If we consider this combat training, I have a theory that the high levels are harder to take off than low level buildings. Toughness is comparable to level or cost or something, perhaps?

That sounds plausible indeed. In the past I've reduced a level 11 building down to 1 in a single attack with 5 cats. And now 8 cats 20->18. Makes sense, as higher levels are so much more expensive. And explains why the big guys attack with huuuge numbers of cats.

I think that's a really good point, and worth the trip alone. Should we be compiling a list of "top warfare tips" listing things like this and best practice coordinating attacks etc? A massive learning for me out of this is to always send a small warship out afterwards to scout immediately after an attack!

But make sure it doesn't get there before your main attacking fleet, unless you want to know exactly how it looked before your strike. Also, I think we can now safely assume that three waves against the same building are not wasted if it's a level 20 building...

Absolutely - I did of course mean a large warship!

Absolutely - I did of course mean a large warship! That's a good idea! I've only ever used small ones for spying, and then had to get the timing right... But this is a lot easier.

Second attack didn't work too well either. I think I will go back to farming my safe isles, until more cats arrive from Kyholm.
If anybody needs me, I'll be at Moe's.
