Topic: [75997] I really want to see my alliance's movements

[-75997] AgentY [None] :: Aug. 17, 2012, 1:52 a.m.
My alliance can't see if i am sending an attack or sending a spy on someone. When they attack or spy, I cant see theirs. Just so you know, i go to the all section to see my movements to see. They say they sent it, but I cant see theirs, and they cant see mine. It used to be fine for the first couple weeks, but now it isnt working. Is this a bug? Please reply soon.

thats because you need to foward the reports

yeah you have to send the reports.
not a bug.

If a member of your alliance has spied on someone the little spy icon will appear on the spied castle and if you want to attack the information is there.

And as everyone else said, if you make an alliance rule then all spy/battle reports are forwarded to everyone then you will know what your members are up to.

Some players might want to keep their battles secret and that's their perogative.

i mean that I cant see the people they are attacking in the travel overview. If it isnt a bug, then they should add that feature.

I understand what you are saying AgentY. Why is there a tab under travel over view for watching alliance movement yet when you you click on it there is nothing - despite someone already sending an attack?
This is a question asked by many with no no answer. We are not talking about after the attack or spying has happened but while it is happening.

The alliance movement is for:

a) Support troops
b) When an alliance member is getting attacked

At least, I think so. It's also possible that it shows resources sent between alliance members. But it's definitely not there for no reason.

If all my armies being sent out could be seen by my alliance members, they would see 18 shadow soldiers sent out 1 each on individual attacks (long story), attacks on RBCs and attacks on players that I may not want them to see. Multiply this by 65 (maximum members for one alliance), and you've got a LOT of completely useless things being shown. I really don't think that this is a good idea.

BobFighter834 you should check out my thread http://en.board.goodgamestudios.com/empire/showthread.php?33538-Alliance-War-Attacks-Tab, I put a twist on the attacks shown that you may find more reasonable.

bobfighter makes a good point
but cant they at least show attacks on enemies you are at war with?

I already have a thread on this in Suggestions http://en.board.goodgamestudios.com/empire/showthread.php?33538-Alliance-War-Attacks-Tab you should check it out if you haven't seen it yet.

Another suggestion along these lines.... I'd like to see the players name along with the castle name. During attacks, resource transport, etc. I always have to click the castle and visit it just so I can see who it is. It'd be so much easier to tag the player's name onto any of those screens.
