Jorb my boi, why won't you just add it in purpose of testing?

The game is in eternal alpha right? Just add this mechanic to game and wait, if the community will decide that the game was better without it delete it.
Pixel art is and always will be better than this plastic looking Hafen you gave us here.

So the only use of brickwalls would be to tank an extra catapult shots? I'll stick to palisade spamming, thanks.

It should be the exact opposite as Granger suggested, as usual. Handbashing shouldn't be allowed on expired claims, so everyone has equal opportunity to loot things. However, palisades on claims with no shield should be bashable, so a base with higher defences invests in brickwalls rather than spamming palisades everywhere.

Fair point toward 'not on claimed palisade, shield/authority or not'.

this would only screw the pacific, casual players that won't bot, and the noobs

i see these small to medium claims, all in ruins, no wall standing

titans, big factions and botters won't be affected by this, they'll keep playing their drinking water simulation outside, with crazy stats

population of unique players without bot will fall

What's botting have to do with not being an idiot and making a brick wall?

Honestly, building up a palisade is just so easy, you throw down a pclaim, wait until it soaks, and boom, you have an expendable, spammable line of defense. AD does this everywhere in the world and even they want palisades to be hand-bashable. If i were to do the changes, i'd even make them ignore claim shields if the basher has enough strength.

Also: big factions attacking noobs is a big misconception, think about it, would anyone sane enough sit in front of a noob camp for 10 hours just to siege it down and loot his q6 buckets? It's not the wall deterring people from the raids, it's knowing there's nothing inside that you don't already have.

However, throwing down these cheapass palisades everywhere in the world, plus the fact that there's visitor buff in the game, plus the fact that you can't even attack the walls due to claim shields just gives way to griefing that we can't do crap about.

I changed my mind add this.
I need to explore some unsecured mines and too lazy to build catapult/wrecking ball.
