    Quick Question

    Currently in war and a few of my mates have been fb'ed down. What happens when they cant pay their military?

    Afaik, they cant attack during that tick, ME drops depending and proportional to how much the army is underpaid???

    What else, and does it affect wizards and thieves?

    the tick you havent paid your army, you cant send out - until the tick you pay them.. thieves/wizards unaffected..

    I don't remember seeing ME drop, but it has been awhile since I paid attention to this. LoRD_SaMPuaN is correct about the other effects.

    ME definitely drops proportional to what you can't pay.

    Thieves are affected, as you can not steal until your wages are paid

    You can steal with unpaid wages, Loons is incorrect.

    I believe the ME drop is as if you had 50% pay, not proportional, but haven't fully tested.

    i think me doesnt drop below %50 wage lvl even when unpaid, so it makes sense the drop ratio is same as if it was %50 paid..

    Yeah, I would assume that proportional in palems post proposes that if you could pay at 170% wages, it hits your ME as if you had 170% wages, but I'm pretty sure it's always full. But I try to avoid gc starving, so who knows.

    Yea, that's what I meant. If you've got say 200% wages and you can only afford 100% wages, you only get the ME bonus of 100% wages, with a minimum cap at 50%.

    ^ Pretty sure thats wrong.

    If you GC starve, even if you can pay up to 199% it'll drop you like you've got 50%

    Thieves stop working at some point when housing is so bad their parents kick em out of the basement. Anyone remember when this happens? I got dog piled in a war earlier this age and my thieves wouldn't work. Happens a lot, just can't remember when and why. Still got a positive(+1) acre out of the war so their strategy didn't work! ;-)
