Default Expansion- Siege Mechanics

As you can probably understand there is a lot going on here at Aventurine with the player transfers, the second expansion, player forums, updated account management system, and much more coming up.

What we learned today is that the expansion will be delayed by a couple of weeks, until mid November because along with the new features being added to the game, the developers decided to include a major revamp of the siege and conquest mechanics. A lot of the changes they’re implementing also reflect on feedback given by the community. We'll try to find out more specifics on this and post an update about it.

Great!
This is a core feature of the game and it really needed a revamp!

Good, i would say take your time because this is really going to be a blast(the expansion) and will attract alot of new players. Ofcourse if its done in a wrong way it will have a negative effect.

6 hours is too long period for lots of players to stay together same day so make it 3-4.

clan that owns city must be in defanece position not attacking there own city.

12 hour time that sets clan owning city when it can be attacked.

attacking side while sidge lasts have remote camp and bank that can be destroyed.

attacking side must annaounce sidge 12h before attack.

attacking side cant bank in sidged city.

The delay is really a BIG pain, we should get a magic fix asap its been going on like this for too long now. All it needs is a few hotfixes!
