Here is a simple fix to discontinuing 35v35 and 45v45 wars...
OK so 35 and 45 wars will soon be no more, and clashers are justifiably upset with this: if 35 people want to war, either 5 will have to be left out to get the number to 30, or else 5 more will have to be included to get the number to 40.
Here is a simple fix to this problem: allow the leadership to designate 40 bases to go to war by allowing 5 clan members to appear twice in the war lineup! Coding this up should be quite straightforward. The (co-)leader starting war search will select the players that are to be included twice, and apart from that the war would be no different than what we know now.
So, say my base is included twice. I should then have the ability to use different war bases for the two bases (this is the main coding difficulty, as I see it), if I so wish, and of course I should have to pay for the cost of 4 war armies, but also get the loot bonus corresponding to the 4 bases I hit.
I cannot think of any way this can be exploited. Sure, some clan members will have to put in the time to do 4 attacks, but I know for a fact that many people would actually love that.
What do you think?
