Anyway, while were into "Timer", maybe that 10s Timer to accept a match could be increased to 30s so that the ONE time a day it pops we actually have time to click it 8-)


yeah i would increase slightly that too...often i ctrl+esc and browse the internet...maybe 15-20 sec is the best. I think that the best way is provide different formats (ie: 300-600-900 AP split) where players must be forced to use the maximum AP (or nearly so) and anybody can play what it prefers (personally i prefer big warbands but i imagine other players preferring small ones). In this way bonuses will only be applied depending on the format you play: for example winning a 300 AP match will give you 300 ducats, a 600 AP 600 ducats and so on (note: numbers are made up). I believe this is a more interesting solution that opens different styles and makes everybody happy. I also add that at this stage (closed beta) you obviously can't expect many players , especially with high AP armies.

Hi guys,

I think we wrote about that some time ago (in the patch "teaser" post that we made before christmas), but chosing AP for your games is about to change drastically.
So we don't feel that we need to extend this time, because we expect so you won't need it that much very soon.

I am sorry that we cannot discuss that feature much more at this point, but I'm pretty sure you will speak about it right here on this forum in the days to come ;)

New player here, still haven't had time to look everything up about what has been done and what is to come.
Thanks a bunch for dropping a few words about this :mrgreen:
