Ok. this is not really a bug, but it is an exploit. I've noticed lately I've been being challenged by people who have never played a game before, and then they just don't make any moves, and it practially takes me out of the game for an hour. Since they challenge me, I can't retreat or anything until they put in their move, and since they don't make a move I get stuck.

This should be fixed. Trolls can just make new accounts, challenge people, and take them out of the game for an hour.

My game is no longer loading...

All the tabs work except the command tab, which is the one I need to actually be able to play.

The last thing I did was get challenged, accept, place my moves, and then I didn't receive any information back at all, nor did I see the results of the battle. Now I can't do anything :S

mine "decides" when it wants to show things

I don't know if its a bug or who I'm challenging but I keep attacking people and they never issue orders.

So I just sit there waiting, and half an hour is a long wait for the defender to retreat.

I just won a battle and lost $1000. How pathetic is that?

This is true, same happening for me :( Just stuck while some nub is trying to decide what moves to make or has just walked off. I'm stranded!

If you wipe out an army and win a decisive victory, even though you lost more troops and loot, then attacking an empty army should be considered wiping it out. Again, less loot, but same principle needs to apply to whole battle.

Plus this might actually bring some strategy back to the game. People will be less inclined to just buy one massive army.

For the last around twenty battles, no matter how much loot I win or lose, I always have exactly 9500 when I go to base.

edit: haha, as soon as I posted this, it started working properly again... wish I had posted this twenty battles ago

the command screen is blank, so i can't fight. when i try to challenge someone the game tells me to log in, but i'm already logged in.

Is it possible to have a default win when the challenged let the timer run out? It's annoying to wait an hour and then get nothing.

Like have the attackers units attack anyway, but with half the damage.

I recently won a match, and stayed in the warzone, though no one else can see me, or challenge me.

My brother got this aswell! What the hell?

I'm going to start reporting people who i think are making new accounts simply to attack people with higher level armies and never issue an attack. This is quite annoying. I posted earlier that I thought this was happening and now I think my suspicions have been confirmed.

Today I was attacked by elfman262 with an army of 10 of each starter unit and he just sat there without issuing any orders until his attack timed out. When I looked at his profile, it claimed he had not been in any battles, had not won any battles, killed any units, lost any units etc, and the account had just been created today.

I really wish there was something you could do about this.

While I'm sure this is somehow part of the game, I'm rather curious about how I can win and still be really bad off afterwards. How is it possible that I win and then after the battle I only have half as much money as before?

The game does not allow me to have 8 or 9 of a unit, so that must be a glitch.

Seriously, I can't find anyone to fight against. I don't know if it's just bad luck but almost EVERYBODY I see has an army with much more value than mine. Even the green ones. I've tried adjusting my army cost and it's always the same.

I know you don't want people to fight weaker players but I seriously can't find anyone to play against. So I have to wait for someone to challenge me. Sometimes they're having the same problem though so I end up fighting someone much weaker anyways.

In terms of victory, eliminated units take priority over cash earned. So even if you kill 30000 loot worth of troops but don't eliminate any groups your enemy can still one so long as they kill one of your weaker groups completley.

This is happening all too frequently. Command screen is simply empty. Is there a legitimate reason for this (an update in progress?), or is this just a bug?

Another thing is the note box getting stuck in the middle of the screen, and I mean it doesnīt go away, even if I press x (to close the box). Only after refreshing the page it goes away, but not always. Itīs especially bothersome, when Iīm being attacked; I canīt see whoīs challenging, and I canīt click the "accept this challenge" button. This problem appeared just recently, so it could be a temporary browser error (using Firefox), or something. Has this happened to anyone else?

EDIT: The problem with the notice box getting stuck seems to be fixed.

I just won a battle and lost 40k! Why do I keep losing money from wins?

The new feature about only attacking people who aren't weaker than you is flawed. Why should I attack if the person is guaranteed to be stronger than I am?

I am also having trouble with the command tab being blank

I'm having this exact issue. I've been having it on and off for a couple days now at least, and its been 'on' for about a day now. I wanted to play some today but it absolutely wont load. I try clearing browser data, refreshing, logging out and back in... it just wont work :(

Help us?

EDIT: Mine decided to work again. Yay!

SECOND EDIT: Its not working again this morning...

Also I found an 'oddity'. What are the standings even based on anymore? They dont seem to be based on any of the stats that they list, not bank, not wins, not cash, .... none of the attributes are in descending order... its confusing

I just won a battle, my earnings from the battle was 59k, I go back to home base to reinforce my troops. I look at my money, still 41k, same as I had before the battle. Somehow I didn't gain any money from the battle.

I am leaving my account untouched for a day or two in case someone in charge wants to take a look at what happened ;)

I don't really care about the money, I'm having fun just playing around with cheap armies as well, but it's a bug and if possible should be fixed for those who do care :D

Hey I was trying for Berserker and I beat the same account 10 times but didn't get awarded the badge. And I'm at 113 battles and didn't get Genre Veteran.

Anyway this can be fixed?

When this happens, I've found you can solve the problem by opening up the game in a new browser. It's a workaround until something more official gets put into place.

EDITED SO YOU WILL ALSO SEE A NOTIFICATION

Profoundly pedantic complaint here, and it's not even strictly a bug. The description attached to the "Unconquerable" badge is misspelled. It currently says "vini, vidi, vici", when it should be "veni, vidi, vici".

Apologies, but I study Latin, so that sort of thing really irks me.

What does that mean anyway?

Caesar sent it in a message back to Rome after he crushed the Gauls (I think) in battle. It means:

"I came, I saw, I conquered".

I randomly lost about $100,000. I still have the units I purchased, but my Cash On Hand is listed at -$95,000.

Also, the Romans didn't use shotguns.

I've just gone over the "100 battles" mark and haven't recieved the 'Genre Veteran' badge.

It should still show competition in the same "ballpark" as you. If it's only showing orange and red names, try scouting. Personally, I try to always attack orange.

I'm gonna count this as a bug, but every opponent that was marked green has been an unwinable fight today.

Either they had people who were an entire tier above mine, or they had twice the number of men at the same tier that countered my guys, or they had one stack of 50 one tier up, but I had nothing that could kill it.

I've actually lost over half of my treasure in 3 fights.

If you could get the matchmaking a little more refined, it would help. Also I get in trouble for retreating from these unwinable matches, and an hour is a long time to wait, maybe change that time a little bit?

the screen for the command page isnt showing for me

I'm not sure how, but this is happening to both of us, except I am constantly being challenged by people who's armies are much more powerful than mine. About the same cost, but it's a completely unwinable fight.

When I use the scout function to search for a particular opponent, I get the normal profile/genre wars screen, except it is blank, instead of containing the usual information.
