are your soldiers gone, lost or missing after the update? ok.. i will share some tip.
since GGS don't have the solution yet for the missing troops specially after the update i tried to observe things before and after the update, i noticed that troops gone missing if you sent them out just before the update. my advise is DONT SEND YOUR TROOPS OUT IF THERE IS AN UPDATE COMING. MAKE IT SURE THAT THEY ARE IN YOUR PLACE/CASTLE/OUTPOST WHEN THE UPDATE IS HAPPENING.

hope this helps. :)

    Hi pugsley,

    Acutally that is wrong. The update has nothing to do with the troops going missing.

    At the moment there is NOTHING a player can do to prevent it happening. We are still searching for the bugs. if any information does become available to help prevent it occuring it will of course be shared with the community.

    Regards,
    Malreyn

    This is a bug. Go to the "technical problems & bugs" section of the forum and look at the stickied threads.

    This glitch only occurs when attacking from your main castle.

    i sent out 800 troops on a mission including marauders which i hired by giving resources today. They are all gone. it takes lot of gold, time and resources to build 800 troops. To loose them is very disappointing. i think you need to stop new game updates for now and sort out the big issues.

    I believe "update" has caused it

    when i relogin ... ( off due to crash )
    the game does not give me a daily login bonus..
    it means game is doing some "update" or "backup"..etc

    otherwise, they will not give me a login bonus...it is clearly "game" is doing something and re-assess (may be daily update)

    when i try to send amry out for the treasure hunt in the map
    i find missing troops and those troops a in the "returning home" after hitting a rbc

    so i think
    it is possible
    the game update do not include those troops that are off town while they are doing some "update"

    CM Malreyn already responded. And besides, this thread is a complete and utter waste of time, so why would a mod have to say anything? There have already been numerous threads made in the correct section of the forum, and dozens of posts from mods on those threads.

    Hi All,

    I'm going to lock this thread since it serves no purpose. THere is nothing that you can do as a player to prevent the bug occuring. it is random and we are still investigating it. Updates will be provided as and when we have then via the sticky thread in the bug forum.

    Regards,
    Malreyn
