Reservation Tool
What is the Reservation Tool?
The reservation tool was a player-driven development that was introduced into the game in December 2012. It allows members of an alliance to ‘claim’ a city, showing their alliance-mates (and the members of alliances that have access to your alliance's reservations*) that they have the intention of conquering the city.
Please note that reserving a city does not prevent other players (even those from your alliance) from conquering said city. It only shows them that you are planning on taking it.
(*)This doesn't have to be alliances that you are pacted with.
How to reserve
Reserving a city really couldn't be easier.
- Click on the city that you wish to reserve.
- Click 'info' when the wheel opens.
- Click on 'Reserve'.
- Congratulations, you have now reserved a city.
Viewing Reservations
If you click on "Alliance' in the botton menu bar, you will see a tab called 'Reservations'.
Click on it and you will be presented with a window that looks like this:
From here, you are able to see your reservation along with those of your alliance mates and members of any alliances that have shared their reservations with your's.
A few more details
A reservation is valid for a period of 7 days, then it expires. You can cancel it at anytime by hitting the little x towards the right of the reservation.
Some members of your alliance may have the ability to manage reservations, meaning that they too can cancel your reservation.
