If thats the case then both KDs could be scraping each others land def provs for sci, could they not? seems fair enough to me. The point, for me at least, would not be to work the odd abducts in like you are suggesting, although I suppose it makes sense. To me, it would seem to offer a means for the better KD to extract some extra war win bonus. Its not that difficult to come up with a strategy that would let you abduct smaller provinces in war, it is moreso to come up with one that lets you abduct people in proper range, though it can be done as well.

If its a hard floor of one, but still beholden to all the relative NW/land factors to get any further gains, I find it hard to believe this would be an issue. For real gains you would still need to hit in range, but if that is what we want to see then the kills modifier probably has to go, otherwise it has no use in war other than vs land def, or if the war is over before mintime.
