DarkMistress Posted September 22, 2007 Report Share Posted September 22, 2007 (edited) Hi, I've nuked a target 3 nights in a row and no soldiers have been destroyed in the nukes. It is very strange considering the soldier count of one of my targets has not changed at all and they currently have 67000+ troops at home AFTER I nuked them with 90000+ total. Is there some bug I don't know about? Can someone PM me about this issue? Edited September 22, 2007 by DarkMistress Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
der_ko Posted September 22, 2007 Report Share Posted September 22, 2007 (edited) In CN there are two kind of soldiers. "Real" soldiers which can be deployed and "extra" soldiers. The amount of extra soldiers you get is modified by how many real soldiers you have and soldier count modifiers (resources and improvements). If you don't kill the "real" soldiers the "extra" soldiers will never die. Your enemy probably deployed all his "real" soldiers and left the "extra" soldiers at home and when you nuked him you couldn't kill his real soldiers and therefor his extra soldiers still exist.

Rozalia Posted September 22, 2007 Report Share Posted September 22, 2007 could this then be considered as a great tactic? Not really. Remember if you have no soldiers you can only be attacked once. Now if the nuke doesn't kill any soldiers then you can raid them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkMistress Posted September 22, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2007 Actually, I know this tactic but this nation did not deploy all his soldiers. As I said, he had deployed 1/3. If the nuke did work as it should, it would have killed the 2/3' s of his troops at home and his number of troops would have decreased. THey DID NOT.

x Tela x Posted September 22, 2007 Report Share Posted September 22, 2007 Actually, I know this tactic but this nation did not deploy all his soldiers. As I said, he had deployed 1/3. If the nuke did work as it should, it would have killed the 2/3' s of his troops at home and his number of troops would have decreased. THey DID NOT. When 1 soldier dies, regardless of WHERE it dies, your overall soldier count is lowered. Let's say you have 3 ghosts for every 1 "real" soldier. Simplified: Someone has 10,000 troops. 5,000 deployed, 5,000 defending. You kill 1,000 troops in a ground attack. You kill 3,000 ghosts because of this. The ghosts are taken from your overall total, which subtracts from BOTH deployed and defending...If that makes sense to anyone. It's very weird, but that's how it works.

DarkMistress Posted September 22, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2007 (edited) To: XXXX From: DarkMistress 9/21/2007 12:45:01 AM Subject: Nuclear AttackYour nation has been attacked with nuclear weapons by DarkMistress. You lost 0 soldiers, 0 defending tanks, 0 cruise missiles, 55.834 miles of land, 150.000 infrastructure, and 1/4 of your aircraft force. In addition to these losses your nation will experience many days of economic devastation. He had 97230 soldiers BEFORE I nuked him. He has 97230 soldiers AFTER I nuked him. He had 67,873 DEFENDING soldiers. That means that his deployed troops were just shy of 30000.

x Tela x Posted September 22, 2007 Report Share Posted September 22, 2007 (edited) Err, ok. I see now. I don't know how that happens...Some soldiers should still die, lol Oh wait, the soldiers he deployed were equal to his BASE soldier total. So all the defending soldiers were just ghosts, so they can't be killed. LOL That's kind of a bad bug..Worse than the usual GC complaints.

jake felan Posted September 24, 2007 Report Share Posted September 24, 2007 this is not the first time this has happened.. theres another thread some were on the matter as well. myself and another member were posting in.. i fired three nukes at a target before it ever lost troops. and in the initial two had no troops deployed.

htl2001 Posted September 24, 2007 Report Share Posted September 24, 2007 this sounds more like an exploit now than a bug. Wonder if a normal GA would kill any soldiers or would he still have the same amount defending? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
