I think the biggest concern factor for this will be what the response time looks like when paired up against how much damage can be done in that time.

If the response time is long enough for significant damage to be done, it may be worthwhile to have some players stick around as a town guard during the window. It's a decision the settlements will have to make, but remember, you're not "safe" outside this window. The NPC guards can be overpowered. It's just harder.

City of Heroes had something like this in it's Architect system. You got to pick the map, set up some objectives, and if you wanted, custom design the enemy group found in the map. It brought some of the best storylines in the game, but was constantly being tweaked to find the right balance as people figured out how to exploit the system.

Hey, I just registered for your forums, but I thought I'd drop a line here too. I'd be interested in joining a group like this. Haven't quite settled all the details of my first character, but he'll be an arcanist of some sort, so I was eyeing the Ring of Crystal.
