Keep in mind the 24 hour rule applies to all participants.

54. Raiding is allowed (but not if the player of the stallion is away). Raiding can not occur in a thread that hasn't been active in 2+ weeks or in threads that have been closed. Failure to follow these rules can lead to you no longer being able to raid with your characters. Powerplay is allowed here, too. Raiding is any/all of the following: Invading another stallions terra and force breeding with the mares (no limit, you cannot force breed a mare if the stallion is present, meaning there is a thread going on between them.) If the breeding is successful, and the stallion doesn't reply in three days saying he somehow confronted/kicked you out, the mare is yours. Going in and taking a mare- this is done by replying to a mare (is allowed if the stallion is present, aka: a thread is going on between the stallion and the mare you are trying to take) and saying you attempt to herd her towards your home.
