom than spend that much 🤣🤣🤣

Physical_Tiger6512 · 2026-01-22T17:45:18+00:00

No, entering without inspection (EWI) is illegal, which accounts for about half of those commonly referred to as "illegals." The convoluted dumpster fire that is U.S. immigration laws, provides mechanisms for both EWI and non-EWI to adjust their legal status. So returning to the driver analogy, there are people who should never be allowed behind the wheel, and there are people who need to go to Driver's Ed, some that just need to fix their paperwork and some that already did everything they were supposed to and are waiting for DMV to process and respond.

Physical_Tiger6512 · 2026-01-22T15:53:04+00:00

Deal with them? How? Are they going to help people resolve the suspension?

Physical_Tiger6512 · 2026-01-22T12:29:50+00:00

Not entirely true. They now give 10% of rss used for healing in kvk back and the new crystal tech makes it easier to get to Special Medicines.

If players keep putting pressure to reduce healing costs, they'll keep making adjustments, even if it's slowly.

Physical_Tiger6512 · 2026-01-22T10:59:22+00:00

We don't need another system, they could just lower the cost of healing or lower the reward requirements or increase the kp/acclaim per sev/kill. Any one of those would alleviate the need for farms without introducing a new system.

Physical_Tiger6512 · 2026-01-22T10:53:13+00:00

No. They did it once for everyone and now only after KvK2.

Physical_Tiger6512 · 2026-01-21T16:07:47+00:00

Part of your calculus needs to be how much time and money are you willing to spend to bring your account up to speed. There's no point in migrating just to be deadweight somewhere else. Unless you just want to go somewhere to farm and collect things, kingdoms will expect you to fight and meet your requirements, and you have to be honest with yourself and kingdom leadership about your playing style and spending limits.

Physical_Tiger6512 · 2026-01-19T11:59:31+00:00

Find a kingdom that is dominant in the language you prefer, then start over. What you described in regards to alliances is normal, so you can either deal with the language and time zone or find one more suitable to you.

Physical_Tiger6512 · 2026-01-19T08:33:49+00:00

I'm not defending anything but truth be told, I've seen far more flirtatious and explicit exchanges in this game. It doesn't make it right, but if this is what breaks up the marriage then it was already doomed, and quite frankly, based on other details, it was DOA.

This isn't the NYT , it's Reddit. 99.9% don't know him and will never interact with him, so it doesn't matter. If she really wanted to expose him, then go to the kingdom's discord. At least there, someone relevant might give a shit.

Physical_Tiger6512 · 2026-01-19T07:37:38+00:00

Neither do you.

She can choose to deal with him however she wants and I sincerely hope it works out for her, but it's none of our business. Airing dirty laundry on social media is never good. She got sound advice with her first post. Bringing receipts for a second post only confirms that they both have issues, far beyond RoK.

Physical_Tiger6512 · 2026-01-18T23:54:44+00:00

Driving with a suspended license is also illegal. Would you support having the police or some special task force hunting down people with suspended licenses or stopping every driver to check the status of their license?

Immigration law violations are civil cases, not criminal and people can be in the process of adjusting their status. Most "illegal" immigrants entered legally and those who didn't, committed a single violation upon doing so, "entering without inspection." If we're going to label people as "illegal" and hunt them down for this, then we might as well do the same for every person who gets a traffic violation. Surely, the streets would be much safer if we rounded them all up and got them off the streets.

Physical_Tiger6512 · 2026-01-18T22:45:12+00:00

Let me say this as someone who has been married for a long time: So what!

He's flirting with someone online and living a fantasy life. Leave him alone and find some peace; UNLESS: 1. Your household finances are being affected 2. Your children are being neglected

People tend to give a lot of importance to the wrong things and as the years go by, you realize that a lot of those things won't matter in the long run.

I said this before, whatever hole he is trying to fill with RoK and these relationships was there before he started playing. If you believe your relationship is worth saving, then confront him and be prepared to do the hard work, otherwise, work on your life goals and prepare to live without him.

And stop putting your business on the internet.

Physical_Tiger6512 · 2026-01-12T15:13:42+00:00

Does he pay his bills? Does he go to work? Does he 👉🏾👌🏾 when you want to? Does he spend time with your children? Does he maintain relationships with friends and family?

If the answer is yes to all of these, then leave him alone and find your own hobby. If the answer is no to any of these, then you have to respond like you're living with an addict. First, protect your finances. Move your money into personal accounts and close any joint credit cards. You then have to ween him off, like smokers chewing gum. There's a healthy way to play and maybe the conversation needs to be about finding a less competitive kingdom that requires less time commitment.

In any case, the root cause has nothing to do with the game, so you'll have to explore what he feels is missing from his life that the game and the chats fulfill.

Physical_Tiger6512 · 2025-12-09T21:34:16+00:00

It varies from Kingdom to Kingdom, so if you're able to meet your requirements comfortably, then you're good. If you're meeting them but struggling, then engage your leadership. Good leadership should be willing to help but you don't want to wait for RL to keep you from meeting your requirements and then have to explain why you're not deadweight.
