20 minutes of free EXP? How awful!
When the attackers fight each other in order to help break gear, there's a violation. They're breaking the spoils of war.
When the defenders lose lives, any at all, because the attackers are delaying, there's a violation. Lost troops and what not that would have been avoided had the rules been followed.
Just two points. Meanwhile, the second attack is now in place, with the defenders at a slight disadvantage... something that could have been avoided. So yes, there is something a tad 'awful' about it. But then, the Squids rarely follow rules. Last strat, this strat... every little strat strat.
