Thanks for bringing it to Stormfall despite all the feedback to the contrary from the players. Nice work.
Hopefully it will generate the PvP you desire, result in lost troops that coiners decide to buy back and increase revenues. That is the only thing that matter right........
From my understanding, seemingly less biased against commerce, it looks like coiners can revive 90% of their units lost against other lords just as everyone else can. The 10% not recovered free are a relatively small portion of total troop strength and I suspect, are within reasonable loss rates to be expected by an active player of small to moderate strength. I see the "devious" intent simply as a way to interest more players in league play in general and fighting for beacons specifically.
The mega-coiners (especially on Untamed) are just insane enough to revive 90% for sapphires during the event and revive them again (after dying many times) at the end for free
There are no rewards for this tournament (according to research on Total Dom servers and forums) so why would normal players wish to compete?
I don't fancy losing over 10% of my beacon defense and most others would agree, but we are a captive audience, unable to recall our units. Don't forget that revives are always rounded down so you will never get 90% of total losses. Also losses from beacons, forts and fireballs are often random. They ignore the normal combat algorithm because plarium cannot be bothered to do the basic arithmetic
What we need is a 12 hour Beacon Protection spell :)
