Re: army hit points
i think the HP of your troops is counted in seconds..IE the higher you researched them the longer they survive..iam not sure about the time of each type though

Re: army hit points
Due to the excessive number of factors that can affect troops hit points, we do not include this information in the wiki.

Re: army hit points
Since the upgrades for them are a flat 10(x)% couldn't we still have base values? It isn't very difficult to figure out the rest. Even the two values of base/fully upgraded would be helpful
They tried to excom 5 people
A sane person wouldn't do maintenance on 30 villages and continue to call it fun. W6, now farmville for all.

Re: army hit points
it is ridiculous not having this info available.
how is a new player expected to make an informed decision about the units ?
are pikes the same defensively as a swordsman, or does the swordsman have extra hp ?
to not know the answer to this basic question, especially when there are such limited troop types, is completely frustrating.
attack value, armor class, and hp should all be made known.
In MMO's there is a 'slider' used to balance gameplay. Players understand this and adapt their games to suit. However the basic details of the various units appears to be a secret in SHK.

Re: army hit points
1. Pikes having more defense than swords, is far from being unilaterally accepted as fact by experienced players. It is accepted as being economically sound to use them in most situations in preference to swords. This is not quite the same thing.
2. 'Experienced players know which troops to use' Are you espousing trial and error as a sensible gaming method ? Do you live your real life like this ?
your comments only highlight the fact SHK needs to stop messing new players about, and tell them the exact numbers.

Re: army hit points
Why would you think this is done to mess about new players? No player either Veteran or new has had these figures and based on what CaptSkubba has said, it's unlikely they ever will.

Re: army hit points
I am not saying hiding this information is done for the purpose of messing new players around. But it does. Unquestionably. How can players make an informed decision, about which researches to initially prioritize, without knowing the facts ? This is frustrating.
when asked about troop values -attack v different types of troops, defense, ability to fill a moat, knock down a wall, etc, i want to be able to give my alliance members sound advice, based on fact.
i guess i will organize some standardized testing. It will be interesting to see if results vary between worlds.

Re: army hit points
It is unfortunate that the figures you require are not available but a lot of it boils down to players doing exactly what you will be doing collating information and arriving at the result. I hope you post here with your findings as I would be interested to hear what you discovered.
I can give you the range statistics for turrets, balista and archers. I have this from a player/Moderator who worked it out in the early days of the beta. That information you may already have as Bobkyou put it out there a long time ago but I've included it just in case.
Dru also tested quite a few things in game and I've included his link and statistics below. Please remember these are fluid and may have changed/been tweaked since. You can also find youtube videos from Dru that are very useful for newer faction members.
Please remember some of these below can also change with cards especially the moat one.
