Engineered Bases - simple idea

For War Weight calculations, any townhall has a minimum war weight of the previous townhall's maximum war weight

ie. Any Townhall 11 is considered to be at least the equivalent to a max th10 regarding war weight.

Still allows X.5 strategies, but effectively removes engineered bases, and also rewards those players that have done their wall grind (not me...).

o/

I agree. Last 3 wars I have been in of 20v20 and 2 25v25. There have been 1 or 2 th11 and th10's with bk and aq above 20 vs our th8........ then those bottom ranked th10's and th11 were attacking our top 5 get high 2 or 3 stars.

That would make too many people angry and quit! A th11 with th8/9 defences would get slaughtered against a max th10(your idea) and have to struggle to catch back up. Easier to start again! I'm sorry but engineered bases are a thing, people spent a lot of time and effort making them that way

The idea is good, but SC is getting quite some money from the engineered bases, I doubt that they will kill the golden goose

ENGINEERED bases are unfair in clan wars. They need to be adreessed. Any ideal the addresses them in any way is a good ideal to me. A simple thing like this could fix them and SC would make money with this ideal because engineered bases have gemmed them self's to where they are so they will be more like to gem them self's to fix themselves.

Or just put out some kind of statement by SC saying that a solution like this for this problem is coming soon and that engineered bases need to fix themselves or be unable to be put in wars. By denial of being in war it would cause them to fix the problem with them.

As said by many people every time the OP's idea is suggested, this is a bad idea. It would hurt the rushers/preemies who make up the vast majority of the player base.

Engineering/lopsiding is not unfair. As long as both sides have equal offensive and defensive strength then how those clans choose to distribute their strength is a matter for the clans.

Despite those who have not kept up to date with the situation saying that SC should put out a statement, there is no need for that. SC have already stated that they were looking into balancing lopsided bases. That they used the term "balancing" shows that they consider this a part of the game that just needs tweaking to prevent it being OP, not something that will be removed.

I agree (not with OP), what about rushed players ? They wont stand a chance against maxed base (th-1), i dont think this is a way yow to do such a balance

Rushing is not generally unfair, rushing with the goal to take advantage in wars, is!

May the majority of the bases are rushed, player with engineered bases are the majority in this forum, but in the game it´s the minority. But a minority who ruin the game for millions of normal player.
Most of the clashers don´t even know, this forum exist, they just noticed theese unfair matches, so they change the war frequency from allways to twice a week, to somtimes, to never. Without wars the chat will die and without chat, the clan will die, and than the payer quits.
I don´t think SC is happy about that, because it´s better to get 10$ from 100 million player, than get 100$ from 10.000.

First, if you rush th, and this update is applied to game, you have no chance to win at cw.
Second, i didnt get those 10$ against 100$ - for Supercell, it is better the option with 100$ so ...

Engineered bases - they are not such a problem at higher th balanced clans (clans with players mostly same th lvl with lowest th 8+) - you cant see engineered bases against you, because your lowest th is 7/8 so ... Engineering is against lower ths - you can destroy them, and they can destory you, thats the thing, if you have good clan, you will get tie and can hope for better enemy next time

Using strategy in a strategy game is not unfair. As long as the MM is doing what it is meant to then matches should be even, the presence of engineered bases on one side notwithstanding.

I'd be interested to see a breakdown of forum members' bases but do not think that the majority have engineered bases, rather the opposite. Either way, it's just a guess.
