@CG_Carrie Just an fyi...
Why can we not change/edit/move Defense squads in TW during the setup phase?
Matchmaking is done after setup to ensure your guild is accurately matched up against another guild. If you can change your defensive squads after moving into the offense phase, then it would be optimal to pull all your mods off characters and not level characters up and only do it after the attack phase has started. That encourages a different type of play, one based around faking out your opponent, and while we certainly want to offer different game experiences, it is not the intent of Territory Wars at this time.
He wasn't talking about changing mods or anything like that. He was talking about when I order my guild to place Team A in section B, and someone places their team in Section C, to give me the option to remove his team from Section C so it can be correctly placed in Section B.
Also, in regards to the question about a sandbox mode, there's a difference between required content, and voluntary content. Arena, GW, etc are all required content. You have to do these things to progress in the game (dailies, etc). For this reason, I was in full support of simming GW. It cuts down on the amount of time for required content. A sandbox mode, however, is voluntary content. Sometimes, I just want to mess around. I want to see how Character A matches up in a 1 on 1 match vs Character B, or whatever (endless possibilities of ship/toon matchups). A sandbox mode would simply be fun!
