Last Flag Attack Clarification Inqury

It happens every round at one point or another. The US has 3 flags and the CN have 2 but, 1 changes and turns white. Is this an example of the Last Flag Attack rule? Players are still actively bombing, bullet fire from jets/choppers are coming in, and the commander is dropping arty.

Neutral flags does not count as flags because you cant spawn.
If chinese team has only one complete flag, then it is a last flag situation.

Okay.
I've noticed players do not realize that and keep attacking. It was happening tonight and DD took care of it. It usually stops when an admin +s Last flag and not until then.

I am guilty of it as I get so caught up and am doing 5 things at once. But there have been times that there were two flags, I hit arty and the opposing team has a few men drop the flag very fast. Technically the commander did nothing wrong and this needs to be considered.

But in a case like I did last night which was I played on the Island side every time I came on until late when I was on the American side I forgot that I was not allowed to bomb on last flag. I was kicked and rightfully so. Trying to do to many things at one and getting caught up is why I do this occasionally. But trusst me it isn't on purpose and I hope admins understand that Cpt CutUmUp

Hey we all make mistakes....I've put arty on carrier thinking I was US when I was actually China. I have to say that the Members here are fair when it comes to Kicking and banning. We all make mistakes and usually unless your being a real TOOL only kick you to give you a time out and to let the other players know were running a fair game.

Yes lately, last flag areas have been confusing alot of people. Example: If China has one flag and a US flag turns gray I have seen US attack because it was formally there flag or because Is neutral. Really up to interpretation by admins, however I just make it a habit to stay away with Arty or aircraft and only attack with infantry.

A gray flag is not a Chinese flag,  and therefore not last flag, And it can be attacked. no admin interpretation required.

On the other hand, If Chinese only have South base and they turn the flag gray at Beach,
South base cannot be attacked until the gray flag at Beach turns Chinese.

I think what Drangd1 means is when a flag turns gray, some players start attacking the last flag.
And yes, this has nothing to do with admins interpretation.

Last flag rule applies only when one chinese flag remains.
You CANT attack the last flag no matter how many neutral flags chinese has.
Once chinese capture a second flag and they have another flag to spawn, last flag rule does not apply anymore.

For those wondering why we use the last flag rule......
Like in boxing, when the boxer is down, you CANT continue hitting him, giving him a chance to recover.
But you can knock out the boxer the same as you can capture the last flag.

Sorry should have been more specific...I was talking about gray flag....no attacking last flag At all. What I meant by discretion was that some admins will warn you via squad talk, Big letters. or will just kick you out right...Forgive me!!!!!
