I was working on spending the majority of my money on Barracks. Cycling my troops on a weekly basis sounds effective, and will save me roughly half on housing. <br/><br/>Sadly however, I've doomed myself and already declared myself on the border of my empire, and I'm expecting an attack at any moment. An empire that already outnumbers me 5-1. So making that 10-1 for any amount of time just seems like a bad idea...<br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>When the game starts try to make some allies with like minded players. This is a rather political game so things like that are inclined to happen. Have them help out by stationing a garrison and maybe even one of their heroic followers to oversee it. In an emergency said player could show up with a few of his her elites even if there isnt enough notice to transport their army.<br/><br/>I don't know about how aggressive other players intend to be reserved with actually attacking other players. Most i'll probably try to strong-arm into providing me tribute rather than seeking to eliminate them. Now Zaer probably has some NPC's who are going to keep things active.
