I will try adding flags though I am on a very populated Island and may not be able to add any
Edit.
So, I am unable to place more flags due to ally and a company that has aggressively stolen claims throughout most of the island.
Currently on my claim with has less than 10 flags it is showing -2 total flags and a contest timer of 4 days. W have gone as far as replacing most of the flags that we can though all it achieved was make our number go from -1 to -2.
Has anyone come up with a fix for this?
You can out run them in every ship with the correct sails even with 75% load weight.
We have a transport galleon and brig that have no cannons and never have issues. Might take a volley of shots but that is all.
