How to protect your city, resources, gold and forces during plunder and/or seize attacks

1. Trucks. Dispatching trucks to resource fields you have seized will save resources. Once you pick the trucks, they give you the option to transport goods. I have over 1.5k trucks, which is also 1.5k million or close to in resources you can transport and hide to a property.

2. Trade center. You can post goods in the trade center and not lose them, so long as the resources or price for the resources end in 9. Select Alliance Trade Only and make sure the price listed ends in a 9. Any time you see trades up from the alliance with a 9 as the last digit in the price this denotes it is being stored there to hide it....DONT BUY IT!
3. Storage unit. You only really need one to help cover your storage needs, because as you level it up, the capacity increaces. Following steps one and two, all you need to do is modify the storage capacity manually and almost all of your resources shall be covered.

4. Under your general quarters, there is an option to change defensive tactics of your troops. Click defense tactics, then select each of the three options below on the menu bar. Make sure every single troop type is in the set of closed doors, and not the red flag. Red flag means not only your sources can be detected by spy plane, but they will engage the enemy if they decide to attack. Closed doors means they stay within the city and do not engage... the upside is spyplanes can't detect enemy forces, the downside is that if they are knocking at your door, you can't defend yourself if you find it's a small force.

5. Research center. Upgrade, upgrade, upgrade! Storage capacity can increace through the upgrade.Following the steps will protect your resources to the highest degree. Be smart; invest in trucks on the side because they can be a life-saver.
