In an effort for Alliances to provide more utility I suggest that when an alliance member gets attacked there be a page in the alliance section that denotes that one member of the alliance has engaged in combat with someone from the outside.

[Melutar]

A bulletin would be good, or at least some way to tell a member has been attacked. I like this idea.

[Vellocet]

I like the idea. An alliance page that shows if any of your members are in any active wars would be splendid.

[Corporal Aston]

I also agree with this. Good opportunity to prove that alliances are important.

[FoxFire]

I'm for this. There is no way to know if an alliance member is attack and by whom unless they tell the alliance. If such information were made public, people may will be held accountable for whom they attack.

Listing all attacks maybe tedious, but maybe they could be sorted. Or just list attacks against active players.

We could have a stats page that lists attacks - for example:

2/19/2011 15:45
FoxFire [NPO] - portal attacked - Eclipse [STA]

2/19/2011 15:00
JaneDoe [MHA] - ship raided - Bubba [-woot-]

2/19/2011 14:50
Yee-Haw! [Imperial] - wavethruster attack - Sally [TIO]

I would recommend.... well I have no idea how the game is coded so I'm just going to stay out of specifics but the game needs something in this vein.

[Corporal Aston]

Foxfire's suggestion is quite realistic. This suggestion is possible!

[Igng]

yea O was going to suggest a page where you can see attacks against your alliance (and your alliance only) with the cords to the planet hit.

[Corporal Aston]

Added! See for yourselves!

I would like to be able to know who did the attacking and who did the defending. As it stands, it only tells you who was involved, not who was the aggressor.

Well, as it stands it only shows attacks received by alliance members..;that is why it only shows Ally, and Enemy.

But you are right we need to make it more precise, what could we put?

[Iceknave]

Was it intended to show attacks on member in the alliance ONLY or was it intended to show ALL attacks incoming and outgoing?

If it's the former, then adding an explanation would be fine at the beginning on how to read each line.

If it's the latter, then change Ally to Attacker, Enemy to Defender and adjust the display accordingly along with adding in alliance tags to each player. Then include the ability to sort and/or filter by attacker, attacker alliance, defender, defender alliance, etc.

Ie
Under Fleet Attacks:
Player A (Ally) sends a fleet against Player B (Enemy)
Attacker = Player A (Alliance A)
Defender = Player B (Alliance B')

Player C (Enemy) sends a fleet against Player A (Ally)
Attacker = Player C (Alliance C)
Defender = Player A (Alliance A)

Player C (Enemy) sends a fleet against Player B (Enemy)
No report generated due to not involving an allied player.

I like Iceknave's suggestion, but a simpler approach, from a coding perspective, might be to list all the battles and just color code the attacker.

is probably the best improvement in the game, congratulations

However, I think there's a bug on the fleets attacks, it does not seem to appear (I have a case if necessary)

Well fleet attacks only appear when the attack occurs not after its finished...
