2. Nothing. Even without charter stones, it's been possible to do this. If you think it hasn't, you haven't been thinking outside the box enough. Destroy? I doubt they'll destroy. They'll leave that to you to waste your time with. They'll keep authority up so you can't just take the village.
3. Same reason as always? Competition? For the lulz? The loot has never been worth it. Those that have the loot that it is worth have rarely been raided, and those that can be raided have rarely had loot worth the time. And you can kill people. Maybe your standards are too high? Maybe you're picking the wrong targets? If you want to just focus on those things, let's wax philosophical. The profit is there, but because it's a video game, it's always a hollow victory. You gain nothing for your welfare or your children's welfare, which is the only thing life is about.*
You might have better replies to this in The Moot or Inn. Up to you, as this is the best place for questions without trolling and BS answers, but a lot of those invested in that part of the game don't visit here often.
*I could go in depth and such, but really wrong forum, and it's all a lot of hot air.
Nice answer, thanks.
As for 1 - it is more interesting and open to tactic solutions if village support comes by horse/feet. They can do mistakes, or play it well. Attackers can also do some scouting. If help just magically pops up inside a brickwalled village - all these fun is reduced to "wait till we owerpower them tenfold. Open gate. Profit"
As for 2 - I can invent 2-3 ways to evacuate without charter stone. But all of them require some initial preparation and playtime investment. Which is good for the game, cause you plan something, you complete it in the game, you are satisfied. With charterstone you just see the ram outsade and teleport everything elsewhere. Dull and dumb.
As for 3 - I agree with you. Partly. I'm trying to say that it was more reason and fun before and less now. IMO instead of making the game more boring in the edngame it should be made more fun, no? There should be a way to make the life of the weak a bit safer while wars between strong more profitable, less online demanding and less predictable.
