Excessive Attack Times

I think there should be a cap on how long it takes to attack someone.
I've been hit by attacks that take 12+ hours to hit. In that time, I can not Move the City, Trade Resources, or Transport Resources. Nobody seriously lauches an attack that takes that long.
I'd like to see something like a max of 6 hours, maybe 3. Any further away then that and a message should pop up saying that you can not attack a person that far away due to troop starvation.

Re: Excessive Attack Times

I know exactly what it's called, but it gets abused by large players with multiple accounts.
They log into a lvl 1-2 account and send a single cat to pin someone. It's one thing if it's a pin from a person you are attacking or in their alliance, but it's the pins from the accounts that have nothing to do with the fight, or are a sub-account of a larger player that need to be looked at.
It's a cheap tactic that is easily abused and should be looked at by Haypi. I mean seriously, by allowing pinning to go on that long, they are preventing that person from using coins to tranport around and we all know Haypi wants people to use coins...

Re: Excessive Attack Times

you guys are missing the point here.
pinning is fine. I use it all the time myself. but being pinned by a lvl 1 or lvl 2 account is rediculous because that account isn't even close to the same lvl as I am. there should just be a CAP on the length of time an attack can take because 12+ hours is rediculous. Or maybe a lvl difference that you can't attack someone more then 4-5 levels different from yourself. That would help eliminate Pins from Low Levels and keep the high lvl guys from picking off the little guys.
I'm a Duke btw.

Re: Excessive Attack Times

I agree with the man... Having someone send in a single cat and make you hold off on doing pretty much everything? That would make most quit. I know for a fact that some people have alot more accnts per server than they should and if they wanted to they could do that all day everyday to people not even allowing them to market

Re: Excessive Attack Times

I would agree that time limits should be in place. It defies all logic that a single cat 12 hours away would completey shut down a city. While i doubt this suggestion will go over to well. Perhaps having the ability to ride out and counter attack would help alleviate the problem

Re: Excessive Attack Times

Sorry, me and k2 are together on this one again. It is a big part of the game and shouldn't be taken away. Your a duke, you should know this. Sorry, but me and k2 have some same ideas.
