Thread: Ikariam Tips, Tricks and FAQ's

Through a finger faster than eye can see. I am in the midst of a huge order of about 140 war ships more than I will ever need. Unless I plan to invade the whole ALPHA Quadrin (yes I am a Star Trek fan) Does anyone know how to stop my order from processing.

Like the cat caught in a tree with no way down...dog barking at its feet. Meeeeoooow!!!!

I will be building ships for the next week in case anyone want war ships. I have got about 40 flame thrower, AND about 25 rammers for sale!!!! LOL

Anyone planning to invade I am well armed. LOL

No, the developers designed it this way so that people could not hide their sulfur/lumber in the build process just before they are attacked and then turn around and cancel after the attack is complete.

Once your ships are done, you can disband them and get some lumber/sulfur/citizens back. If you want more citizens in a colony, you could ship your boats there and disband them there.

I want to say thanks to everyone for all your help thus far in the game. I am very greatful. I am getting a better understanding as I progress.

I got invaded by 2 members of TNO ( of ALPHA WORLD). The invasion was a good thing. I had to bone up on Warfare. I stood my ground; won the second invasion. On the third attack they backed off. They got little for their GRAND effort. These guys were armed. I am glad to say I did some damage. It was fun!!!. I think they will be back.

What's the story with TNO; anyone had any contact with this group? Is the blurb on their (very nicely designed) front page false or do they invade little guys like me for fun? I quote: Men long for freedom, equality and stability. The New Order was founded to ensure that these values are protected and their cities secure. This sound like a marketing speech to me!!!

On another note, I have decided to start an Alliance. POGG: PEOPLE, ORDER & GOOD GOVERNMENT. I designed a cover page but is clueless on how to upload the page into the external window. I tried a few things but they did not work. Anyone have and idea on how this is done?

Thanks again!!!

PS: The person who accused me of posting my last massage twice. I did not. I checked my posting and did not find a second posting. I don't like SPAMS. So if it was posted twice that was an error either on my part or the system.

Pillaging is part of the game. I bet they looked up your cash score and decided that you were an easy mark. Regardless, congratulations on the win and the new alliance!

I deployed my fleets to protect my hometown. The attack is over, there is no combat report, and I'm not sure how to send my troops home. The gold upkeep for the troops is higher when they are not in their city of origin. I checked the in game help, and it says you can't move your troops back until 20 minutes after the battle is won. I assume I won the battle since there is no combat report, and the timer for the invading fleet is over. It has been more than 20 minutes.

I checked the barracks, shipyard, and trading port for options. I checked the military page. I checked the island view page.

Hi Lucky Shot,

It's been more than 4 hours since the incident took place. My troops are still in the wrong city. When I click the city in island view with the focus on the home city, there are no options. When I click the city in the view of another city, the "send troops" and "send fleets" buttons are greyed out, which I assume means I can't send more troops than I have already. I wish the game itself gave me some indication of what was going on. I don't know what to do, so all I can do is wait. I may have to accept that an error happened in the game and adjust my strategy. Or maybe it will just fix itself when enough time goes by, as you said.
