Hello,

I'm trying to make maps and let the enemy send attacks.
But i have a problem, I can't send more than 20 units in one attack.
I let them make groups of 10. However i can only use the Take All, or 1 melee, 1 ranged. Antihorse and Mounted also don't work.
When i set the units to 30 he also doesn't attack anymore.

It works with 20

Here they are attacking
Image


Now i set it above 20
Image

And they wont do anything
Image

I also cant use my Mounted and Antihorse units in my attacks.

Hope someone is able to help me

First of all 540s its not 10 mins its 9mins, and AI needs to have reqiured number of soldiers before sending an attack so it will wait to recruit them all and then send attack.

Yes i know 540 isnt 10 minutes, but it's just to show you that they dont attack at/
I've waited for 30 minutes and they still dont attack. And as you can see i have enough troops for the 2 melee and 1 ranged groups

Did you place any AI defence positions? Soldiers in "front line" (or "defenders") defence positions will not attack. Make sure any soldiers you want to attack are in "back line" (or "attackers") defence positions, or not in a defence position at all.

Lewin you are right i think he didn't placed AI defence pos so AI don't make even army and will wait forever for required number of soldiers.

Aah thank you so much Lewin!
I had AI defence positions but I didn't know you what front line and back line did. So I had melee troops in front line and ranged in back line because i thought back line was for ranged :rolleyes:

I've did what you said and it works great now. Thanks again!

Yeah front/back line are confusing names, so in the next release I've changed them to attackers and defenders. Hopefully that will be less confusing.
