Topic: 40% NW rule

Seems there is a bug with the 40%> I am in 1396 the bottom fam and somehow 1392 can keep on raiding us while ze are not even 1/4 th of their NW. I know when offensive attacks or ops are used the rule doesn't apply but this is not the case. Also I know the rule does not apply when you mass send before dropping out of NW range then you can still trigger. But as it are fresh explored planets this can not be the case either. I want the MODS to have a look at it and that all planets about 30 will be returned to our fam. Atm we don't do any retakes because we know the rule is then broken but if the rule is no longer applicable then inform us.

We don't stop playing because we grow old, we grow old because we stop playing.
Action may not always be happiness, but there is no happiness without action.

Re: 40% NW rule

Can a mod confirm it is 72 hrs and not 24 or 48 ?

Using Sentinel attacks to bypass the 40% rule is bug abusing.

Retired.

Re: 40% NW rule

If you are using a sentinel tag as a form of war and not just clearing the small people that explore or attack into your core, that is abuse of game function.  If you are doing this it needs to stop now. We are already working on something to keep this because some of you just can't resist to do it for a few more planets.

Spyro I will as Stefan about the NW drop and timing.

Right, so what are we waiting for?  Can we get this going?  Any other feedback?

Re: 40% NW rule

Sentinel is used on the small player, who explores in core. They attacked and lost their fam nw protection. ... Case solved, idk what bug abuse u are talking about

Re: 40% NW rule

The 40% NW rule goes into effect the following tick. If attacks continued then either the fleet was pre-sent,  or attacks or ops were used by the smaller family. The NW rule was tested and seems to be working.

So to explain a little better. Family A is bigger than family B. Family B falls under 40% NW rule. If someone from family B ops or attacks under this protection your family is no longer protected for 24 hours passed the last op or attack. Any fleet sent within that time frame can still be triggered.

Re: 40% NW rule

So in other words the bottom fam must have done an op or attack to ensure 92 can continue to raid them...Not too bright lol

Re: 40% NW rule

Are there any limits on who you can attack?

Yes, in order to prevent large players from picking on smaller players, there is a 40% networth limit placed on attacks.
This basically means you are forbidden to attack anyone 40% of your networth or lower.
This limit is reduced to 25% when war is declared between the two families.
These rules apply for individual players as well as for families as a whole.

Note: If the smaller player attacks the large player first, the 40% limit is ignored for 72 hours (from the last attack made).
These rules apply for individual players as well as for families as a whole.

Note 2: Any attacks made on players 40% of your networth or lower will result in the planet being "blown up" and therefore made uninhabitable. The planet will need to be explored again.



Kt, why you say 24hrs ?

Re: 40% NW rule

Stefan told me that. I will double check with him again.

Re: 40% NW rule

There was a miscommunication between us. It is 72 hours.

players from ic.
Fams use to raid a smaller fam take some planets
and then. Give them a nap. You dont just attack
a smaller fam to the point that they cant play  the game.
you do that in a hard core galaxy.
Looks like this big fam does not know how to play
This game.
If your going to do nothing but farm small fams .your
playing the wrong game. Farmvill is on Facebook.


its a war game, not IMPERIAL EMPATHY
you had the chance to wait a few more hours with attacks and you would have find yourself back in the NW protection...

we should get a dictionary here to tell us what farming really is...

Re: 40% NW rule

doesn't seem fair that ops should be included as you cant see them in fam news...you cant know that they are being made as you can in with attacks in fam news.....as leader you are playing and speaking blind as anyone in family could be not telling the truth about it for whatever  ulterior motive they may have....attacked family can see the ops but shouldn't family guilty of the attacks have some public record too?

should I be having to ask a mod if anyone in my famiy has opped the other family?
