Should a game restrict you from doing normal human things (like taking a vacation) it is not a game but a job (or slave pit, since you don't get paid).
A game should give options for human beings to keep being human, especially when progression is long-term like in Haven.

Pretty much. The surest way to kill all the fun in a hobby is to turn it into a job.

Now you need a WB/Ram/Catapult to undo what the troll did! Have sectioned off claims and areas? Well he just blocked every gate with a corner post you can't even target and wrecked your village! Want to piss someone off? Look for a claim that is only JUST to the wall. Place corner posts infront of their gates! They are now trapped inside!


I don't know if this was fully thought through but I foresee MASS trolling...


You cant build anything on claim if it not yours.
And know what? In legacy you could build even on claim and there were no MASS trolling.

That's just plain wrong.

pray for einher was a bad system it must never come back in any way or shape of form
ya'll need to learn to accept your death
become the samurai you wimps
but maybe there should be a system that would allow peaceful people to inherit more at the cost of combat capacity alternative to the burial system like beliefs from legacy i wouldn't mind if that was back
