Hall of Fame tomorrow.

This thread has become quite lively since Amy said something about checking the first post. I should check what the new prize is.

Don't do it ... it's only going to ruin your day when you win 10 Pillars ... and all the friends and neighbours are green with envy.

Another day, another daily special. But even several of the other prizes are helpful for the game I’m playing.

Hmm hall of fame. I might use a couple footballs to tackle some yards while having a good chance at a good daily specials. Hum.

 

[DeletedUser96901]

5 footballs as prize

10 pillars with no upgrades.....?

Many people in my guild are just going for Shrines of Knowledge.

Well, probably they'll get more FP-generating stuff than those that hunt pillar upgrades. But, placing that many SoKs requires a lot of space. I start to get cramped with all of the nice GBs I have, with housing and supplies buildings to fuel RQs and produce goods, and a lil extra. Where would I play 10 SoKs?

Most kikely that 30MB is just the loader, the other code and assets are loaded afterwards. It's still possible that assets are relatively simple procedure generated structures, or are transferred as compressed metadata to generate client side.

There was unpackaging sequence right at the start. Either case, game that looks as good if not better than CS:GO for PC, makes it incredible.

Which GBs have you got, if you don't mind my asking?

Chasing SoKs as someone without many is good. Those with towns already full of them are better with PoH.

I'm going after SoKs to change all those terrace farms and tribal squares for more FP, I'll be in 15FP plus once all of it is changed.

I thought Terrace Farms had the same FP output per square as the Shrines of Knowledge?

No. 6 SoKs can be placed inside terrace farm, including road, which is 6 FP against 5

SoK is one of the best SB out there ... although many set pieces include attack and goods aswell (better than coins).
PoH will have a long shelf life ... so everyone should get at least one (seeing that you're getting a 50% discount).

You only need 3 DS to get a PoH (the same as 3 SoK) .

TF is one of the worst space-killers of FoE ... but most of the Top 10 players have a few.

I find LotR too hefty for re-reading

I seem to recall that one criticism of LotR with which Tolkien agreed was that it should have been longer.

Much better.
I've always enjoyed hefty tomes like Roots, Chesapeake and Trinity.

 

[DeletedUser111589]

I like light reading. Heck, I don't remember details from my favourite books which are all easy stuff.

As a relative Noob I appreciate discussions like this. Hearing everyone’s questions, opinions and comments helps me take a longer view. Thanks.

my kingdom for a passing quarterback.... this rushing offence is terrible!

Hi guys. Wow I haven;t been on here for a while

EDIT: Wow my scout is an expert at driving backwards

Quite a few, actually. ZAC, ToR, LoA, ToB, CF (finally). I also have a black tower and a pavilion as big things I might get rid of eventually. BT is current age, pavilion is previous age but it's good for happiness and supplies.
