Hey guys,
So, sitting has now been changed:
"We have also reduced the minimum amount of time before you are able to cancel Province Sitting and regain control of your account from 24 hours to 1 hour. This change will go live shortly."
So, assuming this means that I can set a sitter for a day with the intent being that I need sitting for a specific few hours - maybe my army comes home while I'm in a meeting, or drunk, or w/e. Cool - I totally get the point of that. But does that not now essentially mean that with a few credits being used here and there (given how cheap they are), you can essentially have any prov being sat at any time and online 24/7?
You have a key province in war who you need to pay close attention to to keep it safe - renewing CS between MVs, perhaps, or keeping banks online, or keeping food aid coming in, using stealth and combatting ETs, etc. Well, now I can just set a sitter when I go to sleep, havethat prov kept online all night being attended to, and then cancel sitting when I wake up.
For me, this destroys a large portion of tactical gameplay within wars. When you are facing a big tanky province, effective organisation and targetting provinces during potential weak moments (often during sleep) can be, and often is, an absolute game-changer.
I am a wee bit concerned that this is now lost. I am concerned that we are removing a huge (in many cases, the only) avenue for KDs to attack strong provinces during a short window of opportunity. I feel this is moving towards a Pay2Win system, as this provides kingdoms willing to use a ton of credits a large advantage over kds who are not willing to, or cannot, do that.
Or have I got the wrong end of this all?
