How do most of the guys handle retal here in Primary?
72hrs? 1:1?
The common one which do not provoke others to suicide on you.

I don't hit people who can retal me.

If someone hits me, and I can retal them, I hit them until I am satisfied. If someone hits me just once, and I can't retal them in the next 72 hours, I let it go. If someone hits me more than once, I will remember them later in the set, even if I cannot retal immediately.

But most importantly, I never get retalled.

If you retal me past the 72h mark I farm you. If I'm bored and you retal someone else two weeks later I might farm you too.

I thought a lot of people did a 1 week guideline.

ya 72 hours I always accept. Past that I weigh farming you and possibly going to war with playing out the reset and letting it go.

IMO Rockman if you don't get retalled once every other set or so you aren't grabbing aggressively enough.

it's whatever you want it to be.... you just gotta deal with the consequences of your actions when attacking or retalling. Because nobody has to accept an attack, but neither do they need to accept a retal.

I agree with both Serpentor and RockMan. It's whatever you and the other party involved make it out to be. The cost of being retaliated successfully is too high. Better to sacrifice a few hundred acres than losing a whole day's worth of LGing cuz of retal imo.

You're usually not worth hitting.

Coz I was hit 3 times in a day and I might lose one in 72 hours. lol
But I guess have to leave the guy unretalled coz it would cost me more expenses to buy many jets. Gained enough on the first 2 retal

You should retal even if it is after 72 hours out of sheer principle. It will likely deter other countries from grabbing you if they see that you will retal - especially if you do so past 72 hours or even a week.

Maybe, but it might get you beat down by people who don't accept late retals. Tbh, if you're getting attacked by multiple people you've probably done something wrong in the first place.

better question is what do you do when someone RoR's?

I'm sitting on a low defense with 1B+ money.
Maybe that was the case. lol

If I've already been hit in the last day, and I could retal the other person if I didn't have other retals I needed to take, then I would retal them any time that set.

Hitting someone who can retal you, and hoping they don't because they have other retals to take, is extremely cowardly and should be punished.

There no policies in this server, do what ever you like. 2nd hit on any country bear your own risk.
