Self Destruct button

The current beta where a tri-nap including the strongest legion against a lesser legion is a perfect example of why the Self Destruct button should be brought back. Please consider reinstating it.
Thank you

Kind of like when the legion that was ranked second got there by only attacking the bottom ranked legion for the entire game (withthe exception of 3-4 turns), and refusing to go for any of the higher ranked legions? :p

While I agree with you that it would be nice to have his feature back I don't agree with the reasons you gave. The bors brought it on themselves.

However, there are instances where it is relevant, whether it's due to lack of activity or just being ganged up on by one or more legions for a prolonged period of time, it would be nice to have the option.

I was asking for reinstatement of the SD button.
Maybe I should have left the statement as that. My bad.

And I fully with with you. Jax would have utilized it a long time ago and we may have had an acual game this beta.

*Bump*
Think we could reinstate this feature for the next game ecvej? I've played a couple of betas now where it would have been incredibly handy. Make it so any of the council could activate it, but it would require most of the active players to approve otherwise it disables. (Maybe 75%?). Set it for a 4 turn delay or something.

I never liked SD because it got over used and just became a way to deny a legion the glory of victory. Requiring players to vote for it rather than vote against it is an improvement though.

There are other things I want to change long before putting this back in (including some ideas you sent to me) but maybe one day it'll come back.

Fair enough. I'd rather see some of the others implemented first as well. Maybe put this one on the back burner for future discussion then :)

What if you could only SD with the base in the green?
