New Siege Implementation: Siege Claims

[jorb]

As a fix, maybe siege claim could only affect the claim that the damaged object was at?

Brings back all the problems from last world, in terms of overlapping claims and this and that.

but changing walls or adding new are kinda groundbreaking for basebuilding.

Yeah, except the assumption that brick walls would be permanently useless was perhaps one you were bold to make.

PvErs are so melodramatic, dont worry no one is going to spend all day to siege your shitty hermittage bmjclark

I think a lot of guys are not understanding this thread at all and I dont blame you because jorb writes like a swedish potato brain but the 100x100 siege claim of authority is for the SIEGE ENGINE IN QUESTION and it still has to move and I presume can still break down after 25 tiles? Sure a siege engine that has built up authority 50 tiles away can be used to half the time of a siege engine closer to the walls but thats not super easily abused

youd still have to somehow secure a siege engine 50 tiles away and then use it for 24 hours to build up authority then 24 hours later build one closer at half authority righT??

So it's Salem "Trial by Fire" which I had suggested before

Regarding complaints about walls, what is stopping you from building them on the inside of the palisade? Did you just never intend to build a brick wall?

If I understand correctly then if someone will have a brickwall and a palisade few tiles behind it then siege engines can just shoot the palisade and build the siege claim authority that way and then just shoot the brickwall at the end so it's still the palisade sieging time that counts, which basically forces everyone to replace their palisades with brickwalls, not just add another layer of brickwall, or am I wrong?

I'm curious about this situation as well.

considering that they were useless for all of 2 worlds I don't think it's as bold of a decision as you think

Well, bwalls were totally pointless until this post so yes.

Oh my bad I missed that question, well in my view I think it should be that hitting a palisade or a brick wall still provides you with the same amount of authority increase and based on my understanding it would still take the same amount of time regardless in order to build up the authority you need to damage the brick wall instead of only the palisade.

Idk bro still seems reasonable to have left room for them
