Defending

[Owen]

Alright so the whole concept of being the defending clan in theory should be defending a certain area which you as a clan decide,

so what i don't understand is, some clans end up walking ridiculously close when attacking,

and the defending clan can do nothing about it.

The way i see it, surely the defending clan should be able to just hit the attacking clan as soon as they enter the area they are 'defending'?

I'll use an example from last Friday.

TLP were defending a DP attack. DP potted up,

an rushed in towards TLP but stopped short of attacking us (us being TLP).

The call was made to hit them and the fight began with us dealing the initial damage.

There were a few people spamming autowin after the fight but nothing really became of it.

It didn't really affect the outcome, as TLP ended up sweeping it 3-0,

however maybe had it have been the decider whilst it was tied 1-1,

things may have been different.

So what do you think, should the defending clan be able to hit the attacking clan if they enter the area they are defending?

Discuss.

What exactly do you consider the defending area? Maybe we should establish this first, because to some it's 3 squares, and to others it can be up to 8.

[Sparatic Gun]

some low level clan think its okay to dd right on top of us and we still won. and then we did it to them next round n won again. it was funny :)

[walli]

It is a ******* joke.

 

Clans know now they come within attacking distance of my clan we will make you eat the curb... some clans had to learn the hard way.

 

You're spot on, you are defending your terratory so if they invade it is an attack and you can attack back.

 

Imo, if they can hit u with a bow without moving they have attacked.

 

 

 

The other thing pissing me off is cunts dd'ing on a run in. Completely ******* retarded and against the objective of it, its simply just them defending.

when there 2-3 squares i tell them to back up or we attack

[`Pure]

if they can be hit. they will be hit.

[Josh--]

I like it when they come close i like to fall in on their Fall in and sometimes i like to hit the person leading the fall in with a whip just to warn them off >.>

Jibs had a good policy on it if they stay too close for too long hit em if they're going to stand there and pick piles for 20 minutes **** it.

except it wasn't a run-in it was south side defends :happy:

He's talking about CP :P

[Jonty]

In a prep with FOE about a month ago, we walked just within sight of them, as in right on the other side of the mini map, and they rushed us.

 

....then we won.

 

Don't tell me thats acceptable rofl.

No you didnt, you came within about 7 steps of us, still pretty sure vid is somewhere.

 

That is close enough to be hit with a bow.

[Jonty]

Then that would make you the attacking team?

[Sniping]

Couldn't have said it better myself.

[Mark]

I'm going to have to agree, I absolutely hate it when clans come within sight or within a few steps and stand there for a few minutes organizing their attack. The whole policy of "attacking clan gets first hit, if defending clan attacks first it's auto-lose" is complete nonsense.

 

I would tend to agree with this:

 

if they can be hit. they will be hit.

[Titans]

yes this has long sat at unease with me, I feel if they are within range then hit them but often times I dont have my members due this as to avoid dealing with the auto win spams

[Ayo Loki]

I agree with the defending territory stuff, I say anything beyond the bone border line is an attack.

 

Until clans/teams can agree on some sort of defending line, I like to abuse the fact that they can't attack by trolling them a bit

[Matty]

i 100% agree. i think there should be an established rule that you can attack within 8 spaces if the oponient comes in

[`Rage]

defending clan has all the rights, i remember one time it was zo was leading ir in a miniwar, he was literally 3 steps away from cp's dd and he expected us not to attack? you know how it ended up, and the after convo was funny stuff too

 

i dont see it a disadvantage for the attacker since they have all the time in the world to come in and charge 90% of the time, same with getting pre-calls and what not, then again i remember back then cp would always have a "charge in fast" policy because the other clan would take their damn sweet time

[Solo]

Doesn't make sense. Please tell me how you come up with these rules, is there a rule book for RuneScape tactics now? I could care less about what people say lol, I know what's best for my clan and I'll do it. When a clan defends, a clan defends, they don't attack the opposing clan regardless of their distance because thats just plain retarded, and vice versa.

WE CLEAR?

[Mateo]

If they're close enough to us to where they can be attacked, I fall in on them.

[Target]

i agree
