Joe called Tin and asked for help. Joe saw Luft approaching from his watchtower.

Well than how does tin know? My base is on the highest spot in the valley of repose, and I have a watchtower. I'd be able to see a large mass of troops from there. EDIT: Maka beat me to it. |

I thought watch towers were to watch for armies that were close to you that were attacking, not to see them as soon as they start marching.
EDIT: Just saw joe's post, how does your army know they are attacking you, and not someone else?

Ok. Just know that Tin won't be there from the very beginning.

Well, actually, since Luft's in the Wisful Wild, he's too far to be seen.
I'm just throwing guess out here- feel free to correct me- but I'm thinking it would take about 20 Days for Luft to get to Joe, and it would take Tin from 6-8. Now, since Joe started with the tower, I'm thinking that, with aid from the snowman, he'd be able to see about 10 days in advance? Just a guesstimate?

I might have sent the letter to tin prematurely, but it was inevidable, so I don't think it matters that I sent it a bit early. |

I thought it was 8-day marches? If your in the same area, about 10 if your in a close area, and 15-20 if your in a far away area (like Luftwaffle's doing). |

Last version it was always 8. I'll have to re-read the attack rules.

If that was decided somewhere, I missed it. And it doesn't say how long it takes in the attacking rules.

I remember the 15-20 days was reserved for crossing between the Pikmin 1 and 2 world, but I haven't heard anything yet about how the new travel time would be calculated.
Personally, I think the Snowman would give less then 10 days of warning, but I haven't lived on a mountain to actually know how far you could see.

Well its the snowman + watchtower, so I think a ten day warning is fair. |
