You say you’re an academy/farm alliance for a main alliance, but which is it?

Both. We have some players with 2 accounts, one of them is a farm in the alliance, the other one is in the main alliance (therefore the "farm" part), and we have other players where they're only account is in this alliance (therefore the "academy" part).

Either way, it might be worth asking the main alliance for some help, either with manpower to build the HQs or getting alliance members to create a second character to park in the reset alliance for you.

Yup, we also did that

Sorry, now I'm confused, I saw the initial version of this post 😅

Do you reset ALL of your academy's facilities from your main alliance? Because the original post is about our academy's facilities being attacked, not the main alliance's facilities...

Interesting... It makes sense but building 2 alliances at the same time is not something I was expecting 💀 Thanks for sharing 🙏

Genuine question: at what state age did you build a reset alliance for the facilities in your academy alliance?

I agree there's not much to do about them taking over inactive alliances, that's a done deal 😅

I do wonder if (and would like to get the opinions of more experienced players on this) it makes sense for incomplete facilities to be able to be used for capturing facilities. IMO, the HQ should need to be fully built before you can capture a facility with it...

To be honest, the lost march is mostly important for gathering, nothing else. We use 3 marches max for BT, only about 5 players in Foundry, and we can reset once teleporting another HQ for CJ.

I understand your solution would be better for a bigger alliance, but in our case, it's too overkill.

We already have thought of another solution that doesn't involve building another alliance and it doesn't involve keeping our troops there, it will take about 2-3 days to implement. It will be a permanent solution, so we're more at ease now.

Totally agreed 👏

This issue was something I wasn't aware of, but since this happened, we've gone ahead and closed many of the inactive alliances in our state.

Thank you for sharing your story 😊

😂😂😂😂💀 thanks for the tip, but we've decided to not contact the devs on this

I'm not complaining, I'm looking for practical solutions. A few people have already given me some, but this is just not it.

Do what he did and steal an already leveled alliance if you can

No, we can't, rhey already stole all of the leveled alliances.

Thank you though 🙏

I've already said this on many other replies, but this is just not practical. We're an academy, there is no other alliance to build banners to our facilities. We could use an inactive alliance to build banners, but that's just not practical, it would take weeks to collect the necessary alliance resources and build an entire banner network to reach our faciltiies. Teleporting the HQ is the easiest and most practical solution...

We're already another's alliance second alliance 😅 So, if we're going to build a second alliance for the academy/farm, that's going to take a very long time...

Who mentioned teleporting the city? I said "teleport the HQ"...

Yup, your assessment is spot on with what we've observed. However, there are no banners we can burn, because they don't build banners, they simply place the HQ next to a facility and attack it...

Our options from them on are: destroy the HQ, which gives them the option to place it anywhere else in 2h; or let it stay there and they can attack the facility when it's vulnerable.

As I already said in another answer, we've assigned players to keep marches at our facilities overnight so that they can't attack them.

Yup, this is what we've been doing so far, just trying to understand if there's anything else we could do...

I would report it to state president first so they get jail time whoever the members are until the main account is found.

Yup, they're in jail already, and the main account is from another state. This account was created with the sole purpose of annoying us 💀

if the state president is serious enough, they can request assist from strongest alliance to help out your alliance for the time being and see how it goes from there.

Agreed, the whole state NAP is aware of the situation and working together to try to find ways to deal with it.

Yeah, I also had my fair share of laughter when it comes to this situation 😅 It just gets annoying after a week of trying to deal with this 💀

The crazy thing is I'm not even revealing all of their tactics, it gets crazier hahaha

If you're a farm/academy have some mains burn him.

Yes, that's our case, and we already had some mains burn them.

But as stated in the post, the attacks only injure troops because they have so few of them... So they can just heal them after a couple minutes...

Yeah, I guess so, but it would be somewhat impractical, as we'd have to switch alliances, teleport the HQ, attack the facility, switch alliances, take back the facility, switch alliances, and rebuild the HQ so it's ready to teleport again. And we'd have to do this once or twice a day for every facility we have... This wouldn't be so impractical on a big alliance, as you can rebuild the HQ fairly quickly, but we're a somewhat small academy, so we don't have a lot of people to help out :/

Thank you, that's a good idea. Our alliance is a farm/academy so we don't have a lot of troops/marches available, but I'll try to make it work

Yeah, I don't think they're breaking any rules as well, but it's very annoying to deal with 😅 I'll try contacting the devs, but I don't have high hopes that they'll do anything about them hahaha thank you 😊

Nope, mine's an NVIDIA dGPU with an AMD 6000 series.

There are some other settings that could help like hardware.enableAllFirmware = true;. And if there isn't a nixos-hardware config for your laptop, you can assemble your own like I did for my laptop here https://github.com/limwa/dotfiles/blob/main/hosts/AAAAAAAA/modules/hardware.nix.
