I can't figure out how you guys do it. You have enough troops out to stop most people from breaking, but then you have bazillions more in the Market to pull to create major net. I can make enough to repel most people, but not enough to make my net jump. Any strats on this?

What kind of strat are you trying and what's your current build look like?

I sell everything I can before I start my run except my attacking troop on the market. Then I sell the rest on the bazaar. I attack, then sell all of my attacking troop on the market. I sell the rest on the bazaar. Then seppuku, gather resources and buy eveything I can off the bazaar.
It ain't about how hard ya hit. It's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward. That's how winning is done!

I just need the best Market storing strat, or one for a Hawker to use. I'm not really playing right now, so I have no builds. ;)

In general my suggestion would be to store all but your attacking troop right before you run. After you grab land then fill your defense back up again. Switch attacking troops every run so no 1 troop type gets left out.

The more info you can give about what your doing the more detailed I can get.

I do what Japan does... it works really well :)

I never bother about defending land though? I only care about the amount of land I have during a run hehehe

Courvein, you took the words from my mouth. Land doesn't really matter cause you can get it back.

Yeah, land isn't really important right away, as long as you can get it back. After a while, yeah, you'll want to for an emperorship bid, but not at the start.
