Does boxing off your land with walls and or piers prevent viking attacks?

[Fortunas]

I haven't had one yet

[Dahak]

Nope. They still attack even though they can't get in. They can also capture you r people through a 1 thick wall. And they can capture your gate guards. They tend to bring ogres to smash your walls too.

[Fortunas]

Hmm that's weird because I haven't been attacked yet and it's been around 10 years

[ПЯТКОВ]

wait until about 25-30 years, two small boats will come, as the game is classed as tower defence, the attacks get bigger and bigger as the game goes on,

[Dahak]

I get hit at 35-40 years by two or so ships. It gives you plenty of time to get off the ground.

[Fortunas]

no no i don't think you understand. i'm at humble kingdom now

[Fortunas]

at year 299

[Fortunas]

I still get dragons but ever since I blocked off all land with walls I haven't had an attack

[The Derpening]

Maybe they stop attacking if theres no place to land sinceyou've boxed it all off?

[Bussy]

If you box it off, they will not attack, they can sometimes spawn and stack in 1 big pile

[G-Susrecon]

but why would you want to box it all off, it is fun to get atackt and then do ur best to defend it ^^

[Thorneater]

What do tithes do?

[itb]

hm maybe erase 1 wall but before that build much archer tower and balist behind it and station all ur heroes with lots of solidiers there u will be atackt mostlikely but stop then instantly i think but dont know dont have a wall all around my island but still my heroes still kill the vikings pretty fast

[jphm]

I've boxed in all of my land except for one tiny island. The vikings need someplace to land, so they target that island. No matter where they spawn, they will sail all the way over to this island, land there, then walk through the water to my walls. It works really well and you really don't need any archer towers/ballistae until wherever you're letting them land. Of course, doing this takes forever.

I surrounded my main island with 1-block walls while leaving leave one free tile open to serve as a landing point to funnel vikings into my arrow towers. Vikings still attacked, but they only send a few ships at a time. One ship, most of the time.

Vikings did not land on the smaller islands unless I built a bridge to those islands connecting them to a gate. And that's where things get weird. Vikings will still send ships one at a time, though sometimes they will send a wave of ogres. One ogre will land at the gate, while the others will beach on land nearest to the gate. They will then waddle across the water to knock down walls. Once they've broken enough walls, they go back to their ships and sail away
