Topic: No runes for decisive victory (stable)

It is my understanding that a victory of 70% or higher would result in runes being taken.  Here are the results of a battle with a village over 25% larger than mine, with a 72% victory, yet I wasn't able to take any runes.

Attacker:      Death by Paper Cuts (Billigan - 8520 value)
Defender:     glen's Village (glenneke - 10760 value)
Date:     02.02.2010 23:38
Outcome:     72% victory

Stolen Resources
21650 Gold, 26750 Iron, and 1727 Gems

Re: No runes for decisive victory (stable)

Had they recently been hit, and lost 25% of their networth?  A village can no longer lose more than 25% networth in one day.

Doom, that particular protection is not working at all.  I didn't know it was supposed to be the case, but it is possible to level a village in a LOT less than 4 days.

I missed it, it said stable.  MY BAD  big_smile  I read speed.

It may be 75% needed?  I know the numbers were fuzzy predictions when they started getting quoted.  Really, I don't know wink

Re: No runes for decisive victory (stable)

it's not written in stone. 72% can rarely bring runes.

Re: No runes for decisive victory (stable)

I've gotten them with 70%... but only 1-2 runes came from that battle.  It was a long way to walk and a lot of guys to retrain for an earth rune or two.

Re: No runes for decisive victory (stable)

You did that on speed - not stable.  Different victory rules exist for speed and stable.
