I'm not addicted to Forge of Empires. I can quit anytime. No really I can! Just not today.
The way it worked for me was to completely remove the extension then reinstall it. Refresh page and like magic everything is good in the world....well, maybe not that.
Big thanks to the FoE Helper crew you make this game a lot easier to play.
We got a sneak peak at the road map for FoE through 2027. Out of respect to our source we're going to be very careful about what we say. Out of respect to our other connections at Inno Games we will respect their internal embargo and allow them to stagger their announcements and launch their changes however they wish.
Our reaction to the road map which included the final version of the GB changes was...
Yes it's different than what we have on Beta right now but not different enough to make it ok. It still may change. Nothing is final until it's final but as of right now it's bad. Bad enough that you have four people here that have played this game for 14, 14, 12 and 9 years (the noob) are deciding if we're going to continue playing or not. Yes it's that bad. So if you are going to continue to play please continue reading.To all players on live servers. If you're unaware of the GB changes that have already taken place on Beta you can search this blog as there are many posts but here is a quick and easy guide as to what happened.

On that post you will see which GB's are getting new tiers and which ones are not getting tiers yet.
You will also get a snapshot of what the new bonuses will be to make it easy to decide what GB's you want to keep, build or delete.
To summarize:
GB name - silver tier bonus - gold tier bonus
GE boosts
Statue of Zeus - multiplies blue defense GE - multiplies blue attack GE *This is not just a addition like plus 24 blue defense this is take your blue GE defense and multiply by 1.6 type of thing. So the stronger you already are the larger the bonus you receive
Colosseum - blue defense GE - blue attack GE
St. Mark's Basilica - red defense GE - red attack GE
Deal Castle - red and blue defense GE - red and blue attack GE
Alcatraz - multiplies red defense GE - multiplies red attack GE *This is not just a addition like plus 24 blue defense this is take your blue GE defense and multiply by 1.6 type of thing. So the stronger you already are the larger the bonus you receive
Château Frontenac - red defense GE and previous era goods - red attack (base attack)
Arctic Orangery - red attack GE AND current era goods - red defense (base defense)
Seed Vault - blue defense GE AND guild goods - red attack and defense (base attack)
The Blue Galaxy - blue attack GE AND FP's - blue attack and defense (base)
GbG boosts
Cathedral of Aachen - multiplies blue defense GbG- multiplies blue attack GbG *This is not just a addition like plus 24 blue defense this is take your blue GbG defense and multiply by 1.6 type of thing. So the stronger you already are the larger the bonus you receive
Lotus Temple - red defense GbG - red attack GbG
The Arc - blue attack GbG AND FP's - blue defense (base defense)
The Kraken - multiplies red defense GbG- multiplies red attack GbG *This is not just a addition like plus 24 blue defense this is take your blue GbG defense and multiply by 1.6 type of thing. So the stronger you already are the larger the bonus you receive
Terracotta Army - blue defense GbG - blue attack GbG
Himeji Castle - red and blue defense GbG - red and blue attack GbG
Observatory - blue defense GbG - blue attack (base)
QI boosts
Castel del Monte - blue defense QI - blue attack QI
The Virgo Project - red defense QI - red attack QI
other
Space Carrier - coin boost AND goods - supply boost AND guild goods
If you have one of these GB's or plan to build one and keep it then immediately open it to lv 400. If you can start to level them to lv 101 or 201 or 301 or 400. The reason you want to go to 101 instead of 100 is to take advantage of the next tier bonuses.
If you don't see a GB above then it's not getting tiers yet. If you plan to keep it then open it to lv 200 and again level it to 101 not 100.
If you see a GB that you would like at lv 400 but it's garbage at lower tiers like the Virgo Project, Kraken etc. then you may want to consider not building them at all. It's better to have a few high-level GB's than a bunch of low-level ones and the cost to level to the top tiers will make GB's at low level underperform simple event buildings.
When this comes to live server you will not get a lot of notice so start unlocking levels now and get on with the process of levelling them.
If you're in a guild that limits how many GB's you can post then find a new guild that doesn't hinder your growth.
When the official announcement comes this post will make a lot more sense but for now get to work unlocking levels.
This is not a game that will die a natural death. It appears some people wish to drown it in a bathtub. Unfortunately those people are decision makers. Fortunately for us the old original crew that work there are not happy about these changes and the leaks are pouring in.
To ensure we do not put any of them at risk we will not be elaborating or answering specific questions about the road map. We will prioritize protecting sources over breaking news. We just wanted to get the information out ASAP so people won't be left hanging when the changes come.
*Update: The GB code is being updated so FoE helper won't work for taking spots on other people's GB's. It will still work for posting your GB's.
Are you playing the Anniversary Event?
Are you completely up to date on the world prize progress?
Sure hope that I'm wrong about that as it has some very negative implications.
It would explain why mere seconds after the event opened the numbers for the leagues were set to something that isn't possible.
I'm not going for gold league so I'm not that invested in this event but something feels...off.
This is a town for players that are ok spending their diamonds in QI instead of GbG and events.
Special thanks for guest contributor this week. Our former guild master turned mentor and friend Crash Cart but she goes by different names on other servers. This is her settlement. Because we are getting these screen shots mailed at various times it's best to copy this for next season instead of trying to start it this season. She's just sending in the screenshots. All the spelling errors are mine.
There are not enough coin to fill-out the rest of the settlement.
1st Harvest
First delete houses and place churches until happiness is at 150%
Build three alchemists.
Delete breweries and place churches. From here on out we will be maximizing quantum actions.
Now the tasks split so you can potentially do two at a time. But honestly it's easier to just do the quests than to line them up.

end of rush quests
Daily quests are single quests. You get 160 energy for each quest.
Embargo until "end of March" not a specific day. Hold remaining until lifted.
We can finally talk about the controversial axe throwing event and there are some changes this year so pay attention.Event currency is called "Fate Amulets"
Pay Fate Amulets to throw axes. Each axe thrown grants two grand prize progress.
You are playing against your hood. So you are competing for the good prizes on the wheel but remember not everyone sees value in what you see so they may refresh the wheel when you almost have what you want or they could just be griefing because they're bitter a-holes. That variable is why people hate this mechanic.
There is a daily task mini-game that involves you using event currency (throwing axes) to complete mini-quests. There are six a day. Once you complete the first three the next three rewards are doubled.
That means you need to manage your event currency. Your incentive is to complete all six tasks when you play the mini-game. If you can't do that daily then you are better-off skipping a day and getting all six the next day than you are getting three completed daily.
We'll see how the balance works on Beta but in testing there was nowhere near enough currency to even do it every other day.
Only throw axes to complete those mini-quests. Pay attention as some of those quests will ask to refresh and throw X axes and some will just say throw X axes. Some of the quests will say claim X so be dam sure that the X they're looking for is still on the wheel.
You can throw 1, 3 or 5 axes at a time. You get the best grand prize progress by throwing three axes at once.
If you refresh board it also throws an axe of whatever quantity is selected.
If you throw 5 axes and there are only 3 prizes remaining on the wheel then you'll get 2 on the next wheel with the automatic refresh.
Be careful. In testing when I had a quest to throw 5 axes and there were only 4 on the wheel the quest did NOT complete as it acted as a refresh. I do not know if that was intended or a bug that will be fixed. Obviously if you're doing that quest just don't be cute with it and make sure there are enough prizes on the wheel.
