Possible solution to engineered bases

I believe the way it currently works is each base has an offensive weight and a defensive weight, each on a scale of 1-100. I'm sure I'm leaving out some details, but thats the rough idea. Your war weight is a combination of the 2.

Well, stop combining them and instead just use the higher of the 2 as your war weight. That would seem to make engineered bases obsolete pretty instantly, wouldn't it?


Edit to add: If your only objection is "but I like engineered bases" or "engineering is justifiable", please understand that I consider your "objections" just further support for this idea. Engineered bases is you saying to the world "I'm not good enough to attack an equal base, so this is a way to game the system so I can play on easy mode". I find it hilarious actually.

Best solution would be to just accept it as it is and play.

Oh yay! Another one of these threads.

I have another idea. How about, we make non-engineered bases unable to re-arm traps/defenses. That would seem to make non-engineered bases obsolete pretty instantly, wouldn't it?

There is another thread just like this one on the 1page of general , like three threads above you. Why not post there ?

It's up there look, right above this one. Actually below since this bumps it. Look :)

It's not very difficult to think of ways to stop engineering. What is difficult is realizing SC doesn't want to get rid of engineering. They may want to trim the fat a little but not get rid of it totally. They wont refer to it as "engineering" they distance themselves from the issue by calling it "lopsided bases". They are addressing "lopsided bases" not "engineered bases". Now what is the definition of a lopsided base? Most can't even agree on the definition of an engineered base. How do you fix something that can't even be universally described?

Engineering is here to stay for the foreseeable future. Either accept that or move on.

Don't just accept it, embrace it! Have fun with it!

better not change it i just started an engineered account before christmas :p

Arent all bases "engineered", some are just defensively lower then others whilst others choose to be offensively stronger? I have a th10, upon my townhall upgrade i choose to upgrade only walls and troops. I bought nothing new. I get paired with th10s in war constantly. They have infernos, 3 xbows, all sorts of defense upgrades. I can 3 star them even with their infernos and they 2 star me. Essentially they are attacking my base as a th9 max, and they cant 3 star me. So i ask you....why are there not more cat videos?

Weight Tax

10 weight tax

That's the best option I've seen, because it somehow solves the issues of both worlds.

yet you and no one else has any idea how weight is taxed to begin with so pretty much solves nothing.
