War
Factions can go to war over a territory and fight to control it. This is done by increasing faction influence until the territory goes into Conflict. War can then be declared to occur at a specific date/time selected by the declaring company.

If two settlements are controlled by the same faction their settlement storages are linked. Players can transfer items from a storage linked to their current location for a coin fee. If the territories are not linked then your storage is localized.
