Three Kingdoms Online: Advance timing, A lobbyist train
Posted by JackApr 27
It’s a tricky tactic that can help you take a city before the defender can realized it and prevent him to use the curfew command.
To make the train work you need 5 lobbyist (4 for wei) or ask player of your league to help you by attacking with some lobbyist too.
The train is quite hard to do since you only got 6 schedule deployment and you have to have 5 different attack with a lobbyist, your clearing wave and your demolisher wave.
First : check when your lobbyist and demo of all your city take to get to the target. If the difference of time is less than 10 minutes you should be fine to launch them at the same time.
Second: Pick a time that you want the attack to land or just launch the attack that from the city that the farthest from the target, note the times of that attack will land
Third: Time your clearing wave and demo wave to hit before this time, the clearing wave first and the demo wave a few second after. Make sure to hit the annexe and that you have enough demo to clear the annexe.
FourthΒ : Launch all the other lobbyist attack so the land after the other attack by less than 5-10 minutes, if you have enough schedule deployment left use them.
If everything go fine you should have the city in one sweep.
To increase your chance you can always fake a train by using fake attack of demolisher since they have the same speed.
Another variant you can do : attack normally with a clearing wave and a demo wave and clear annexe of their cities. And after send a train with a clearing wave since that only 5-6 attack it’s easier to do, but since you’ve cleared there annexe they probably think you want to steal there city.
Hope it’s help.

Hi, thanks for the guide, I have one question though, how do you make sure that your demo will destroy the annex or mansion ? Can you control that ? 5I don’t have any demo yet).
Otherwise you would have to destroy maybe half of the city before you get to the annexe, by then it might not be so interesting to take the city anymore… I plan to taking one big city but I’m actually afraid of that problem. If indeed you have to destroy many things that you’d like to conserve in order to get it, I think lobbyists are somehow useless…
Thanks anyway for your help π

Hi !
In TKO you can chose the target you want to hit (I think its not the case in tribal war) even if they’re not upgraded, so you can chose to aim for the
annex or the mansion.
But like I said in my previous post, even if you destroy the mansion you cannot steal the main city, so if you are aiming for a steal aim your troop to a nice sub not the main. How to know what its main ? For most player it’s the city with has the most point. If you aim for a annexe and destroyed something else it’s probably because it’s the main or that he never built a anexe in this city.
You can check my other post on demolisher
using your demolisher effectively For more info on the demolishers.

Ok, thanks for your answer ! π
Since my comment I indeed realised that the first city is automatically the main until you effectively build an annexe… Therefore it’s quite difficult to find an inactive player with a two nicely built cities ! But I’ll keep looking anyway π
Well I like to build defensively first so I have time to figure it out !

Can we conquer the main city of our enemy with lobbyists?
How many lobbyists can we purchase from a sub-city and a main city?

There unfortunately no way of taking the main city of your enemy. π so usually I just demo it’s barrack and stable and turn it into a farm.
You can purchase a lobbyists when your annexe is at level 10 and 20 and for your main it’s when your mansion is level 10, 15 and 20. So that make a maximum of 2 lobbyists in a sub and 3 in your main.
