I think everyone here has noticed that you can get more points by cooperating with other guilds to exchange squares each round, but unfortunately there is no way to communicate to other guilds that you want to do this - and even the members of one's own guild don't necessarily understand this or honor this. I've seen some truly stupid shit. We win a square with 150 strength left over, making it as clear as we can that we want to maximize points for both guilds - and then they drop 400000 troops on the square for the next turn, to make the cost of reconquering it too high. This hurts them more than it hurts us, but I still just have to shake my head at the stupidity.

And then of course sometimes I leave a square easy to conquer and the other guild does the same, but then one of my stupid allies plops something down at the last minute so we can keep that square, and/or some stupid member of the other guild does the same thing - and it makes things much more difficult.

I am thinking that maybe some sort of signal in guild names, such as including the capital letters PX at the end (which in army terminology is a post exchange) could let those who want to exchange captured territory each turn know how to identify each other. It will still be difficult policing one's guild against players who come in not knowing the strategy or the signal, though.

Any thoughts?

BTW, I'm looking to join a guild where players have a minimum strength of at least 600K points. Maybe even 700K.
