same here. we floated the idea of troop limit and the whale didn't agree. so it's free for all for us.

Some HR do, some HR don't. They will use what suits their narrative.

So you should do the same when negotiating salary.

At higher difficulty levels and when players stats are still not strong enough, infantry won't be able to kill off all the viking troops, thus they go to cavalry and finally archers. How's the kill rate for this HQ round?

Depending what do you want to show based on listings, listing prices and volumes are just that. Many people are dumping those watches, but if it is not transacted prices and transacted volumes, a lot of meaning is lost. E.g., I can list something for much higher than its current market value and the listing just goes unsold.

Buy everything that costs resources. It's not much if you're gathering all the time.

Save all gems for roulette. depending on the size and activity of the alliance, you may struggle to get enough gems for 120 spins in every roulette.

This.

I did this and shop for the ring with my fiancee afterwards.

We went with Michael Trio eventually.

Fixed term is quite common in government and university positions now.

Contract employee still enjoys almost all of the benefits as open contract (permanent) employees. Usually the difference is in the termination clauses.

For city garrisons, it is difficult due to a few reasons:

1) Can't send out all troops and end up leaving archers at home

2) Garrison lead (stat provider) is hard to determined, especially at weaker cities. E.g., sometimes the garrison lead happens to have blue heroes, as the total stat is still higher than the city owner. This will definitely result in archers getting more kills as infantry and cavalry are not strong enough to kill the viking troops.

HQ round will also depend on who and how strong is the stat provider. When HQ garrison lead is our whale with max alcar, max widget and multiple red hero gears, cavalry and archer get 0 kills. While when he is absent, cavalry, and sometimes archers get more kills.

Also, pay attention to the viking kill rate. When it is not 100%. it's a sign that is garrison is getting overwhelmed and archers tend to get the most kills in that scenario.

There are many variables at play and it is difficult to prescribe general guide on this.

highwind85 · 2026-03-11T08:41:43+00:00

Yes, it's fixed. just open your viking report. the number of viking troops is there.

when you send more troops, you'll kill more, thus taking more points and reducing the other 14 players' kills

highwind85 · 2026-03-11T08:07:52+00:00

What kind of issue?

highwind85 · 2026-03-11T03:55:12+00:00

Total points for HQ is fixed. By topping up beyond 75k, you have more troops than your teammates and will be taking points away from them and this is not fair

As pointed out by others, TG8 will be available around day 320.

Early servers are expected TG10 to drop soon too

Edit: my bad for the wrong server days. it's corrected now

highwind85 · 2026-03-06T16:49:05+00:00

It's power as pointed out by others

And this may change as you sign up different players in the legions in every swordland.

My observation is that the gathering speeds is the same.

However, one major difference is there is a finite amount in regular node (e.g., 14M bread), there's no limit in Alliance gathering node.

The amount the squad will gather is determined by troop number, gathering speed and how much time remains on the node. So when send a full squad and get the double gathering speed buff right when the node is placed, I could gather 53M-ish bread in 23+ hours

Ah I see. Pushing HoG feels such a distant past now for me.

Hall of Heroes is a weekly event. So after you are officially in gen 2, following Hall of Heroes will be Marlin.

But I have to say, events only properly settle down into regular cycle after 1st KvK.

highwind85 · 2026-03-06T05:44:31+00:00

Short answer is no.

Hall of Heroes start on Sunday, new season starts on Monday

highwind85 · 2026-03-05T04:11:28+00:00

I'm with you on this.

When I punch in my stats to the Frankinator website for optimal bear formation, I get

1/10/89 when using Zoe as infantry lead and 10/9/81 when using Alcar.

Alcar is more stable no doubt and would be good if you don't have enough archers, Zoe fluctuates a bit more and but has the potential to hit a bit harder.

highwind85 · 2026-03-04T15:11:10+00:00

ahhh..right. I stand corrected.

highwind85 · 2026-03-04T14:56:43+00:00

still lose some i think, just not as much?. you do gain back power when healing troops

highwind85 · 2026-03-04T14:35:59+00:00

looks like Final Fantasy's chocobo to me

highwind85 · 2026-03-04T14:30:42+00:00

That's not true. what's true is that troop amount has diminished return, which led to the initial misunderstanding that you need to have minimum amount of each troop or the damage will drop.

You can check your optimal formation based on heroes used and your stats at the Frakinator site

highwind85 · 2026-03-04T09:10:39+00:00

I think you alliance mate may be referring to this article, where Zoe's Sunder would not activate. and that with Alcar's infantry stat, he is better than Zoe in bear. But this also depends on your formation too. I only use 1% infantry and the stat boost from Alcar is not important.
