I was just wondering if this was against the rules in any way. Earlier today my alliance had a large battle with an enemy and at the last tick of our attacky's sheild she relocated leaving us to fight troops at an outpost. (which we won)

To me this seems a little absurd, not only can you have a sheild for 12 ticks but then you can relocate to buy more time; with enough oil this can just keep happening!

Yes, it's allowed and has been done many times...just catch them before their control ticks are up again or try and take out all their outposts so they can't relocate.

People often think it's nooby, but sometimes it's the only way.

And unless the defenders move their units you still get a juicy BR
