I just re-read what darian said on the reddit ama a few months ago…

they were working on somthing that would make engineering a „huge disadvantage“ (his words) at clan wars.

And they would be trying(!) to get this done in the first half of 2018.

So, if you remember the th11 update: there was a huge outcry not because of th11, but because they ended townhall sniping..

Back then they said that “this was not how it was intended to play” and that ppl could/should/would adapt.

If you combine those 2 observations, then I predict that they will introduce th12 in june and will end engineering at the same time because it is not intended to play like this.

Introduction of a new townhall seems to be a good point in time to fundamentally change the game…

with the reduced builder times, and all those events/magic items/loot bonus etc my guess is that they will also introduce builder base logic to the main base. i.e. you will be allowed to upgrade to a next townhall level *just* if special requirements are met (all buildings built, for example).

at least, that is what i hope that will happen ;)

I would like to see th12 and a requirement that you max out th11 defense before upgrading, but I doubt SC would go that far, so I’d be happy with just requiring us to build everything and unlock all troops before upgrading to th12.

some update news from darians sleepwalk posts.

Sounds very much like the minimum requirements for TH12 that a lot of people are asking for!

Or I guess I should say minimum requirements for whatever is in the update TH12 or new mode or whatever.

i like the sound of that. i always wanted that kind of indirect solution where you dont out right fix engineering but you do something(like a new mode or th) where engineering is at a disadvantage.



below is Darian:


I don't want to spoil the surprise before we officially share anything. But I will reiterate this: we HAVE been listening. We have been watching, and we've also been analyzing an insane amount of data (I cannot over exaggerate this part). Just be patient until we officially share the details of the update over the coming weeks. We don't want to give it all away at once. We're going to be sharing sneak peeks/previews/etc. piece by piece to let everyone digest it all over time and not ruin the excitement with just one big reveal.

There's a lot of stuff in this update so we want to make sure you get the chance to enjoy it as much as we do.

I added a few Darian quotes to the first post including the post that we will learn more about E in the “coming week.”

seems like another three weeks before the update drops. at least we now know about when it is.

It could just as easily be two weeks since Darian said we will be getting information over the next couple (usually 2) weeks.

That's what came on my mind as well.
