So You are right behind me:
141/150 siege, my reward is capped 161 silver/5600 gold
64/70 defence, my reward is 180 silver
I agree that now the defences need a lot of handlings, the foes are hitting much harder and even playing manual active defense you start to have no free time between the 4 waves. Now I often found myself finish to kill the first wave at turn 4-5 and I just have time to move the generals back before the next wave comes. If you don't play active and destroy foes immediately they just hammering you down and a lot of them have 3 tiles range so there is no way to realy protect the castle

After reading all the stuff I can't even say: "It is not Rocket science". And GP age rating of EW5 is 7+. Man, you need to be PhD to complete EW5.

Plus, if you don't wall off your area, there's a small chance that enemies may waltz right in when near an opening or on their second move if not blocked.
Right now, the best I can do is to concentrate almost all my gens in the centre and launch them together (as opposed to using garrisons / intercepting troops along the invasion routes and one main body for reinforcing the border guards).
Towers at their best can deal around 200-300dmg, IIRC. Not too bad, IMO.

jonblend, I cannot auto anymore as all enemy give same cap silver of 168 in siege so I lose some interest in siege. By cap I mean it's the highest silver at my progression (For ex: When you first do siege, 127 is the max silver rewarded). Stay at 128 siege/39 defense atm. Let hope sh88, will show us the last achievement  150/150 (1000medals) sieges is the last achievement After the 70 I got a new 100 defence achievement (800 medals).I think is the last one because is a round number. Honestly I don't think I will play it, I'm bored to play defence for nothing |

Cheers bro, and thanks for keeping us posted. Hope it's the last one too, as it's so boring to do defense at the moment.

What are your thoughts about this particular item and Charlemagne in general. Do effects of this item and defensive aura of Blucher stack up?  |

What are your thoughts about this particular item and Charlemagne in general. Do effects of this item and defensive aura of Blucher stack up? Just checked. Yes they do stack. I tried it with Attila against the same archer general. With no one nearby, he got 1388 damage. With only Charlemagne 984. With both Charlemagne and Blücher with lvl 8 armor master (-40% damage) he took 543. But maybe you're better off using Jebe rather than Charlemagne, if you want more defense, I don't know. |

With bith Charlemagne and Blücher with lvl 8 armor master (-40% damage) he took 543. But maybe you're better off using Jebe rather than Charlemagne, if you want more defense, I don't know. It's an active passive skill which helps when sending cav gens and other supporting units together, IMO. In Castle, it will benefit any troops deployed, especially the front nearest to Charlemagne. Of course, using Jebe has an advantage which negate Charlemagne's potential disadvantage. A ranged gen wouldn't necessarily take up a melee hex, which allows someone else to plow through rather than letting a tank simply absorb dmg.
Besides the exclusive passive skill, the statuses are very unimpressive, except for the hit points and the four effects granted. To make Charlemagne a better tank, one may consider Aegis (to improve his def and make it easier to stack defensive aura). I don't see a need for him to become more offense related unlike Saladin who needs it to use Logistics effectively. |

The unnamed resource (let's call it silver ore since it's similar to the ore produced in the mine building) is capped at 30000, so buy the 20 medals before reaching the cap

After those, I will stop playing and with 30k silver ore I should be able to buy any possible new item immediately |

Lol I've only just realised that you get to deploy extra generals by upgrading the barracks etc. I guess I really should've taken the time to read this thread |

 Was speed running through the necessary 3× Sieges when I encountered a very familiar terrain: my own castle. At least destroying the same lands which drained me of time and energy felt cathartic? |

and thanks for finding out.
