Yes, because if you want all your land back, you need to retal it yourself. OR you can open it up clan-wide, and 1 retal should be more than enough to get all the land back if countries with similar NWs are chosen properly.
Also, why shouldn't special attacks be considered legit retals? In most cases you'll actually lose less by getting retalled with a missile.
Our policy extends both ways and it gives disenfranchised countries a means to deter hits on them that are otherwise unretallable by them.
Finally, it's more fun this way. We play this game to have fun, right? At least we do.
Did you even look at the news I posted? Go back and look at the full news. #226 is grabbing #159. #159 fires off one nuke for more acres than the ghost acres #226 received. #226 immediately stops grabbing #159.
That is not promoting landgrabbing. For you to claim otherwise is insane.
For the first time in my earth career, I got 35k acres this set. How did I do it? By lging and retalling.
With country:country, which most alliances have been following with largely successful results, everyone prospers.
Ask LCN and Collab whether or not they profited off the land trading we had going on. They will definitely say yes.
Even Evo profited from it, so I don't know why you're complaining. Have you ever seen a set where PDM gave and received so many lgs?
