double block with 1 recruit

[WhiteMask]

a double 1 recruit block in the same camp can work?

if I send 2 generals with 1r to a camp to increase the time the camp will be blocked could work? (sorry for english...)

I've tried that twice and once managed to get my main general intercepted between the two 1R blocks.
It all seems to depend on lag... if there's even a little delay between the two 1R fights, an interception can occur.
I have thus, at least myself, abandoned the idea.

Jackster did report about his successful double 1R block here (http://forum.thesettlersonline.com/threads/16332-Killste-Collected-Adventure-Guides-by-Various-Authors?p=197610&viewfull=1#post197610) though. :)

ok. thx for help and for info :)

I have encounter some difficult cause lag... using 4 generals for blocks in the last part of traitors but lag make something go wrong... general go to the white castle, start attack but for real he was intercepted and attack the other camp... Report don't say: your general was intercept...

Edit: I try another time but from first general and second general the other one is got intercept... both blocking generals are on the camp, one attacking and one waiting...

That was the same adventure where I tried it, and the same way that it failed.
No knowledge until afterwards that the main general was intercepted.

red area is bigger now part of update bb dont like blocks you level faster so dont get gems 2 gen blocks are fine 3 and 4 watch them

Blocking is not supported by BlueByte. All blocks are the risk of the player.
If lag blocks your block, you can't ask for compensation.

Am I right in assuming the double block is to make it the whole way accross a red area?
Is it possible to fully cross a red area with a single block?

Yes



Is it possible to fully cross a red area with a single block?

No, not across a whole red area, that's 10 steps (or flags) in a straight line from edge to edge (20 steps diagonally from corner to corner)
In addition to those 10 steps you'd need at least 2 steps as safety margin.

A single 1R block only lasts 20 seconds, to march 12 steps requires 40 seconds.
