• Clan War shared chat so warring clans can have friendly chatter/trash talk during war.

Can't wait to get our first war day under way tomorrow!

---

+1 for these also
Or for cc troops the ability to only accept pre-approved troops, ex. only accept dragons.

- We want Save As Clan War Map option in Village Edit Mode ASAP so we can Save one map as Clan War Map and we don't have to switch back and forth. This is VERY IMPORTANT

Misguided people are doing the wrong things in Clan Wars and there's no way to educate people, nor is there a way to see who's the one donating barbarians to war bases.

The new clan war mode basically requires real clan info and real clan messages. Make the messages and clan info pop out when tapped so that it's possible to include actual amount of text. As it is right now the text limit + message limit destroys my ability to make important clan messages to tell what our overall goal and plan is in the war.

An addition of a war FAQ written by the leader at the start would be helpful.

---

+1 for longer Clan descriptions, clan chat messages, leader messages, and a reduced cooldown on clan messages by at least half.

We have donation battles so leaving constantly isn't a solution. Leaders & Co shouldn't get to decide how the rest of the members in a clan play the game.

+1 for a check box that toggles involvement in Clan Wars, default is yes.

So we'll be fighting with 43 attackers but we have 3 people sitting out!!

---

+1 For some sort of queue where when you leave a clan you can be replaced if there are eligible members of the clan spectating but not including members that have joined after a war has started.


My Idea:

For cases when you are fighting another clan with a few spectators have more than the rounded down to 5 number of members. Change it so that only the difference of members is left out. Example:

Clan A (47 members) vs Clan B (49 members)

Previously it would be 45 vs 45 and 2 members from A and 4 members from B would be left out. Using the new system it would be come a 47 vs 47 clan war and only 2 member from B would be left out. This was less people would be left out of Clan Wars (2 vs 6 players left out). This would happen after the 45 vs 45 match up has happened so that clans still have many match making options.

Need to be able to see who has donated low level troops such as goblins etc to a clan wars donation and to be able to dump these unwanted troll troops

Agree with everyone's feedback about war base castle's donation/ request issue.

At least, I 'd like that player has control over when to request (just like in normal clash of clans).

Right now, I'm back from work, my clan is already in a preparation phase of clan war and my castle is already filled with packs of lvl 2 barbarians and lvl 3 archers while everyone else's castles have wizards and witches and dragons... And I'm too tired to find out who the culprit was...

What if someone for example donates troops people don't want, there's no way to dump the troops and get new ones

Edit: see it's been noticed already.. Still would appreciate some info on it :)

Anything official on the troll troop donations yet?

Please, we need this ASAP. In our clan someone was donating troops without no one asking.
And also, please, give us the option to drop the war CC, to prevent this.

Thanks!

RiD.-

Is there a fix coming out for the th4 and not being able to donate troops?

Good update overall, certainly got our clan talking. (Though we got matched with a top 100 clan, scary! :p)

But we definitely need to see who donated troops, get xp for donating and be able to dump war cc during prep day!

This is because with the current system it would be too easy for some troll to donate wall breakers (or something else unwanted) to everyone anomalously!

The last 6 members of clan wars in my clan cant get donate or request troops.

But i do think a few things could also improve with clan wars....


1) 24 hour preparation before we go to war is no good !
- When we hit that war button we are ready and want to fight.. Not wait 24 hours and fight tomorrow.


2) Army building should be done in the war village !
- if you use high end troops, heroe and spells, then allready you have to wait 3 hours to fight.. Now you add to that another 3 hours for your war army and result is that you can actually only manage to do 1 regular battle before the timer kicks you off the game for being on in 6 hours..
- it would be extremely more fun if you could do your war fight while waiting for your regular troops to build.. Rather than now doubeling the wait time before going to battle.


3) Prizes should be more exclusive !
- Getting loot is allways great, and love that this can add some more loot into the game.. But think that something more exclusive would really kick of the clan wars much better than "just" loot.. And not all need loot, somevplayers are actually maxed out allready :-)


------------

Suguestions to maybe improve this...


1) Each player clicks "ready for war" when ready to join a clan war..
- This puts the player on the clans war map, makes him ready to build his army (troops, heroes, spells), and able to start recieving cc troops for his war village.
- at this time the screanshot of his war village was also taken.

As more and more players do this, they apear on the clans war map.. And when clan leader/co-leader think we have enough for a war, they can then hit the "go to war" button and as soon as a match is found the war can begin !

This makes for more swift war and also eliminates going to war with inactive players as only the players joined the war map will ofcause partisipate.



2) Army build - This was kinda self explained.. But think the war village should be separated from normal village..
So it has its own seperate hero sleep.. Spells for war are build in war village.. And troops for war are made there too..
- one neat feature could also be that army troops/spells where instant.. You pay their elexir cost ofcause, and then they are ready to go !
- in anny case really no need to add more waiting time to the normal game with both having to wait for normal troops, then war troops from same baracks.. This will instead give us something new to do while waiting :-)



3) Prizes.. Instead of "just" the standart loot, it really would make war something special if there where also special prizes involved.. For one thing at least some gems for those that don't need the loot.. But was also thinking about something that could maybe be a clan specific price that got attached to the clan and not the player.. For instance :

- Clan boosts... Could be 24-48 hour boost of recourses production, Hero sleep, spells, etc..
Stuck to the clan so the boost for all players in the winning clan, as long as you are inside the clan..

