Weird, I was PMed by 2 people who said they were raided by someone who kept building fences near their walls (right outside the claim) and nuking them, effectively destroying walls on claim, without even activating braziers. I told them to post about it but seems they haven't

But is it a problem? It's not a problem just because you say it is. I have yet to see any threads about successful raids since the last update. I do see someone on Roanoke got brave and tried to attack the Russians and failed miserably trying that destroy split rail thing.


You might want to reread that thread

Sir, you must be drunk.. Or you just choose to read the most recent post's of any thread. I have had a few friends get raided with this method being used. :)

yes. I am not sure if this is an intended feature, but it is possible to build a fence outside and use it to damage inner wall that is on the claim as in this example.

That's a nice lack of braziers you have going on there.

Yes, the fact that walls won't do anything for you if you don't have braziers. If he'd had a few in that inner area, they might have gotten in with that fence trick, considering they were able to build the split rail right there next to the wall, but they would have had a much harder time with the three walls I see beyond that.

I'm just glad I lived to see the day where Dallane needs Mereni to explain game mechanics to him. Oh how the mighty have fallen.

That is a fearsome looking duo. I would have paid the treaty if I were you...
