Question regarding Forts

Hello. I used to be a player form quite a while ago and recently began again and I was wondering if Forts have been nerfed since around 2012.

I had a situation where my army of 50k infantry was defending from a force of 80k infantry (no flowering) within a level 5 fort, and the entire fort was destroyed to level 0 and my army destroyed in just 6 battle ticks. I'm sure I recall that a level 5 fort would last longer than that against plain infantry - surely it defeats the point of artillery otherwise. Is this working as intended?

Forts arent nerfed and have the following damage absorption until they break:

Level 1 67%
Level 2 80%
Level 3 86%
Level 4 89%
Level 5 91%

You might've had the luck factor against you, or they flowered on the fort.

there certainly wasn't any flowering as i saw the thing unfold. we had 10 hp of fort down to 0 hp in just 6 ticks with one attacking army of 80 units against one defending army of 50 units. is the rng that wild a level 5 fort can melt on day 7 with infantry only? i don't remember that at all.

They may have also GMed your fort down to make it easier on their attackers.

Not sure if I am remembering right or making it up, but I also seem to remember forts having scaling hp per level, lv 1 has 1 hp, lv 2 gets 3hp resulting at lv 5 with 15 hp instead of the 2hp per level we have today. Can't remember if damage absorption was changed then.

Sounds like reliance on fortification is less reliable than sheer troop numbers.
