| Posted : Saturday, 13 August 2005 - 00:20 Aren't catapults supposed to NOT get the tower range bonus anymore? My opponent has 80 in a tower and the shadow is showing that they get the extra range but he hasn't used them yet so I don't know. If I had known I could have turned this around instead of losing my 50 cats to 700 ballista. 
PS: While making excuses for my "sticky thread".

| Posted : Saturday, 13 August 2005 - 04:48 Well he was able to attack my ballista in my tower with his cats using his tower but I don't think he got an option to destroy my tower from his tower. He only killed a few ballista and took very little retale but that might be a good way to make a first hit without suffering many losses.

| Posted : Saturday, 13 August 2005 - 22:29 Well I still don't know for sure because the defend message doesn't give the location of the cats but my opponent did just destroy my tower at (89,100) with cats and I'm fairly certain that he did it from a tower at(80,102). Again I did think the cats were reduced to range 9 with no tower bonus and if they do still get the tower bonus, I could have turned this lopsided war around because I did get 51 cats in the field before my opponent and it would have been a matter of eliminating his range advantage with them which apparently I could have done from my towers instead of risking the cats and then losing them as already mentioned.

| Posted : Saturday, 13 August 2005 - 22:50 PS: It's true (i.e. catapults still get the siege tower range bonus). I just finished destroying my opponent's tower at (80,102) from my tower at (92,107) with 16 cats at a range of 12. His tower had only a little more than 300 health left.
