Is it still possible to PK a province?

[Palem]

I don't like being killed off with Trads! Remove them! ;p

[scorpio86]

lol @ Bishop

Fair enough

[lastunicorn]

When was the last time that happened Palem?

[Ordray]

Probably about 18 minutes before he posted ;)

There is a min peasants go away. Between 7 and 14

Not true

[Anri]

minimum desertion rate is 10 pezzies/hour, or at least it was last age. Observed on province ranging 30-100 peasants, desertion rate was consistently at 10 pessies

Also not true.. sry for upping this thread again like some kind of pirate.
But in age 55 this is false.

We've tracked several provinces this age with ~50 peasants and they had lost a consistent 10 peasants / tick when overpopped.

Not true, we tracked it from 2k-8 peasants. I will try to post some newsworthy thing here. I start with FB.

Fireball:
70 pessies left = 4 kills
60 pessies left = 3 kills
50 pessies left = 2 kills
40 pessies left = 1 kills
30 pessies left = 1 kills
29 pessies left = 0 kills

Kidnapp = We got 0, no matter how many thiefs we sent after he came below 60-70 pessies.

Desertion = He had around 10 desertion per tick between 100-200 pessies, after this the curve went down.
Around 6-7 desertion when he had 60 pessies left.

Between 29-15 pessies he had 4 desertion per tick with wizard and soldier draft. He also had MS, greed, riots, drought those ticks.
Between 15-8 pessies he lost 2-3 pessies per tick. This is when he logged in and released army.

Id say if he would have had only 1-8 pessies the curve would been as low as 1 desertion per tick.

Yea i know, i was suprised also. Almost impossible to peasant kill someone.

TM in range 1700a prov vs 1700a prov both on 230k nw. Took 3 pessies when he had 50 pessies left.
This works in the same way. We returned with 0 pessies in the end.

So the only thing that can kill someone by peasant kill is the desertion alone.

I took the oppertunity to try and PK a prov in Acres over the weekend. This info is accurate and the rest in here is wrong.

Just out of curiosity in war range / size has effects on gains but the fact you gain acres no matter what in war,
and out of war if you are out of range you get 0 accres,

so if the person you are trying to kill is lets say 200 acres and for example the guys killing him with razes is 2-3k acres because he started in that range out of war
is 8it really easier to kill someone out of war w/ razes given that size difference? or would it be quicker in war with 10-14 acre grabs quad taps by 5-6 provs in a 24 hour period to kill him off with trads

is it really faster to kill someone out of war with the size range protection?
curious (and lets presume the prov is inactive and not having incoming lands in both scenarios...)

So really is faster to kill someone OOW tcompared to in war!?
fascinating please do go on! id love to know how that effectively works... with size range protection
or is that no size limits when using range with raze OOW?

This is odd. We noticed the same trend that under 30 peasants, fb and kidnap yeild 0 kills. Said province at 30 peasants got pked after 3 ticks of inactivity (30->20->10->death message on news page).

This was one of their deep chained provinces. Perhaps your target wasn't overpopped to the same extent? We got a clean 10 peasant loss per tick, yet you didn't. There must be some other confounding factors involved, so I wouldn't be quick to declare one side to the right or wrong without understanding why. What are the circumstances to reproduce this effect? For example, we were in war, were you?

[br3nt00]

i can report a similar situation, confirmed 10peasant/tick minimum emigration rate.

[crease]

i was recently at 37 peasants, was losing 1 for every t/m on me, still lost 1 to a kidnap and desertion was not as high as 10.

[elixer]

Fb/kidnap till you get 0. Then trad march cause it takes peas. We also massed a few times. Then with 6 peas they died

[yage]

you should watch ur pezzies closely, last age i was down to 92 peasant, i dont remember my acres. A mate died after a tick, coz forget to stop training wizzards..
