I'll use my brain for this

you use your very best acs attack fleet on some random elite.his fleet is gone then.yeah for you.onlyy one problem.your coordinates are now in possesion of your coordinates.the one where I would bet your best fleet is.along with the coords of all your buds.so that guys alliance mates are angered so what do they do?1 by one they will annaliate you and your comrades fleets.with no opposition.

do I get a cookie now?

If only I were as optimistic as you. So yeah, that's not gonna happen.

Have you seen the Xtreme server? It's a helluva lot more profitable to team up with the strongest than to take them down. Look at 4HM, or VVV before them, or ~V~ before them. It would be even more profitable if they had ACS attack.

then whats the point of acs attack?

also standard is different. strong players attack strong players because inactives are not producing enough resources, same deal with weaker players. Elmstreet and kaparii get way more resources than SOA, why? its because SOA has no real profits because all the good profit is in SOA. so basicly, its a different matter.

Us middle level people like to fight amongst ourselves sometimes, too

thats probably the smartest thing schnitter has said.I really don't see much of a point to acs attack as a whole.I say that very loosely though because I am not a fleeter and don't know what difficulties they have when attacking people.

I also have no idea about standard war dynamics.

Thanx for all the replies. Sorry if i stirred up the nest!!!!!!!!!!!! one thing is for sure i am a new advocate and voter for acs attack. Bring it baby!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

what if acs attack could be used only on players with a higher point score than your own combined alliance point average. that would protect the little guy from the big boys?

Im also not sure why the heavy hitters would want to band together on smaller players, thier shared yield would not make it worth it for them would it?

Or am i drinking my own bath water?

If that was possible It would be great but It is unfair to only give it to lesser players.but we could do something similer to the player protection rules with it.this is if it is implemented ofcourse.
