Meer and Rod's Verbal Battlefield

[Waffuru]

I need somebody who knows the rules to explain something: what is the to-attack troop limit really about? Does the target have to be within X% of the attacker's troop count, either X% more or X% less - or - is it restricting ONLY larger players from attacking smaller players but smaller players can attack larger players of any size? Inquiring minds!

Only smaller. If they're larger than you they're always fair game.

It's to stop big people from picking on newbies or collecting their start gold when they join.
