Preventation

At first you have to be sure that your teamcrew is more than 2000 to capture a city without a fort, 3000 to capture a city with fort. You also need a teamlevel 12 is also necassary to teamfence city and much shatter ammo.

Which city?

Reasons to capture a city maybe:

to raise own reputation
to change nationality of a city for skilling or tradeing
to take over control of other players town

City without citywalls got 2000 soldiers and weak gouverneur with condition round about 400 (here i am not sure, will give exakt stats later).

City with citywalls got 2000 soldiers and normal gouverneur with condition round about 500.

City with one fort got 3000 soldiers and good gouverneur with condition round about 600.

City with two forts got 6000 soldiers and strong gouverneur with condition over 600.

Captureing city

Befor you fence town, your team should shoot soldiers at city down to 800 better 600 with shatter ammo. After that you can fence town with your team. The fencer should use „hit and run“ tactic and at the end he must only block until soldiers are under 400 and gouverneurs moral is whining. Then you can beat him and hope to capture town.

After you won swordfight and gouverneur didnt flee you can change nationality of that city.

If you are going to capture a town, try to find some mates which can defend your team against enemys while you are in teamfence.

New Gouverneur

After capturing town you should hire minimum 100 soldiers and deposite 50.000 gold at town, if you wish to get townfolks loyal to you. Otherwise townfolks will revolt against you. You have to know that atm hire soldiers is bugged. If you hire one soldier then two will come. One soldier cost 100 goldpieces per day and will be paied from your money on bank or clanmoney bank.

City will be loyal after 48 hours (realtime). After that you can dismiss all soldiers at town, but remeber that a sloop can capture town then.

If you are not in your town you can take a look at yours if you click right mouse button and take a look at logbook/citys at citynews from your town. That only works if you are at any city.
