This event is further once meant only for the big leagues and the little leagues have the disadvantage. The big leagues have the leagues with flag level1 and their fortresses must not attack. So would the leagues with flag vel 1 the chance had the flags divide among themselves. The idea is great, but the implementation is poor

Well, in my opinion, participate or not participate - it's every league decision.

Worth it or not - every marshal decide for himself.

Capture the Flag!

Capture rival League Flags, defend your own, and earn magnificent Rewards in this unique Tournament!

The High Council of Stormfall is proud to announce a very special Event – the Capture the Flag Tournament!

All Leagues shall be divided into Tiers according to their current positions in the Rankings. Each League shall receive a Flag to be located at their Fortress. The value of a League’s Flag depends on that League’s Tier.

Your main objective is to collect as many Flags from your rivals as possible. Each Flag captured shall yield a certain number of Tournament Points. The more Flags your League collects, the more Points your League shall earn.

As it is said all leagues shall be divided into tiers.....

My league is ranked 1156 and has fortress on lvl 6. And during last Capture the flag tournament we were attacked by league ranked 2 and with fortress lvl 15.

How can you explain to me we were in the same tier?

My league doesn't attack any fortresses to eliminate all retaliations.

We are simply too weak.

That's why we feel very big pain and think division on tiers in this shape is unfair.

Of course.

Leagues should be divided by fortress level, for example 3-6, 7-10, 11-14, 17-20.

Leagues should be divided by amount of league members, for example 1-20, 21-40, 41-60, 61-80, 81-100, +100.

Leagues should be divided by rank, and get more points if you gain flag from better league, for example:

If you gain flag from league ranked +50, -50 from your league - max points.

If you gain flag from league ranked 51-150 up to your league, 51-150 down to your league less points.

The tier concept has been discontinued accidentally in program updates or deliberately by programming. My league, ranked 1717, had our flag taken by a league rated 555 - not close. My league has 5 players, their league has 96. My league has a level 5 castle, theirs is a levrl 11. I can't make any logical argument about being in the same tier. I have asked players with years of experience and they can't explain it. Can you tell me in plain English what Plarium means by "placing leagues in similar tiers based on rankings

It's normal if these Leagues are in the same Tier. You are right, Tier is based on rankings, it doesn't depend on the number of the players. We think that power of Leagues that are on the 500+ place is approximately equal, so they are in the same Tier.

there is a SIMPLE fix for this,   drop the TWO TIER SPREAD,  only allow people to attack inside their own tier

I have said this MANY TIMES

I really ENJOY this tourney, its the only one that's more about interleague competition and bragging rights

but when a tier 4 ranked 66 can rape a tier 2 ranked 299  its just TOTALLY UNFAIR

place 100 leagues per tier  based on rank   1 - 100   101 - 200  201 - 300  301 - 1000 and let let us keep our flags INSIDE OUR TIER

tier 2 has 100 league,  by the end we're lucky if out of all 100 league there are 10 flags left inside our tier

supposed to be a prize for top 10 leagues, in tier 2 there are RARELY even 5 leagues with ANY flags by the end

this isn't rocket science, the fix is SOOO SIMPLE

this should show how unfair this is

my league is ranked  299th  that league is ranked 127th    

299 - 127 = 162  ranks higher than us

from the picture you can see they have 105 flags,  103 of them are tier 2 flags

the answer to making this  enjoyable for ALL leagues is to limit it to within their own tiers   no spread at ALL,  let the big guys fight amongst themselves and the little guys fight amongst themselves

here we go again,, great tourney, love the interleague competition, TOTALLY unbalanced tier set up

just had a league ranked 55th his us (we're ranked 291)

we can't compete with those leagues so you've basicly said, we aren't allowed to play....

when you allow leagues  with such higher ranks attack such lower ranked leagues they can't compete, you're basicly saying,  thanks for entertaining our powerful leagues, but  forget about any chance at having success...

for the duration of this event, you need to devide the tiers in to 5 tiers of 100 each, (not counting leagues ranked over 500th)  and disallow ANY ATTACKS outside the tiers

rank 1 - 100  tier  5   rank 101 - 200  tier  4  rank 201 - 300 tier 3 rank 301 - 400 tier 2  their 401 and lower tier 1

you have it set now at 1 - 50 = tier 5   51 - 100 = tier 4    101  - 200 = tier 3    201 - 300 = tier 2   301 + = tier 

with a 2 tier spread  means a ranked 51 (tier 4) can attack a rank 299 (tier 2)

299 - 51 = 248  difference in rank,    basicly letting the low side NFL teams  rape  HIGHSCHOOL  teams

tell ya what, how bout this,  you say you'll pass this along, but we hear NOTHING and NOTHING has changed.   so if nothing is going to change, how bout you AT LEAST justify letting such powerful leagues  waffle stomp the little leagues?

give us the THOGHT PROCESS on WHY you decided to let us get raped like this??

as I said, myself and many of my league mates truly ENJOY the tournament, but if you're just going to leave the deck to totally and completely stacked against us, we'll be forced to withdraw.

it's just to costly for us to try and be involved...

if your GOAL is to drive us out of the tourney, then CONGRATULATIONS,  GOAL ACHIVED

Hi! Players engage in massive fights and battles all over the map. So it makes players mobilize their Leagues and act together as a team - teamwork, better experience, new emotions, new fresh look at the game. 

For bigger Leagues:

- Their position is in danger. They need to act quickly and jointly if they want to hold their positions.

For smaller Leagues:

- They finally have a chance to overcome stronger enemies and show their potential.

I'm sure that you'll manage to prove your position!

that's just silly,  they only have ONE fortress,  they STACK MILLIONS of def in it, and us league ranked  HUNDREDS lower are just SCREWED

ohh I SEEE the goal is to get us low level league to DESTROY our armies so we SPEND MONEY

PATHETIC, most UNBALANCED BLATENT ATTEMPT TO FORCE US TO SPEND MONEY TOURNY EVER!!

well guess what, I DO spend money on this game, not thousands like some do, but it cost me MORE to play this than to buy a 60 dollar XBOX game, and my reward is to  be BADGERED with heavy handed tactics to try to FORCE me to spend MORE.

STILL waiting for the JUSTIFICATION to allow MONSTER leagues to RAPE  small league in this tourney???

been hit at least 4 times now by a league over 200 ranks higher than us,   they won't even fight in their own tier AT ALL, just go to low level league the KNOW they can rape

tier 4 league with 15 flags,  14 of which are from tier 2 , yeahhh that's SOOOO FAIR

you already have the system in place,  its already restricted to  a 2 tier spread,  1st time I played it was a ONE tier spread, so i'ts a SIMPLE change to restrict it within the tier, but you WON'T because either you want to REWARD higher leagues at our expense of you're trying to FORCE us to PAY to be competative in this tourny

PS. I was told by ONE league if we hit them again they'd attack EVERY MEMBER of our league and drive us out of the game,  since they have 150ish members ALL HIGH LVL players to our 50 medium lvl players I am 100% sure they could do it NO PROBLEM TOO

I understand your points, however, our game is a war strategy. We grant all users the opportunity to develop their own strategies like either diplomatic resolution or aggressive offense. In-game conflicts are the part of the game. I hope you'l manage to create your own strategy on the way to success.
