Try 55 next
I totally disagree. I would never dodge with my defence when I got attacked. There are 3 reasons: 1) You keep your wall 2) You got a lot of good BP 3) You stop a revolt.
If you have to dodge something, you should dodge your biremes. They can save your city and obtain a lot of BP.
Many people send CS with 39 LS or attack with a slinger nuke with 20 LS.
So if you build 25 biremes(if you have many cities near each other) or 50 biremes(if it's a town in danger) you have a good chance to snipe the enemy a get a lot off easy BP.
BUT, never dodge with DLU...
Obviously if you have sufficient DLU to repel the attack and save the revolt then don't dodge, lol. However if you are up against a bigger player with deeper pockets then they will clear you anyway, your wall will be gone and you won't have any defense left to save your city.
Where as a dodge will leave all your defense alive to fight another battle.
With a small amount of gold and a construction boost you can throw a fairly decent wall up in 12 hours. The only attack that matters and needs to be defended is the CS (conquest or revolt) and you will have a much better chance of defending said city if you have 750 DLU + what you've added to it during the 12 hour period before RR starts.
I've played a bit of revolt too so not a noob.
Problem is just that a smart enemy will keep coming back for your wall until the 12 hours are up. And then you are defending with 750 dlu behind no wall, instead of 750 troops behind wall 25. Big difference
well it's served me well having played a recent revolt server start to finish including the crown. Everyone plays their own way i suppose.
Conquest is more fun but requires much more application.
Nothing makes your stomach drop more than waking up in the morning, realising you missed the attack alarm 4 hours ago and logging in to find 15k DLU and 2k birs parked in your city, lol!
Revolt is much more strategic imo.
But the fun of Conquest is trying to break siege, especially using flyers. In any case I so screwed in this world, like the noob that I am I invested in flyers. My Alliance is no more and I can't even snipe with my flyers guess I'll just have to settle with pissing someone off until I get rimmed.
Revolt is much more strategic imo.

I guarantee you that waking up to 5 pages of revolts on your forum makes your stomach drop much more than one of your cities being stacked lol
Atleast if you are an alliance leader and u have to find a way not to lose even a single city. I agree that its much more strategic
