night protection

Night Protection:

Night Protection is a feature which has been added to this game so that you won’t have to play it 24/7 (although by all means feel free to do so if you wish) ;), and it works as follows:

• From midnight to 08:00 night protection reduces the power of attack by 40%.
  
• From 08:00 to 10:00 morning protection penalties are gradually decreased from 40% to 0% (at the rate of 1% every 3 minutes).
  
• From 22:00 to midnight night protection penalties are increased from 0% to 40% in the same manner.
  
• During these periods, the damage to buildings and fortifications will be reduced by the same value.
  
• During these periods, the growth of Barons’ power to claim a sieged city will be reduced by the same value.
  
• The protection is in effect for any attack against players: Assault, Siege, Plunder and Scout.
  
• The protection only matters for player-owned cities. Dungeons and lawless cities will not get any protection.
  
• The protection is counted in servertime.
