Congratulations on the Acrtic Future, Ar(c)dak. If nothing else those fires and flames should keep the city warm, eh? Seriously, well done. I remember when you were just a little pup in ProgE. When was that, last week?

No loss of production here due to my City Defense.
Incorrect mate. By my count that's 141 watchfires to give you the amount of def, so we'll say "give or take a few" on that number.

You are in future era.

So by having watchfires instead of victory towers you are missing out on over 25,000 medals weekly.

Considering medals let you finish off your expansions and contribute to all ages gvg it's quite significant production to be missing out on imo.

If you don't care about your guild's gvg then more power to you. But here is something else to illustrate my point, that watchfires are a waste unless you are willing to go to 500%:

He even had 30% attack too, still no losses.

@Dursland you have good, valid points.
The guild I am a member of, does not GvG to any real extent, if at all.
I sure don't... GvG is costly.

But here is something else to illustrate my point, that watchfires are a waste unless you are willing to go to 500%:

He is right again.
Ya gotta have a lot to make a real difference against anyone.

shocker, dumb city AI, I'm sure you vote no to a smarter AI not hitting Rogues

He may be talking about

As always, I look at the Big Picture.
The cost in troops, goods, space in my city to support a military complex, etc...
It's too much for me to GvG.
Or to hunt Tower Points from my neighbors.
That's what I had to let go.

I like my Heavy Production City.

18 Goods buildings.
11 Supply buildings.
Over 100 Forge Points a day from my city alone.
Tiny Military complex that requires no population or happiness to support.
11 Unattached Champions and Rogues every day.
Enthusiastic without Polish.
Tough City Defense to beat.

Medals suffer, and that's what I had to give up.
As @Dursland correctly pointed out.

I placed my last medals expansion about three or four weeks ago.
I gain a lot of medals from Events when available.

This week I'm doing well again with the Towers.

This isn't going to last long, so I'm will cook while the Skillet is Hot.
My neighbors are delightful and I'm blessed to rub elbows with them.
To me, it's all about balance.
And showing love, respect and peace to my fellow citizens on Beautiful Rugnir.

That would make rogues completely pointless, but no I wouldn't vote against it.

I'd just end up using an army of 6 to 8 full on units like I do on continent map. No biggie.

Sometimes I actually do better there because I'm able to hit everything first turn.

This is me right now in LMA: most "attackers" run after the 1st salvo (but after any attempted attack I swap defenders around so they get no pattern on me).

When this man breathes, the trees sway back and forth.
I'll try do his Excellent City some justice here with an image.

With Humility I post these results.
He could have won but he decided that I'm a nice guy.
So he left me alone.
