Nothing about this event is fun...
1) The whole banner icon to enter the battlefield doesn't work, I need to hit just the tip.
2) Invested 3k gold for this event, last time I did this in the Troy event I got pretty far on it as did everyone else. I'm at the mid level battlefields now and getting all 10 troop advantages and minor gold use don't make a dent. IE the Roman troop counts are way too high for mid level events. I can understand things like Harpies but getting the LS buff shouldn't be over 1k troops. Especially when grabbing the harpies was initially easier.
3) Which brings me to the fact that unlike Trojan conquest, the average joe can't benefit much here. Makes me happy i'm on a team full of people who did invest a lot in the event. But everyone else sort of got screwed by this.
Maybe its an attempt to balance, to which I like to point out that the Trojan conquest event WASN'T an unbalanced thing. You lot clearly have been confused with the Easter event which had the easiest manti nukes, harpy nukes, double BP buffs, and absolutely no counter defense. (I feel bad for you revolt players during Easter)
