Lost 2 villages?

[Last Gitlerist]

Hello, I play this game from like couple of months. This morning I logged in and from the 3 villages I had, only the last one is left (level 1 village, which I just made last night...)
The other 2 just has dissapered from the map...?

In my parish two villages of another player disappeared. I think they were destroyed because he was trying to be the new steward.

I don't think the possibility to raze a village is stupid, it just makes the game more difficult but not all games should be easy. I will make more defences and army now.

Most likely you were razed because your castle was open or because another player needed a village. If you are in my parishes I don't want a big gaping hole in your defenses so my enemies can use your village to quickly jump into my parish with an immediate army at his disposal. Therefore I'd raze you.

Stronghold Kingdoms is a war game, true. And while you don't have to fight PvP, you do need to keep your defenses strong; a good 400 archers on a fully built castle should be enough to deter random attackers, even good ones. Another thing to keep in mind is you should try to join a farming faction or even a house, this will provide all sorts of diplomatic benefits as when another player looking for another village sees the a house color on your village he will be less likely to attack.

well I was razed by a guy with 26 villages, not much I can do versus him with my 3 villages (2 just made the day before he attacked me. :). Now all I got left is a village for SALT which has literally nothing in it so I have no desire or motivation to keep playing. I think they should warn you somehow that your villages can be razed or whatever, so you prepare a bigger army of defence or something, since I had a nice defending army, but the guy attacked with literally all screen full of archers, pikemen and what not and a guy on my lvl cant rly defend versus that. kinda unbalanced I guess. Shame, was a good game.

Yeah there are players like that out there, best thing you can do is join a faction. Most worlds have one or two good active farming factions who would welcome a peacekeeping player like you. If you are on UK worlds 1, 5, or 7 I'll try to get you set up. Just add me on steam and we can talk about it. :)
