Who cares…
Some company’s own multiple under the same name.
Again what is it you think is wrong?
You make no sense.
Just typing extra … means nothing to me.
They are the same company or they are 2 diff company’s or they are 2 company’s 1 with 5 members 1 with 100 members defending their factions territories.
owning multiple territories under the same name is fine, as then the territories can be decced and force the company to either choose to make sure one gets saved or spread thin and chance losing both. This strategy allows a company to not care about war times and allows them to be sure they can bring their “A” team to defend every war. I don’t understand how you don’t see the potential problem here. So I will spell it out in worst case scenario.
Company A has a strong group of 50 players. They then take control of literally every territory on the map with companies b,c ,d ,e ,f, g ect… staggering the war times of each shell company that is run by alternate characters of the 50 main people. This company monopolizes the server in this way and either drives every other player off the server or forces those that stay of opposing factions to have to play the game in a way that is less then ideal.
In before the “just get gud” comments flow 
Meanwhile the game is set up for us to have to serve these pricks taxes.

All company’s of the same faction should coordinate with each other as to not pick overlapping times.
Whether if it was the same name or not they still can chose times to not overlap. What part of that do you not understand? They see a war is at 8 tomorrow so they don’t chose 8 or 8 30. It’s common sense for all companies in the same faction.
Oh gawd you edited. You keep thinking we have to chose from a limited window of times. Even if you decced 4 of my territories in 1 hour we could all chose staggered times so the same 50 best players could be in each war. You do not need shell companies. You can just talk or pay attention to other companies or wars scheduled
you dont understand how wars work… companys have to set their siege window when theyre made, not after their territory is decced on.
I’m done. I don’t even know how to explain to you
Same company, shell company, different companies. I fail to see any issue with this. My server has managed to get every major company into your new discord and we work great together. You fight one of us you fight all of us. Wars are the best of the best that we have to offer, times are staggered other factions do the same thing.
Sounds like you are upset that you cannot split their army which indicates you cannot straight up beat them. Nothing to worry about. Tides change over time, people come, go, switch sides all the time. Stuff will go back and fourth over time. Easy come easy go
I think I understand the issue the OP is raising. War windows are company specific and not territory specific. So if you form a company you have to select your war window once and the same war window applies to all the territories your company owns.
If your company owns 10 territories, it won’t be possible for your company to defend multiple wars declared at same time because the same war window applies to all of wars declared. AGS has said this is one of safeguards in place to prevent one super sweaty company from owning all territories on the map.
You can bypass this safeguard by creating dummy companies. So lets say you have exactly 50 very strong players and you want to dominate the map. You create the original company with just 40 members. Then 5 of the 50 form a dummy company and another 5 start a second dummy company. So now the 50 players have 3 companies. This allows a group of just 50 players to set three different war windows and control basically the whole map without having to worry about war times colliding.
This is definitely bypassing what AGS intended as a control to limit one company’s power. I don’t know if AGS would consider this an exploit and take action though.

Governors are the best trolls of all
Now I finally understood the case. Jesus Christ, that one was hard to decipher.
Also, wtf is “decced”.
I have no idea how AGS can solve this issue.
There isn’t really a fix for this that wouldn’t be worse than the problems it’s fixing. Any fix would be something that punishes most of the playerbase for something a hand full are doing.
Maybe limiting the number of wars someone can participate in a week?
If your company owns a territory, there should be no limit to how many times the company members can sign up to defend their territory if attacked obviously.
But what if you can only sign up for 3 or 5 wars every week apart from depending your home territory. This could also make wars more accessible to everyone.
Look, I see no problem if they limit the number of players outside the company to help in a war, like, if a company do not have at least 30 players to fight in a war, why have the power to hold an area.
Also, you can just jump from a company to another, so it will not help. Place a delay on leave/join a company is too punishing to the players also. The only way I see now is to make it against the rules and punishable.

I agree the best and simplest solution is for AGS to take action - can’t be difficult for them to check if a group of people are doing this.
Exactly what I am saying about punishing everyone for something a few are doing. I get a war participation restrictions because some other guys are gaming the system.
You are right. The only solution I like is AGS taking reports of cheating/TOS violations seriously and taking actions that only affect the people who are gaming the system.
This is probably a fringe issue in any case. Many other problems in the game right now that needs to be addressed.

@PaganS Depends on the server. The server I am on our entire Faction plays as one company. The people for the 50v50 war are the top 50 who sign up. 40+ of the spots are basically auto filled by the same core team. The core team is fed gear, attribute food, potions, you name it. All zones are set for different times. We help the major companies get a zone (we all push but only have the company we want to have the territory declare war). We are also the smallest population on the server faction wise but own over 1/2 of the map. Our key zones we have held since launch day. For us it is Purley a quality over quantity mentally. Each server is going to be different. Our company discord has a seperate leadership for the entire faction made up of all the major company leaders and 2 Consoles form each major company who as a group decide the next move.
Totally unique situation, every server is different. But we saw that we were the minority and decided to become the largest company on the server regardless of what tags you have on. The company discord is used by everyone. United we stand.
I don’t understand what was hard to decipher but thankfully someone who actually knows how wars work in this game chimed in… I grew tired of people who probably have never participated in any wars chiming in and arguing saying they were fine… the guy asking what decced was gave me a chuckle… clearly someone who’s never warred. All I would say at this point is if you don’t know how wars work then maybe don’t involve yourself in a conversation about wars and siege window manipulation.
