Re: using village claims to jump over walls
Can you protect yourself against this bug if you village claim an entire island? or is it possible to stuff the intervening water with boats?
Once a man has changed the relationship between himself and his environment, he cannot return to the blissful ignorance he left. Motion, of necessity, involves a change in perspective.

What about... wait for it... two wall layers and the space between them filled with constructions signs? That would make it pretty hard to jump over that unless you're willing to put the same amount of constructions signs outside.burgingham wrote:He means you could stuff your entire town with signs as well, that way nobody can get in.

Re: using village claims to jump over walls
That is no different from just extending your claim the same size. You basically even do the work for the attacker by already filing some space he could otherwise have warped in to. A huge village claim is the best defense against wall jumping (and a regular check of your walls of course).

Re: using village claims to jump over walls
Village claim the island and they won't be able to wall jump, ever. You'll still have to worry about rams if you made a non-jorb fistable fort though but that is easy to patrol.spectacle wrote:Can you protect yourself against this bug if you village claim an entire island? or is it possible to stuff the intervening water with boats?
If you keep focusing on the shadow behind, you will not see the light in front of you.
Being successful isn't just about hard work and succeeding, it is also about picking yourself up when you fail.

Re: using village claims to jump over walls
Anyways can we snip this stuff to hel and get back to discussing with actual mechanics? 
-=puts monocles back on=-
Anyways. I think we reiterated on how to prevent getting wall jumped (aside from having ice wall and trampoline wall). Basically make a village, extend the claim so wall jumping is impractical. But what I highly recommend is getting a brick wall since there are a lot of palisade bashers out there these days.
So what counters the brick wall? Rams, brick bashers (only a tiny few), and the anvil god.

Re: using village claims to jump over walls
Village claim counters decay now at least which is a big plus. However a poorly placed village claim won't do much and it certainly won't save you if you are pretty much careless with your security.
