Well have in mind that out of those 70 destro none got a bag or 6 invader. they just joined back to win the fort for the shakes of it. Once you leave a fort there is no additional reward. Regarding rewards on looser sides I agree with the looser side not getting the same RPs and close to the same crests as the winning side.

Moreover this same strategy was used all the time in the official by our alliance. we had 5 warbands split pushing all 3 pairings to reach the city. If you want to counter it then you have to move fast and organize better.

Order tried to do the same stategy in KV and eataine today. They failed because we had 2 warbands on discord moving from area to area fast. Split pushing only denies a faction from the option of turtling up inside a keep for 2 hours and waiting for an attack. That is making the game far more reactive.

Now if you wish to see warhammer RoR becoming an endless tankwall vs tankwall and forever-one-keep-defending game then I believe that this will kill the game.

Yet again try to understand that keeping the postern doors locked in a fort when the main door is broken without any mechanism to decide that (like s2 taking 20 mins or so, similar to having a 3 stars ranked keep), that only favors order and its usual 20BW setup in forts.

We had some awesome fights today. We killed and got killed numerous times and in the end the most resilient faction reigned supreme. Again thank you VII for the awesome battles. Though you should stretch your guild events a bit more :P or recruit hardcore players to play on US time.

I got to see the numbers firsthand today in the dwarf fort about 1.5 hours ago. Defender numbers were way low compared to the elf fort that we initially left. What exactly is going on with the portals in Altdorf? Error message? Portals spawning on each other? It was maybe 1 WB of order v ~ 70 destro in dwarf fort. Were there just not enough order on to defend?

What!?! Developers place highly desirable "end game" currency in instances with exploitable reward mechanics and a significant minority of the population collaborates to they can farm the rewards.

Color me shocked!

Exploit works like this:
1. Destro opens first fort, order joins
2. Destro leaves first fort and opens second fort, a good share of order follows
3. After Destro wins second fort they will quickly go back to first fort
4. Order is unable to get back to first fort because the portal will switch between "reservations pending" and "resources depleted" even though the defender sides are pretty much empty
5. Easy double win for Destro.

So at point 2. your logic has great gap. Why are order following? Why are they leaving the first fort to get to the second?
Let me answer that to you.
To get loots from both forts....
No exploit here. We just manipulate the human greed. We are worshipers of the dark gods after all :) and order fall straight in our dark trap!

So you think the right thing for Order would be to sit on their hands for 50minutes in the first Fort doing nothing and give Destro a guaranteed win in the second Fort? Also, following to the second Fort wouldn't be an issue at all if Defenders could easily get back into the first Fort like Attackers do. But we can't get back in because we get locked out.
Also the rewards system is screwed up in this situation. If you stay, fight hard and maybe win - 6 tickets. You switch and afk - guaranteed 8 tickets.

There is no any exploit, there is just buggy portal. as I see the new claim from the side of order in it, fix it and the whining will stop.
