@ayam, no, crop lock originated when travian originated. just because you’re a member of legion/dacia doesnt mean your alliance invented it. /fail kid, /fail.

your guide is decent, although you seem to be inexperienced with this, or you’d know better which buildings to target. my guess is you read another guide, destroyed a few crop fields, and decided to write your own guide. am i wrong?

Agree with mostly everything but there is one important detail. The rally point.YOu can put them the enemy on negative for whatever reasons, but if they still have that rally point up, they can easily separate the troops to other villages to reduce the negative crop, thus making it a lot easier to rebuild, while still having troops from that village alive and at least safe for the time being.It was done to me a month 1/2 ago.I was on negative really bad, so i just said to myself, Ill just send to my captial to keep them alive.When i try to look for my rally point…its not there!!! they all starved with my village croplocked.

Do NOT cat the Whse their is no need for this!

Hitting the basic pkg targets. MB,Granary,4 Crop fields,Market.
adv pkg add Grain Mill,Bakery,Residence.

**if the player has more vils, you need to run it again at those vils till all are locked and instant farm. the player will most likely delete so enjoy it.

*** The crop lock is most fun used when the enemy has a hammer and its out, you lock the village and entire hammer dies before they get home. -Priceless-

I’m agree with you guys, but I suggest to destroy the residence/palace in the cleaning/clearance wave (the 1st one), so you won’t loose any cats due to the def bonus that the res/palace gives.

same as ZeroInfinity,
I prefer like to destroy the granary instead of warehous for croplocking. Also, I don’t think it’s necessary to catas the bakery or grain mill if we can destroy all the crop fields. The bakery and grain mill will no use for no input such as the crop fields.

Destroy all of the crop fields, granary, market and main buildings. That I suggest.

anyway, good article.

Hey, great idea! Thanks for that. I’m a very active Roman in Au server 3, and i really want to know how to destroy those farms that doesn’t reproduce anymore so I have space for my own villages. This helped a lot! Thanks!

Crop locking is effective if you want to destroy someone, but you can garuntee that you will only get three days of raiding after you have crop locked his feeder cities before he deletes.

For maximum farming effect kill his Wall, Market, Trade Office, Main building, barracks and stable ( in that order). Now his feeder is your farm and since he cannot effectively suppy his cropper his army will starve behind those walls. It usually takes them much longer to realize they are snookered and that is more time to farm him.

This is a great idea. However, when you want to turn someone into a farm, you shouldn’t destroy the ware house, only the granary because you don’t need that much crop if you farm someone. Overall this is cool.

croplock was originally used by Legion alliance to attack Dacia … but eventually dacia used this strategy to attack Legion.

use six wave .. each wave at least 80 Cata
