Shallow Water Port Battles Now Favour Attacker

[derekticus]

With the newish "No Area Captures For First 5 Minutes" it seems the Attackers now have a huge advantage in Shallow Water Port Battles.  This is partly due to the speed of the Ships and that the attacker can be spread out and grab the outer 2 Areas before the defense can set themselves.  In a recent shallow water PB, the battle was declared over (1,000 pts achieved) extremely shortly after the Ships of the two Nations fully engaged each other.  Only one or two Ships were sunk/captured prior to victory being achieved.

This should be moved to suggestions

Sounds like some one needs to be more aggressive.

and it's 10 mins nothing can happen other than fighting and well fighting since no cap circle gains points.  It's the exact same rules as in deep water port battles.  

 

And why is this in global nation section any way?
