TB: Combine 2 phases every 24 hours!

SnakesOnAPlane

Open 2 of the current phases but combine as a single phase every 24 hours, for a total of 3 phases! This gives us the 3 days to finish, within the original vision of the design, but let's us pace out our play still. Don't have time to finish 1 phase in 12 hours? Now you have 24 in a row to finish the current 2 phases! Like it or love it, but a suggestion, and, to me, is a fair compromise, and can still easily allow up to 2 TBs a week.

You know what would easily allow 2 TBs a week?
Making a second map - maybe even one where you can use ds toons to battle missions.
Run them at the same time.
Allow 24 hours per phase.

Voila!

It wouldn't work the current way they implemented pretty much all of it. You would have 4 ground territories open... Deployments, Platoon dependencies and territory progression work wouldn't work.

I like the idea of just letting finish them on their own time and you advance as you complete it. Why couldn't a raid-like approach have been used here?

Because just like flash events, they want to force us to login on their terms. Otherwise yes, from a gameplay perspective, it would make much more sense to give us X days to complete it and let us progress from one phase to another on our own schedule.

Yep I'm in favor of this as well.

Absolutely.

This is actually a good idea.

If you 3* all areas of the phase you unlock the next, if not you wait 24h, sounds reasonable.

In it current state it wouldn't work. They have to redo the platoon deployment. That's the reason y every phase reset. At the end, so you can reuse those chars.
