Kingdom Kill and Rampage Events
Staying safe during Rampage and Kingdom Kill events can be difficult but with a little forethought you can make things easier. Here are a few ideas to help protect yourself. Its not a definitive guide, and everyone should work out their own plans, but they might just help
1. Troops are safe when gathering at the Alliance Superfarm so a large troops march can be protected for several hours. Note that troops farming anywhere else are at risk and are always a target for easy kills. You are better using boosts on your castle resource points to increase protection
2. Ruins can be explored for up to 8hrs. Like the Superfarm, whilst exploring Ruins your troops are safe. The safety period can be extended by selecting a Ruin on the extreme of the Kingdom, as that way not only do you protect your troops for the 8hrs exploration, but also potentially another 3 or 4 hrs as they march to and from the Ruin
3. PeaceShields can be used to prevent attacks on your castle for a period. Remember if you have the Alliance Honor you can buy a PeaceShield in the Alliance Store rather than using precious gold. Every castle as a reinforcement limit, based on their Embassy level, which allows alliance members to place troops in friendly castles. If someone else is covered by a PeaceShield reinforce them to protect your troops, but remember to find out how long their shield as remaining so your troops aren't left at risk when it ends.
4. In a way Monsters can be used to protect troops. Select a monster, low level as this would be any problem to your troops, as far from your castle as possible and go kill it. Since marching troops are safe from attack, your marching army will be safe for an hour or two. Remember don't use heroes that boost march speed... then aim here is to protect your troops for as long as possible
5. Actively monitor your account. Popping in once a day during Kill Events will me you will almost certainly get attacked and destroyed, unless you deploy a 3-Day PeaceShield. I know it is not always possible (we all have real lives and jobs) but try and find time to visit your account several times a day, that way you can use Ruins up to 3 times, target a monster several times, refresh the troops in the Superfarm etc
6. If you have enough space in your hospitals (this applies to small accounts really) leave troops there. When healed they will be at risk again. This does not work for larger accounts, where you have more troops than hospital space, as once full any additional troop loss is a straight death
7. Stay under your Depot limit. If you have no troops in your castle and nothing to steal, then most other Lords will not attack for the sake of it. If you are over Depot limit then share resources out to those that can take them and use them
