I`m creating a strategic game which will run on the internet browser with PHP. The game has a little problem with new players.

When new players join the game they have 3 days of protection from other players attacking them, but in those 3 days they can not catch up with others, who are playing that game since much longer.

Please suggest how I could solve this. I had couple of ideas like making protection time longer, but if I do that, players will not be able to progress without attacking (gaining more resources for faster progress).

When new players join my strategy game, they have 3 days of protection from other players attacking them, but that's not enough time to catch up to players who have been playing for longer.

How can I solve this?

I thought of extending the protection time, but if I do that, players will not be able to progress without attacking (gaining more resources for faster progress).

The game is browser-based with a PHP back-end.
