Both towers must be destroyed before you send last attack to castle. If you send your last general when those towers are still standing and those towers are destroyed before your general arrive in to the area, general still use same route what was, when you sended general to attack. (Route is never changed, even camps are destroyed from path. Your general never do shortcuts.)

So both towers must be destroyed before sending last attack. I allways make sure that route is safe. I wait, that my generals that I ordered destroy those towers comes back to theyre garrisons.

Still not get it how should that change anything, i will test it today on test server, maybe its somehow random accident.

Not sure if you're referring to the attack on the White Castle in Stealing from the Rich,
but here's a picture I snapped yesterday when I was playing it myself:



This shows how the general is avoiding the red influence area of the nearest tower.
And he's doing that by walking through the spot where there used to be another tower.

If that tower was still standing and still fighting when the general was sent off,
his approaching path would have been one tile further to the left, and thus inside the red area.

Hi guys...I think Tage is right...BUT isn't this kind of pointless? You're talking about watchtowers with 0 losses...just send your general on the lower watchtower on Tage's picture, he'll be intercepted by other three and you can send your veteran when the selected watchtower starts going down

[Ra_V_en]

That shows everything, btw if u have clicked on the main garrison and waited for attack before the camps was destroyed it still shows the last path, so you have to chose the main general right after the most to the right tower is done to provide space to go there.

Btw its good to know when to do something, every such mistake (distraction or afk) will give u quite looses on that one, so i don't think its pointless at all

Another thing is with 17 - 20 camps, if you send gen to 20 it will be intercepted by all camps before, but if you choose every tower one by one, you could easily end up with no cav returning if you put gen in mistaken position of garrison.


Edit: Finished VTV, everything just fine, 3x500xbows everyone was super lucky

No Tages way is the safest way.
The path finding can avoid a tower if you try that. And dont forget the wolftrap above it will hurt your cav if your army moves to the left side of the white castle. So just kill those 2 towers and then go after the white castle.

Here's another picture from yesterday, showing that wolf trap:



Any attack sent on any of the two towers on the left, would be intercepted by that trap (T15).

OK...I didn't read all your comments, so I didn't know that you're trying to avoid the trap...sorry.

I'm glad everything worked okey with VtV Ra_V_en
And to conclude Stfr discousion, I suggest using the route explained by me and other players to succeed. If this doesnt work, than it must be something with server. Lately I've seen some strange things happend during adventures...

Doing another VTV, this time with xbows from last loot ;D ..... and again watching carefully camp 13 ... are you aware that ES setup is incorrect? 180R, 5S, 65ES (180R, 5S, 2ES). I've found 182R, 6M, 1S, 61ES (182R 6M 1S) for this one, still its tricky since u got 6 rounds instead of 2x2 (soldier version) and losses are hardly any different (6M+1s ~ 20r in value). So basically 2 general attack is probably even safer then 1 general on this one.
