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.

First off i just want to say that this is not new to me… i have been using it for over a year, but also because it happened to me although the other way around (on a village i conquered).

Second, my views on the matter are slightly different… i only take out what is necessary. 1 – Granary; 2 – Cereal Fields; 3 – Main BuildingEverything else stays intact. This because you want the village to need as much cereal possible. 50% of nothing is still nothing so leave the mill and bakery alone.
Destroy the main building because as long as your cereal is highly negative the game won’t allow you to make any buildings. This includes even main building lvl 1. You have no idea how long it takes to start using a village conquered like that…

How to crop-lock is one thing.

What about how to recover from it if you don’t have another village/alliance to help and don’t want to use gold? I don’t want to give my attacker the satisfaction of deleting or the benefit of resources.
