I think there needs to be a distinct difference between RAIDS and SIEGES. A raid should be conducted quickly with little destruction of property or life. Where as a siege should be a prolonged affair with aims to cripple or destroy a villages ability to function. 

I feel a raid should be able to use the previous method of rams. If a village is vigilant they should be able to withstand a raid easily. If a raider is able to access a village with a ram they should have a time frame from the point they enter a village to exit the grounds before receiving SHP damage. This will limit destruction of objects and camping hearth fires.

A siege should involve greater resources, shut down movement from the village via teleportation and allow for greater destruction. With no time limit. It should be a formal declaration. I like the flag options mentioned in other threads.

this update sounds horrible

What is stopping me, from making 12 rams 1 hour apart outside of someones base? they would have to stay up all day long to defend against it.... there is no way to defend an opponent who is willing to make multiple rams. you just continuously make ram after ram until they just quit. This will ruin the game.

Apparently a player wanting to raid can play every 4 hours or 12 hours straight but a defending village can't?

Invincibility abuse will be horrible. Imagine a village that has 2 gates, one north and one south. Raiders build a ram by the wall. wait 12 hours, then build rams right in front of the gates, stopping any villagers from going out, making it impossible for the villagers to go out and destroy the ram by the wall, unless they have some of their characters outside of the village...

I log in after dinner.
An unbreakable ram was placed in front of my gate and now I can't get out of my place.
I guess 'll go do laundry.

Yes because the attackers get to choose this period you imbecile.

Well, I really hope that the lack of replies after the first pages means they decided to discuss the change again.
