Yep, I felt ugly side of it today. I was RTB and just as I landed one side caused the reset.

Needless to say, I got killed by ack at the field which was ours 2 seconds earlier.

Grrrr, not fair.

Sorry Hristo, my bad. We had tried to get 19 for a while already, I was on my 3rd goonie trip (in 20mins) there. When I was only about 10 miles out, the Rooks took 17, which only left you Knights with 20 and 19. I thought "what the heck" and went for the drop. Surprisingly, I mamaged to drop the drunks succesfully only seconds before I augered

Sorry for any inconvenience I caused you!

Hehe, no problem Camo, I don't blame pilots but the reset procedure.

Now, how about 2 minutes inactivity for acks at fields which change owners during the reset ?

Sigh, one could still get captured.

Hmm, how about....ahh, forget it

2 min might be a little long. With an approaching reset you'd find gooney birds staked around 11, 3, or 19 (they're strategically valuable for proximity to strat targets).
Maybe 30-60seconds?
Or dinnae let bases get captured during the "reset waiting period".
A notice of an arena reset in the buffer would be nice also =)

Yep, how about something like:

System: Field 1 captured by the Rooks
System: The Rooks have one the War
System: The arena will be reset in 1 minute.

System: The arena will be reset in 30 seconds.

Something like that should be workeable I would think. It should give anybody enough time to get out of ack range or exit a plane before the reset happens.

not an idea about this fact but a beg...
I beg you guys that when there are NO knights on the arena, dont go for our bases...lately i've entered in the arena finding I was the only knight there and watching that both rooks and bishes were going for bases...In both times I managed to stop one of the attacks (in one I downed a B-17,B26 and Corsair in a row with my Spit,and today i had to fight a B26, then go to 22 and fight a 205-hi LAMPO-and then return to 23 to DOWN A c47 while I still was on land, and then kill some paras also from land),
but as I cant be in two sides at the same time, the other field fall...

OK i guess this is a game...but I have a bad taste about coward people, and attack a defenceless country is a cowardice, so is doing two simultaneous attacs when there's only one user online!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So again I ask you to stop it...that is a cowardice.
BTW,Hitech,Pyro could you do something as a "no conquerable fields" for a country with no users online?

Lephturn's idea seems best to me, and quite simple.

Any chance, HTC crew ?
