All fields are capturable

[cav58d]

It looks like HTC has done away with the red squares around HQ, and all fields are capturable?  HTC, is this for good, or will it be changed back next patch...

Secondly...Right now the bish have like 6 fields left...What happens if they lose all their fields with the new "must own 40% of both country" rule?

Only in LWO and already reported in Bug Forum.

IMO all fields should be capturable

I think all fields, and all sheep, should be capturable. BTW, ..are my sheep back? I'm afraid to look in the arena?

YAHOO!!  ALL Fields sould be capturable!!  I LOVE IT!!!!
Please leave it as is... When Fields are protected, nobody
goes near those OR those next to them causing the war
to grind to a snails pace at times.

I understand where HTC is coming from in theory. But in
practice it doesn't work. When all Fields are capturable,
you will have a 'self-governing' situation. We will
automaticly be bottlenecked down concentrating ALL our
forces into the last base(s). ALL our fire power will be
focused on defendeing that last base. HUGE BATTLE!!!
Near imposible to capture the last base. FUN FUN FUN!

In practice it does work. And when all fields are capturable, we don't have a "self-governing" situation at all. We had such a system in the past. Eternal gangbanging on one country until reset. Rinse & Repeat.
And under the new requirements for winning a war, one country can and will be wiped off the map if all bases are capturable without seeing an arena reset for perhaps some days. And even if one base is left (because it's difficult to capture that base), it' no fun to have only a constantly vulched field to take off from...
