[PWS] MOST stupid attack yet.

[Natmus]

Okay, I have seen a lot of stupid attacks on my isles lately, but this one takes the prize. I had 4 fleet coming in at my isle Yderste Holm at 4 knots, from the same isle, and all within a 10 minute period . My reserve suicide fleet is based there, as yet unused, so I decided to see what was coming before sending it to safety. 3 first attacks was 10 LWs and 10 LMs each, while the 4th had 70 LWs and 20 LMs. I decided to make a fight of it with my 320 LWs:

Did you see that? 3 first fleets had 10 cats each, but no soldiers?

His losses: 100 LW, 50 LM, 30 cats, 250 spears and 100 archers, for a gain of minor losses on my side. I hope he has a colony ship on the way as well

I'd guess that colony ship would be coming without an escort

Man, that was stupid. Congrats on a the defense.

How about this one.... ;D!

How? What?

[Natmus]

That's brilliant! How can that happen? ;D

[ashimar]

Statistical probability 0.2% or something <lol>

It can happen, if you do not have 100% attack success in the battle calculator there is the chance you lose everything in the attack. This was it. Beautiful.

Maybe (and I mean maybe) this is a sign from the Gods.... ;D!

I was surprised how stupid McPete was, a top 75 player, he kept sending small fleets to my main isle. They eventually wiped out my forces but took huge losses, if he'd sent everything in one go he'd have lost almost nothing.

I suppose he doesn't have any one single big fleet, quite surprising.

Here's my tally, most of it McPete's stuff

Project Winter Solstice, victory tally to date:

Large Warships: 356
Large Merchants: 29
Small Warships: 15
Small Merchants: 20
Spearfighters: 746
Archers: 1408
Catapults: 23
Stonethrowers: 2778

Buildings destroyed: 30 levels
