Not A Bug: Level 7 of Rival is impossible to beat

[Lord Thor Int]

Troubleshooting

It is in the game

I don't no if it is a bug but I will report it.

The Level 7 of the Rival in the Event is impossible to beat.
I am a low level player (Iron age) and the strengt of the Enemy Army to beat is 1500%. This is to much.
Can it be tweeked down?

While I agree that new ;layers (regardless of age) will find it difficult to beat this rival army with 1500% A/D, any play5er can beat it around 6 month after starting a city (f2p).
But the whole event setting seems to be designed to be extremely difficult for new players.

Since I expect this rival to include also blue enemy I suggest aiming for New Checkmate Square level 2 (3x3 no road, 49 A/D both red and blue available in QI). They also works as production building and require no population (one of the few).

The thing is that Inno designed events for He-Men/She-Ras to take on said quests. They've forgot what it was like to be a new player when they first started. When I played on live the first time, the rival quests had the fights to be at 500% beginning all the way up to 1500% towards the end. Now, we're getting about 1500%. Luckily, I am around 5k% (maybe more; too lazy to check) that can take out a 10k% R/B army with one unit lost.

However, if they keep on this destructive (already seen Q3/Q4 financials of 2025) path, we will get that nice "we're sorry to announce that forge of empires will be shut down.... blah blah blah" spiel from Inno for ineptness and incompetence (and yes, Inno, if you feel it's an insult, you might be right, but it is also LEGAL for us to call it like it is when it comes to rating a company honestly).

For someone with 5k% boost who fight when emeny have 12k% boost and winning is this possible (me in GbG) Everything is possible we only need work on it and want it

only enemy with 12k ?

with hover tanks in industrial age much more is possible

I doubt anyone would want to wait until a year or two to get to those numbers just to take onto rival. By then, people (myself included) would have lost interest in playing a game. That 5k% was (with ins and outs) done over a course of about 7 years (since 2018 rebuild from scratch due to deletion by Inno for inactivity).

I stand behind my previous statement.

Also, try having around 10k% for GBg and manage to get to 145 attrition on auto just because he's (me) bored:

(this was from GBg last week before the new one)

And, I seriously doubt you have 5k% with all those GBs laying about.

with hover tanks in colonial age much more is possible

If anyone can get them within that age. Personally, I think that divide at Industrial/Progressive would work since the battleground will be 1.5x in Progressive, making the units in Industrial much slower. Heck, getting HAUs in Industrial (Progressive tanks and artillery) will probably destroy CA units (since sometimes the fights are one age lower than current) Age would be better (I think).

The only reason why I was able to take on OF/VF units upwards to 10k% with just 5k% is because of HAUs (SAM sentinels and steel wardens as they have keen eye and a higher stat than the other two ages worth of units) I get from certain event buildings.

Task 19 requires you to donate previous age goods to the treasury. It is not possible to donate Bronze Age goods. So you would be stuck there anyway.
I wish I hadn't been able to get past task 7.

Indeed, only now I got there. That is a very big blunder!
