on a more serious note resupply is killing the game off hours rather than take off and engage people just grab supps instead.   

Can we go back to removing DT commands (I do love them but it removes any fog of war we had)  defenders and attackers have it all to easy.
remove all resupply to town buildings / ack.

Great point. DT commands are awesome. Im usually asking somebody to check them while I'm engaged with multiple cons.

  Solution: Take HQ icon off Map, only viewed to friendly side like CVs. Possibly allow for HQ relocation like Cvs in case of spies.  :noid  Imagine a waypoint on land as HQ migrates to the rear area or closer to a resupply point.  :cool:

      Yup... Same ole same ole, Logged in tonite to find HQ down. n City raped, so HQ DT was at max. Several people resupped it, only to have it dropped again within 3 minutes.  :bhead

      Was about to logout when Junky opened a custom arena. (only fun I had all nite).  Several Nits just said "screw it" and logged for the nite.

           I let my account lapse for 2 weeks this month, deciding wether to bother continuing my sub. I think Next month the decision will be easier to make.

Sad. One setting is destroying the game. Was a out to log on. Think I'll pass. Wonder how long the lights will stay on if we keep losing good players?

I will be out too....I have limited time in here and every time I log in the HQ goes down....I don't have the time to fart around looking for something to do....I'm tired of one person being able to axe the game for me so I will not renew after this month..... :old:

As a Rook, I do not wish my fellow rooks to kill the bish/knit HQ.
I WANT THE ENEMY TO STAY LOGGED ON AND DEFEND BASES!

For this reason and until HQ is hardened or its destruction effects tweaked
I will call out on ch200 any rook that will try to bomb the bish/knit HQ and give their grid coords
I call my fellow players from the other two chess pieces to do the same.

I got told officially that if I gave away the locations of "hidden" cv groups to the enemy that it would be considered cheating and I could get suspended doing it. This is very close to that. You may want to get clarification from HTC before you get in trouble for it.

There are questions better left un-asked...  :P

It is not the same as giving away locations of CVs. If I give away CV I hurt many players in my country. If I give away a single player ib to enemy HQ, I hurt that player only. I will try to convince him first on private that he is ruining the game for many and should bomb something else. I am all for bombing the strats, just leave the HQs alone.

I can't decide which is more puzzling; the fact that HTC engineered the "HQ down/darbar down" system, or that they won't address the problem.  :headscratch:

Just to point out how ridiculous this is getting....This HQ is totally undefendable... I'ts so easy to evade radar, pull out of NOE and have enough time to get alt over the target before anyone could ever hope to get to you. Even worse is that its incredibly hard to re-sup. This is not fun..this is a chore. No one wants to play a game that feels more like work than fun. An easy stopgap thats been mentioned plenty of times before is to turn up the hardness of HQ.  If it just took 2 sets, that would be much easier for me to stomach. At least it would require some sort of teamwork and planning.
