I actually prefer the system as is. The problems you guys are giving is, the time which the battle takes place and the ping problem, but you see you cannot have both the problems, since attackers pick the time but they have bad ping. I don't know what you ppl are bitching about; The FCC had been attacked at 5 AM eastern by the mercs but you don't see us with like 10 ppl showing up for the battle since, our diplomats go around to other clans teamspeaks and vents looking for trustworthy members that would play for us, who assures us that they would be on at the time of the battle.
something like this
visitors can't see pics , please
register or
loginthese areas can be proportionate to the amount of players NA and EU have right now
if a clan has eu and na players they would pretty much want to sit on the border of those timezones, where na players could deal on one side and eu on the other

This is just the dumbest thing ever, please explain how this fixes any problems. This basically just cripples the defenders; lets say a NA clan captures some EU territory, and Eu goes and tries to capture it back, the NA clan would have bad ping and a horrible time in the day.
What you people need to do is just get your priorities in order, its all you decision; if you think this is more important that work by all means take a vacation day, if not just get some one to merc for you.
I love the idea of defenders have the advantage, which they do because of the ping, the time isn't that big of a problem, since if i just search i'm sure i can enough people that are willing to wake up at 5am in order to participate in it. I hate the idea of two Continents because i don't believe any land should be harder to take or defend than any other land.
1) 2 big continents (the second one is entirely new with new maps, we have plenty of new village maps). The second continent has the amount of fiefs calculated by the difference in the Strategus playerbase of NA and EU (i.e. current Calradia has 100 fiefs and 17,000 players. 10,000 of these players are EU, 7000 of them are from NA. Then new Strategus will be with Calradia and 100 fiefs for EU servers only, new continent with 70 fiefs for NA servers only). And i would like to see 10-15 islands between continents with variable server (the one who defends it defines the server).
That is just utter bullshit, the EU server having more fiefs, more villages=More troops, owning a town gives you 2 troops an hour instead of 1.
I think the map should just be expanded, but any clan no matter EU or NA should be able to take any fief they want.
PS. if you don't want to fight in dreadful hours or have bad ping, Don't start wars with the clans from the other continent.
