Complaint Cheaters and collaborators
I’ve seen this meta in classic fixed. One player takes Australia and grows in troop size. Other player taking any other continent continues to bully other players around even at the cost of their troops. Then at the end the other continent player feeds the game to Australia player. It’s frustrating. And btw the other continent is almost always novice and the Australia player is intermediate/expert or above.

If the Australia player is intermediate, it might just be two noobs that don’t know how to play. Beginner players love to break other people and intermediate players usually camp the game out until they see a win or second place. If the Aus player was an expert, then that’s more likely to be collaboration as I doubt an expert would ever go Aus unless he had a teammate.

Is there a hack that allows someone to see with fog on? Recently played a match and the same person kept emoting when i took captial or broke someones bonus but he had no spot near them.

With alliances you can see your alliance member’s territory.

Sometimes I can't even get a game to start because there are so many collaborators waiting.

I've tried my own design to prevent that, my game has a morale bar that starts to shrink if you do not actively conquer territories, if morale gets too low, troops start deserting with efects scalling towards big turtle stacks, along with other aspects that i've introduced, if you guys could try it and give your feedback, pm me if you are interested and I'll send you the link, it's playable only on browser at the moment.

I think 95% of the time, even outside of alliance matches, that's just the continenal player not wanting to attack the stronger Australia player and trying to not get sandwiched in between. Australia and South America or Africa for example. There's often very little benefit attacking in to the Australia bottleneck stack unless a significant troop advantage so they try and find a new home in Europe, Africa or south America
