TheLords VacantCitiesAroundMe?
If you have been writing to other cities around you (which is a very smart way to gain a member for your alliance and keep them as a friend - the closer you are to another person\'s city, the more likely you will be attacked by them), and you receive NO reply. It may be a vacant city. A lot of people come and go. So the server does not remove the city (as far as I know.)
Ok, what to do with your city you feel is vacant? If you sent a letter, and no reply, I usually send one more telling them an attack is eminent if there is no reply (you gave your neighbor ample warning.) If it is a lvl 3 and up, scout it first to see what you are dealing with. If there are troops, that is a huge bonus because you will gain prestige. (they did not send them hunting - shame on them). Go ahead an have fun attacking.
If it a level 0-2 you may not be allowed to attack it. Send your letters like above, see if they would like to join The Lords since you guys are like neighbors. If no reply again, scout, then attack. If you get a message about how you can\'t attack them yet because they are in their "protection period" which lasts 7 days. Wait a couple of days then attack. It will allow you in due time.
The lower levels will not gain you much due to the lack of assets, but anything will help. Also, you will gain practice in Warcraft. (same as occupying an oasis or fort.)
Have fun!
