    Ok, that will be the official number for the regular troop cap this year:). Since the troop cap will be layered this year those three levels will be:

    550,000

    750,000

    1,000,000

    As explained in the official thread for the layered troop cap, these extra levels are attained only be successful attacks and/or defenses.

    I am not sure if its a good idea as we need to balance out the game rather than making it one sided. I was thinking along the sides of Auction(again) but this time we wait for a bit and the auction can only be between the two losing teams. From the very first season we have seen that one team would get really strong and keep there dominance till the end and to break that we will have to come up with the ideas where the losing team has the chance to come back.

    Now we can have the troop cap but what would it do? i might be right at the top sitting and hording bonuses and keep on getting stronger and stronger where as the players who are in the middle or at the bottom would keep on getting weaker and weaker so i think we should change that and give other players the chance to compete with the top players.

    What do you think?

    I like the idea if it means nobody is just sitting on the top cap with nothing else to do :D

    The troop cap is 400,000. The other numbers are only if you battle somebody else. If nobody comes close enough to you, you are stuck at 400,000. This is done for a reason and it is based off the past seasons.

    That said, do not go above that cap (400,000) or there will be a penalty (I lowered you under 400,000 this time). This time the penalty will be severe, but it will also help to balance the game. For every 1,000 troops over the cap, you will give 5,000 troops each to a player on the opposing nations. Thus, anybody going over the cap will be helping their enemies. Just taking off troops has never been enough of a penalty to stop it. In fact, it was sometimes used for an advantage for somebody to drop down in to others ranges.

    A detail or two could still be tweaked after seeing it in action, but I think overall this will help:).

    Ok, we need an exact system for being over the cap. The number should not be as soon as you do it, but when you ask me to lower you back under it. Please note your exact troop number when you do that. If I am not able to make the change soon and the number grows after that due to time, we can go back to that first number.

    As a result, all three nations will receive extra troops from the Ogre King:). The leaders will decide who gets what.
