Um... yeah...

You have to click on the Hawks tab under Diplomacy on the left toolbar. Then you click the pulldown and select Prepare Hawks and perform it.

This belongs in the Help section too.

You must prepare hawks to allow any attacks into other regions if you are using troops. If you play other promi games, it's the equivelent of "Open Time Gate", or something similar. By the way, welcome to FAF!

Please tell us that you're not kill happy and a truce-breaker.
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!

'Tis good to hear, the first part at least. But why would you kill someone if you had no quarrel with them?

Oh, well my friend, it is nothing at all. You should attack for your land back. (Not if they are online) Then build foragers with some huts (not alot) and forage for your turns. It is a good strategy to use while you explore the game and learn new things. If you have any questions message them to me in-game, (Modest Mole.)
Good luck,

build some foragers and do some forageing with the food you earn you can sell in bazaar and that will cover your income loss, buy some troops get your land back and get barracks. i would send you some aid but you deleted your acount...or got killed?

anyhow good luck! :o

You want to either build enough foragers so that you're gaining food, and the rest barracks (with a few huts) or most all foragers and a few huts.

Killed my foot. You deleted, or someone deleted you. The last actions on your news are attacks by you, not by others. Did you swear or send inappropriate material? Beatles or somebody might have zapped you for that...

It was deleted, then. If you've been killed, you can still log on, you just can't do anything.
