Quote: | Since I'm not allowed to post in the needed topic, I'll just have my say about the CtF here.
I'm likin every part of it except the troopers. I never got how they worked and I know I'm not the only one. Can they attack the base when they fight an enemy fleet at his base? Or does it need an empty base? How do you win that 'groundbattle'? If the enemy has 1000 protection-troopers, shouldn't you always win it with 1200 of yours? Sorry for all the questions but the forum-topics didn't make it much clearer to me.

there is still missing a site for groundbattle and ctf in the manual. the answer is: for a ground battle your defensive troopers (1000) get reinforcements from all other troopers deployed from your invaders in your base fleet.

Thanks. I see, I think. So it's kinda necessary to research dark tactics now to defend your flag? |

No, you can use HQ-invaders also.
As the post in News & Updates states:
Quote: | (...) To capture a flag you have to build an HQ-invader (which can be researched if you have researched transwarp-network) (...) |

It says to capture, indeed. If HQ-invaders can be used to protect as well, I think they should be more expensive than other invaders/troopers. They shouldn't even be allowed to protect. 1 normal invader has 75 troopers. This one has 1200!! Too much protection! |

How many flags can an alliance posses at the same time? Or is there no limit in theft? |

Maybe I've overread it, but if my alliance has captured a flag, the other alliance should have the possibility to get it back. The flag is at my leaders base.
What happens if the leader of my alliance changes? Will the flag move to the new leader?
If yes, it could be quite impossible to retrieve the flag, because you do not really have a fixed target.
On the one hand a solution might be that the leader cannot be changed when an alliance has captured a flag. But then its a conflict with the alliance gameplay.
On the other hand it might be better when the flag will automatically be retrieved when the leader changes.
Can anyone (admins) help me with that, please?

Well it looks to me that if you want to change a leader it will take some days (experience from Privateers). I think it is better to just give the responsibility to the leader (thereby most alliances do have their own flag, so actually a leader could seldom change). Maybe it is an idea to give the secret identity of the leader away.

no .. no open list of leaders !
but the leader of the allaince that has lost its flag should know who has the flag ( the leader of the other alliance)

@kever: it is implemented already !
_____________________
here is the plan for finding oout leaders:
there will be a new balance for all invaders . especially the alliance invader will do the right job. it will provide the leader of an allaince.
the usage of invaders willl be more easy and less expensive, so that more players willl use them , especially the new alliance invader.
