Ok, so I am hoping the Devs (@CG_Kozispoon, @CG_RyDiggs ) or someone can clarify (with real facts please).If a guild doesn't complete/attempt phase 1 during the first phase time (0-23 hours), when the second phase time opens (hours 24-47), the guild can then attempt the first territory and when they successfully pass it, they can immediately go into the next territory/(ies). So in theory, by the 6th and last phase (hours 120-144 and if each member has the time) a guild could essentially essentially do the entire TB during that last phase (6). Is that correct?? I am also assuming that once you do a combat mission, your contribution is locked no matter what phase you are in.

This could be true, but also remember that our characters refresh after the next phase begin, so you might miss out on the roster refresh to reuse some of those characters.

I dont believe this to be the case. a phase will be open for a fixed amount of time (in this case 24 hours), by not completing a phase i believe you will be locked out of finishing all phases. I'm sorry I cannot provide facts, as at this point only the Devs have those answers.

Yeah, my understanding is if you wait until phase 6, you will get no roster refreshes.

Yep. Throw absolutely everything at it. Every character only gets used once in each phase, but when you move to the next phase they are reset. No benefit at all to saving them.

I think once you get at least one star, during the next phase that territory is locked. It's only available again if you didn't get any stars.

I suppose though that say during phase three, you could dump everything into just one territory, than during four do the other, if you thought later phase stars were that much harder to get.

No, Phases can only be effected during the period they are open. Once a phase is closed you are locked in, unless you got 0 stars in which case you are still in that phase.

Are you sure that you can't go back and use future phase deployments for past territories to increase star levels?

What closes a phase and where did you read/see that?

All the YouTube videos put out by the game changers program members say the are at fixed times. They start and end at fixed times. Also the notes that the devs gave us day:

"Territory Battles are a three day Guild event consisting of six phases that are each 12 hours long. After each phase, units that were used previously are reset to be used again. The first phase begins at 6AM local time, based on the time zone of the founding Guild Leader."

That has been amended to be 24 hour periods I believe. So phases close at those set times.
