alright I'm going to disagree with you on that last bit its not too uncommon for both sides to use movecraft against movecraft during a siege

i didnt say they dont necessarly happen, there just isnt reason for them, its always more efficient to use wall cannons, if someone decides to go out of their way to defend with a tank, he basically isnt gaining anything

I'd say that's circumstancial there is often a few times that using tanks either on their own on the defensive with wall cannons supporting is superior

this suggestion is more focused on making battles that arent always just sieges happen, im not saying somene can take your town from 2000 blocks away, but, a determined site of battle with clear goal, away from settlements in middle of wilderness should be a thing, and in real life, you wouldnt limit defenses to only the settlements, you cant just let the enemy enter your nation and do whatever they want as long as they arent attacking the capital, i dont see why would people have anything against existance of non-siege battles unless they are afraid it will somehow shake up their safety.

also wouldnt it be damn fun to just go somewhere and pvp without all the fraud that comes with ganks and walls and unacessible defended positions

True my main concern is that sieges on their own are already pretty time consuming and pretty exhausting so I don't really want to add something onto that

Sieges themselves would be unchanged, problem is, there is always a case when one side is just strong enough to defend in a siege, and basically cant do anything else, and the other side is stronger, but also cant do anything due to defender advantage (could be seen in 4v1 nations war basically everyone vs Shinseistan on beggining of nations 2, they just couldnt siege Norston and it dragged on for weeks and we couldnt do anything either because every battle that wasnt siege defense was impossible to win due to numbers gap) so i could argue it would be less time consuming to do few short battles and then do a siege properly than to repeat siege 5 times and accomplish nothing, also, you are still perfectly able to just siege straigt away if you think you are strong enough to win it without stacking up the advantage prior, it basically doesnt in any way prolong wars.

So I'm not sure about the rewards but I think some ppl in Nations would like to see some form of server feature that includes land battles for Movecraft v Movecraft. But so far the consensus I see is that they would not be very utilized and I can *still* see that, despite what Klepto mentioned.
