Colonization

From Inselkampf

Colonies are the aim of the game. For a player to expand they must colonise islands.

How to colonize

A player can colonize any island as long as:

• It is not the only island of a player
• The main house is at Level 1
• There are no troops on the island

In the .com version of Inselkampf any island of any player can be colonized if it is not their only island. The player needs to send a colonization ship at the target island, set to 'attack' mode. The player should not send the ship unaccompanied:

• All troops on the island need to be dead if colonization is to be successful.
• The main house must be knocked down to Level 1 in order for the colonization to be successful.
• Even an undefended island has a defense/offense value of 50, and an unaccompanied colonization ship will be destroyed.

Even if the troops are dead and the house is at Level 1 there is still only a 50% chance of a successful colonization. If the colonization is successful your ship will be destroyed. If the colonization fails, your ship will return; unless it is destroyed in battle. The colonisation ship will die in battle if 50% of the your attacking troops are killed.

The same principles apply to unowned islands; the main house must be at level 1 and there must be no troops on the island. Colonization ships should never be sent unaccompanied even if there are no defences on the island.

It usually takes around three months for most players to gain the ability to colonize and defend themselves effectively. However, with the right alliance or friend helping you out with resources; it can take as quickly as a month
