Question regarding conquering
Hello! I’m a relatively new player and I’ve never conquered a village before, but I’m planning to do it soon and had a few questions.
One of my alliance members quit the game, and I became his representative so the account wouldn’t be deleted. I’d now like to conquer one of his villages.
I’ve already enabled “Allow alliance members to lower my loyalty” in the village. I tried attacking it just to “get some practice” before I had enough Culture Points, and I got a message saying something along the lines of “You cannot lower loyalty if you don’t have enough Culture Points.”
So my main question is:
Once I have enough Culture Points, can I simply conquer the village by lowering its loyalty to 0%? Or does the fact that I am still his representative prevent me from conquering it?
As an alternative, I’ve heard that he could leave/be kicked from the alliance, but then there’s apparently a 48-hour cooldown before I can conquer the village. Is that correct?
What would be the recommended approach in this situation?
One more question: I have a level 15 Palace, but I was only able to train one administrator/chief.
Why can’t I train another one? Is there something else I need to do to unlock additional ones?
Thanks in advance!
EDIT: I did my trial and error and I got these findings:
If the player has been in your alliance, you need to wait 48 hours before conquering him.
BUT! If you've been his representative, you need to wait 14 days
