I am no longer maintaining this site actively.  I quit the game a few weeks ago, as I have pretty much lost interest.  The game isn't evolving well, and most of the people that I enjoyed playing with have quit.  I wish you all well, and if anyone wants to volunteer to moderate the site shoot me an email and we can talk.

Kabam is testing this on select domains.  I can't believe they are continuing down this path.  The game has totally jumped the shark.

The Apothecary is a new building that heals wounded troops after combat! If a player loses troops in battle and has an Apothecary, some of his defeated troops will show up as "Wounded". The amount of wounded troops is determined by the level of his Apothecary. The higher the level, the more troops he can revive. A Player can Revive wounded troops by selecting "Revive" in the Apothecary. Reviving Troops has a time and Gold cost. 

One Apothecary can be built per city. Troops can only be revived one group at a time (you can not queue groups). 

Wounded Troops

A player will obtain a number of killed Troops as "Wounded" based on their Apothecary level.  This pool of Wounded Troops can then be revived in the Apothecary

Troop Costs

Each Troop has a Gold cost for getting revived. The Gold cost for each unit are below.

Kabam has released throne room item upgrades and enhancements on select domains.  As soon as I have a chance to test it I will post some details.

Here is a link to the official Kabam forum post on the new domain mergers, enhanced, and premium domains.  This is going to be interesting folks.

I noticed an unusual change to the in game link to change domains last night.  It has since reverted to what we are accustomed to, but for a few hours last night we may have gotten a glimpse at what is to come.  Several of the older domains had been renamed to Camelotxxx rather than their usual Culwich, Pridwen, etc, which really wasn’t that big of a deal.  However, one VERY interesting thing that I noted was that there was a classification for “Enhanced Rules” domains.  I take this to mean that Kabam has some significant modifications set to roll out in the not to distant future.  I would think that Kabam recognizes that there are two very different styles of players in this game, those that are aggressive and want to have more combat, and those that are more casual and enjoy the occassional altercation, but prefer to build more than fight.  This is total speculation on my part, but a server with reduced training times and less emphasis on resource management might cater to the fighters, and a server that rewards the ‘huggers’ who hoard resources and are more politically minded might make sense.  It might also be interesting to set up a server with ‘old rules’ that take a step back to the days before auto barbing and raiding.  I have also heard discussions about domains with no wilds or a dramatically reduced number of barb camps, both of which would be interesting.  Again, this is total speculation, but it is quite possible that this might be the next evolution in game play.

The new Stone Guardian is being rolled out.  It was released to selected domains on 3/8 and should be wide released in the next day or two.  Here is the Caravan Message announcing it in some domains along with a link to some Q&A.

Thanks to FuFu for this excellent summary of throne room items.

Kudos to Dan Menck for a good write up on Throne Room items.  Take his advice, it is quite good.

This is a little trivial, but a lot of people seem to be going nuts over the throne room items that provde a defense debuff, and I want to correct the misperception.  A quick overview of how combat works is probably in order.  When any troop fights, this is the basic formula: attack-defense x accuracy = life taken per round of combat.  There are other multipliers that can affect combat such as overwhelming numbers, but for the sake of simplicity, lets just address the basic formula.  A defense debuff of even 60% on the highest def troop (hc) is only worth about 80 life per round, assuming lvl 11 research.  That’s approximately equivalent to a 7% atk buff (without an ore guardian, 5.5% with a lvl 10) or a 2% life debuff.  Other troops have a much lower defense value (see http://www.techfumaster.com/general-koc-faqs/troop-stats-w-research/ for values) and the defense debuff has an even lower net effect on them.  I’m not saying that the defense debuff is totally useless, but it certainly shouldn’t be one that you are spending a lot of time or effort trying to acquire.
