Joint Attacks

    In advance of this being implemented could the following be please taken into account in the name of fairness.


    The loot that players participating in a joint attack should be divided according to the number of attackers each attacker sends.


    Else one player could contribute say 1 spy and large numbers of pochteca or polom and get the majority of the loot which is obviously unfair.


    of course some Alliances could send attacking troops in advance of the pochtecas and polom and if so then the sharing of the loot is something that might need to agreed to in-house of each Alliance and not something that the DEVS can sort out.

    Quote from Hoggel

    Yes they could send the carriers in the second wave. but only if the 12 hour rule is lifted. You can only atttack a player once every 12 hours and win.


    Well what I would do in a join attack situation was send the initial attack with just the attacking troops and send the loot gatherers just after the 1st attack is launched that way the defender cannot or should not be able to go into a protection mode. GAVIOTA has already posted that even if a player has 12 hour protection from the player who attacked them the player could still be attacked by others. This feature would need to be looked at once Joint Attacks become a feature of the game.

    Joint attacks are not coming yet, but when they do we are naturally going to consider how the loot is split, since it's a fundamental part of it, so I can assure you we are not forgetting about that.


    Regarding the 12 hour rule: note that this only applies if the defender has 75% points or less of than the attacker. It's true that in those cases you can't do a second wave, but just wanted to point out that it doesn't apply to every single attack.
