emminent domain a bit too easy to do.

Postby firefox2026 » Sat Mar 02, 2013 5:25 am

well a freind of mine built a claim stone on the village and of course forgot to add me access too it so I was curious if I could nuke his claim stone. Of course I wasn't planing on doing this, but I just was trying to see how it works. Unfortunately I made the assumption that it would bring up a menu or at least tell me are you sure you want to do this cause it will cost xxx silvers.. Well it just nuked the claim stone without any menu.. So I would think it would be better if there was some sort of windows for dummies thing here that at least tells you "are you sure you want to delete this claim stone." lol

AFAIK, claim stones can only be destroyed once their upkeep runs out? They're pretty weak after that, though.
I have neither the crayons nor the time to explain it to you.

Not with a town bell. Eminent Domain can be evoked at any time as long as the town has enough authority (silver) in the bell of 2x the size of the target claim. This and waste claims are currently the only reasons to have town bells.

ah, I didn't know it was called that, and the OP never mentions that the claim was removed via a townbell.
On the other hand, why would you pull up the action and perform it if you weren't planning on actually removing the claim ?

It seems like you had a really hard time reading the post. He DID mention that it was, just rather indirectly. he also specifies why he would've even tried.
