I want to set my night time to only allow battles 6 pm-11 pm eastern time.
The GMT on the setting tab doesn't indicate whether it is -3 or +3 GMT. Also, I have no idea how time zones work, really.
Help. <3333
Also all you cna do is stop battles from happening from 11 pm to 7 am, you cant stop battles from happening from 7 am to 6 pm. And it doesnt stop the battles just pushes the battles to 7 am instead (if that works for you). GMT-6 is east coast na time. So if yours doesnt say - its + so with no symbol youa re currently set for GMT+3. To set your time add 9 hours. So 11 pm start of nighttime you should set if for 8 then make sure you have +8 hours. The system is buggy and you may still end up 1 hour off +/- because their program is kind of shitty.
P.S. 2-10 am is a better setting - at least you can get west coasters to defend your army even if you cant make it, if you do 11 pm all you will do is make battles at 7 am and its really tough to get full roster even using a mostly eu merc force, at least at 10 am and after you can get a full roster though still mostly eu mercs. Its a practical reality of strategus that dictates most nighttime settings not when you specifically can fight since it doesnt block off 16 hours - only 8 hours and you have to adapt to that.
