Instead of the 3ic idea - have the alliance leader be able to set "alliance admins" - who have the same powers as a 2ic. Essentially that allows a larger number of 2ic's. Alliances that have Senates/High Councils or whatever you call them would benefit from this.

What a truely exellent idea.

Re: "Super" PPT and 3IC

3rd in command sounds good.

but the super ppt sounds to me like, a method, where there will be like half the server on ppt at the same time, and then would be no one to attack. etc

dunno how that works but would suck if the only days i could play and attack would be ones where everyone is garunteed covered for ppt.

and also would mean less people buying ppt with £/$ so Admin wouldn't like, lol

Re: "Super" PPT and 3IC

3IC or even the more custom leader ship idea that was said somewhere (Leader chooses who can do what) as Most Alliances arent comprised of 1 or 2 individuals responsible for everything.
So yeah good idea.

PPT seems a bit needless it only helps people who go away for 4 days, in which case just tell me when your PPT ends and ill be glad to take your naq :D
For the most part it wont be much use.

But hey if you want to sacrafice the ability to do a quick few attacks inbetween 2 PPT's and 1 MT as well, then be my guest. :D

But yeah for the people who can only log in once every 3 days it could be useful. So why not, its not exactly free.

I think it is one of the most useful and adiquitly prices suggestions out there.

People are going to PPT 4 days a week anyway, and killing as many MT as possible has been Admins goal in the past.

To me it just makes sense.

Yes, I agree. I suggested a minimum 24 to 48 hr "cool down" period between super PPT's. You can do 8 days doing the normal PPT, but the super would limit you to 4 days max in a row. So again it has an adiquit down side.

Re: "Super" PPT and 3IC

I dont like this suggestion to be honest, the PPT one atleast.

Reason is is that 48hr PPT has been in the game since the start, if you want to four day PPT you have to buy two seperate PPTs.
What is wrong with the current system?
There is risk involved in doing back to back ppts and that making sure you are there to re-new the ppt. I personally wouldnt want to see all risk around ppts gone.

However, i do agree it has its benefits to those having say a three day weekend break or whatever, its makes it alot easier for them actually physically away from the computer and it does get rid of MTs however i feel this would further make the game 'weak' in my eyes - weaker than it currently is.

If you go away for longer than 2 day PPT i would say you should go on vacation mode. thats what its for. you dont lose anything, you dont gain anything.


The 3IC idea i like though, having been from an alliance that used to be led by a 3 person HC in the old days, i see the wisdom in it for me (maybe not now) and others like me. And it doesnt effect the game like the PPT thing would.

EDIT: I like Lore's suggestion above of a 'cool off' time. But my personal stance stands that there is too much PPT time as it is. This is supposed to be a war game afterall. Most ppl spend over half the week on ppt protected.

4 days is 4 days, old or new its still 4 days.

But I agree with you somewhat about the vacation VS Super PPT.
