Hi !

Is it normal to conquer a territory of 2.3B (and have waited a long time to get them) and then be getting a draft of 15M, not saying my "Increased Draft Sizes" is at 40% ???

dont understand here, sorry

Yes, there's a number of factors that contribute to the size of drafts, one of them being your income, and if you've collected more drafts prior

ok, but the thing is that if you want to get 2.3B armies, you have to wait for it, without conquering, and pick up the draft coming, which were also 15M.
but that means if i have to wait again to get another 2B of armies - as i am _ and knowing my income is 61K - it's going to be 10 hours and i got 5 or 6 othets at 2B+

So this is normal... but not fair to me, sorry (without beind rude...)

Unfortunately yes, this is normal

well, ok...thank you

I guess idle is not for me anymore then... going to do something else instead then.

thanks again

Well drafts are still very valuable. By collect each one that spawns, you could potentially reduce that 10+ hours to about 1 hour.

On Far Land, when I had about 10B total armies to kill, with my income, my calculations brought me to that taking close to 35 days to complete. With drafts, and any mercenaries I still had, I managed to reduce that time to about 2-3 days to complete.

Yep, normal. That is the essence of Idle.

Do something. Wait. Do something. Wait. Do something. Wait.

And by midgame it becomes:

Do something. Wait. Wait. Wait. Do something. Wait. Wait. Wait. Do something. Wait. Wait. Wait.

And I could write out the endgame, but I think you get the point.

But here's an interesting point ... if you start using the Powers, it becomes:

Do something. Wait. Wait. Wait. Do something. Wait. Wait. Wait. Lose patience & use a power. Do something. Do something. Do something. Do something. Do something. Do something. Do something. Do something. And then eventually you can't escape the Wait. Wait. Wait.

Seriously though, the game is based on waiting long periods of time for resources to accumulate.

Yes, if you could get the resources fast you:
1. wouldn't be idling
2. wouldn't be using powers cause you lost your patience (and therefore not buying powers)

yes i get it but that's kind from you all to explain it to me. maybe i want the things to move a little faster and i am not patienent enough, there, you may be right, i admit. For example i cant wait days to afford buying mercenaries so i "buy" the inspire thing, then i can play several turns and then get a high reward drafts. Sometimes also using the powers but trying to save them for the next map to com which would be more difficult.

well i dont know...i think i will finish the map i am on - AD 1045: Roads of Silk and Iron,4.66% - and then decide if i want to continue or not and go back to the classic games.

anyway i am not criticising at all, i really enjoy to play and i am thankful to you for providing me this web site where everyone is so kind and helpful, always trying to help me when there is something i dont understand or whatever else.

hey by the way i just got a 19M draft, getting better !

notv realted but what are the "challenges and battles" , they are available using the autoconquer thing (which i dont want to use as i want to decide whether or not i want to conquer a territory) but i am just curious

Challenges are basically levels where you try to beat an AI opponent using the same rules as the normal levels, but you can only use your advancement. Interaction is not allowed in challenge levels. Winning a challenge level awards you with AP.

In battle, you are placed against other players in a race to complete an Idle level. Interaction is allowed here but, your advancements are also used. Placing high can get you great prizes with 1st getting an Epic Artifact.

hummm didnt get it all - surely due to my english - but i will look at that maybe, if i decide to take the autoconquer which i dislike in fact.
