Puzzle #2
The truth is, since the attack was successful, nothing was really wrong with it.
HOWEVER, this is NOT something that I would have done.
Sending in Imps to attack is a high-risk/high-reward situation. Creeping past clueless defenders and making off with 1200 gold may have been a good move today, but the odds are stacked against you.
Here's what is wrong:
- This was jacki's first attack against me for that day. Jacki may have used Evil Eye on me, but I can't tell.
- Even if the Evil Eye was successful, jacki would have known that I have some defense.
- If I had been defending with Devilers, all 4 level 15 Imps would have DIED!
- jacki attacked me 4 more times in the next 3 days with the same group of Devilers and Imps, but did NOT lose any Imps
- At the time, I was ONLY defending with Dark Riders
- By studying Target Priorities, jacki would have lost Imps ONLY if he ran into defending Devilers.
Lessons Learned:
- Don't send Imps to attack unless your are absolutely positive that your target has ZERO defense
- Study Target Priorities, there are times when it is a good idea to mix creature types
- Learn to read the Defense Report or Attack Report, the message at the bottom will give you clues to your target's defenses
