To stop players from jumping forts.

The same rules as for quitting a SC (there the timer is 10 min).

I love how these nerds abandon one fort to lose another.
And then you have people crying how they can't win forts lmao.
They deserve to be farmed

leaving a fort to try to attempt to take the other fort should be considered as zone throwing if the warband leader orders it

recently, this has become the order of things. I don't think it should be.

I thought this was a pretty standard tactic? Push two zones so that one the forts is likely to be more weakly defended, then push the weaker one once you have the opposition tied up in the other. Sure, it's kind of cowardly, but it makes sense as a strategy.

It would make sense as a strategy if the winners of the fort would still be able to leave the fort and still get the same rewards imo.

What we know of as "double dipping in forts": Go one fort, if lost, quickly join the other fort, reap rewards from both while the defenders in the first fort are stuck inside for the duration that is left on the clock - or you miss on 1 royal.
I'm sure they can fix this in various ways, but then I'm afraid we would have even bigger stalemates seeing how Destro needs 5 star with Warhost numbers.

😂😂 every time. Then complain. Oh what a surprise, suddenly you're allowed to fly in to third floor. Because des didnt have the cohesion/synergy to take a fort the normal way

A nice simple change would be if the # of attackers dips below the # of defenders, the timer should tick down significantly faster.
