You can see who attacked you and when by looking at the Event History in the News Tab of your Town Hall. Once that 24 hours is up and if they have not plundered you in that time they can not plunder unless they successfully attack again. So while the attacker might have some gain if they defeat you they also risk losing units while you lose none.Įach player can only attack you once per 24 hours and any time during that 24 hours of a successful attack they can plunder one time only. And so one player can have very high level military great buildings while another player has none.Īlso remember that as the defender you do not lose units, neither are they damaged but as the attacker units can be damaged and lost. While this has eliminated having players many ages apart it does not mean there are not more or less powerful players relative to each other in the hood. As such you will be placed with other players in and around the same technology you are on and so you will all be in the same age, though there are some cities that will still have an age apart between players(ref link above). Where you are in the tech tree is the only determining factor in merges. Neighborhood merging is flat only in that it pertains to research. So if your Terrace Farm is plundered the attacker has a chance at 10 free forge points. Atlantis Museum - This building gives you a chance to double the resources you plunder, including forge points.Voyager V1 - The first three times you plunder a building you get three random goods of that building's age.There are also two Great Buildings(GB) which are an incentive to plunder, one relates to goods, the other to goods or forge points. There are other reasons but not as common as those such as being in an enemy guild, revenge, just likes fighting etc. Some just care about one or the other, or a combination of battle points and goods or forge points(fp's).

There are three main reasons why you are attacked. Guild(GvG) about two years later then Guild Expedition(GE or GEx) Championships two years after that, attacking and plundering thy neighbor remains part of the game to this day. And though the game had moved on to Guild v. Player(PvP) if you will though you fight their AI so it's not truly PvP. Forge of Empires(FoE) began in April 2012 exclusivity as a game based on competition and plundering between neighbors or Player v.