- Permanent boost.. A 1-2% permanent boost is added to the clan for each war winn.. Again, can be on recourses, troops build time, hero sleep, etc... Now this is not a huge boost, but being permanent it adds up the more wars the clan winns.

- A 24 hour fedex... This turns your cc into your own local fedex, exchanging anny recourse into another recourse or even gems (at a give rate) in that time... (for those that has no use for elexir for instance).

Well.. Just examples.. But you get the picture i guess ;-)

hey man, nice long post, however, I cannot agree. Reason is, clan wars is not the main theme of this game, it's an added extra. I do not think clan wars should replace what we've been playing with up until now. Therefore, I'll completely disregard points 2 and 3. Answering your first point: 24h is ok. as we'll be battling between different time zones around the globe, it's a must for clans and players individually to get prepared.
Also I think one must refrain from trying to win a clan war all by one self...it's going to be a team effort. I'm a clan leader, and I know it will not be so that everyone thinks down the same lines at the same time. A 'ready for battle' button will not help you there. Either SC changes the concept so the leader can pick, who'll take part in the next clan war, or it stands as it is and you'll have to look for a clan that is closer to your aproach on this. Considering that SC has put an enormous amount of time and effort into this upgrade, makes me assume, they've thought this point through too and will not change the concept at it's core ideas.
TS

Hey Guys, is there a allrdy a fix or a Trick to fix the Spectator Bug? My whole Clan are stuck we cant Start the Matchmaking..

Anything on the maintenance? It should have started by now, the "morning" is over...

This thread is already so long, I really could not read through all of it.
Of what I did not miss, and apart from obvious server overflow, I think it boils down to three points:

-) war base lay out needs it's own edit mode, and everyone will love a couple of save slots for both modes.
-) clan messages too short and too long time between for sensible coordination before and during a war
-) cc troops, no donation possible on bottom of the list (bug?!),and I'd like to choose what troop I'll alow into my war cc

Please address these issues.

Thx for the awsome update, once things are flowing you'll get so much applause you'll be blushing all day long.

Have Fun
TS

its been more than a day since the update now and my clan is still in spectator mode, we should be in war day now.....

we were told by Marika yesterday to expect a maintenance this morning and now its the afternoon already and still no maintenance!

do supercell ever keep their word?

why is it so hard to keep the community updated, its now the afternoon and still no word, Ill fell much better once i know what to expect, rather than being kept in the dark frustrated.

On the iPhone 4s, the Clan Description is a bit too small, so that the new buttons on the right overlap the text that is written :

http://up.picr.de/17917923ud.png

Add a scouting notes section to each base. This would enable leaders or Co's to assign people to a certain base or note the best attack strategy for the base, etc.

So I just reached Th9. Got my xbows building. 5 more days until they are ready. I noticed when I look at my war base that they are there. My question is will I have these when I go to war? Need to know if I should incorporate them into my base or not. Thanks.

hi supercell,

we are about to head out to war and im excited. highly anticipated for this.

i havent read the whole thread so there might be repetitions here but there a few things i noticed could make the feature better:

1. being able to save multiple layouts would allow players to farm without worrying about having to change their entire layout before prep day ending and changing it back after the war ends again. by having a 'clan war layout' saved this can give less active members an opportunity to prepare in advance. for example a few of my clanmates arent as active and their farming layout will cost us some losses during war (preferrably i dont want to kick them).

2. being able to choose the specifically the clan members who will participate in war. there will be clans with a few lower leveled players who will be dead weight during war time. this can also alleviate the need to kick inactive players. (eg. currently my clan is forced to make a second clan so the stronger players can fight without the weight of weaker members during war). id prefer having our clan war record in our main clan than a shelved one.

3. being able to dump war base clan castle troops during prep day. some members will inevitably donate the wrong troops which will stick with their war base defense (eg. lvl 1 archers) which will potentially cost them the defence win.

other than that i give you guys props for this update. youve really thought this thing out. good work supercell ;)

We started a war shortly after release, entire clan still in spectator mode. I know others have this same issue, just giving feedback that we are still in that mode. Hoping to hear what the plan is, whether we should expect any change for this war.

The moment of truth!

Is clan wars getting fixed or being PULLED OUT?!?!!?

Maintenance break 10.4.2014 (server improvements)

Hi!

Maintenance break coming soon :) This will help with lag and other issues that people might have been experiencing after yesterday's mega giga update, the Clan Wars!

---

Thanks Marika! Will this fix the people who are stuck in spectator mode?

Great update, and I'm sure its just because its new and we don't really know what we are doing...but the whole thing is seeming to take a lot of time to manage!

I have the following suggestions:

1. Please allow people within a clan to "opt in/out" of a war so that only the people who want to participate in a war do so... not everyone is available all of the time due to RL commitments...

2. Please allow us to be able to dismiss and replace troops from the clan castle, or at least see who donated what so that we can address trolling or misguided issues..:rolleyes:

3. Please show the recommended targets during preparation day so that people can see who they are meant to be matched with.. yes i realise they are likely to be the same number in the opposing clan's war map but it would be good to make sure..

4. Please give us a way to "lock in" the war base at some point during the preparation day without having to wait for the clock to go to zero (even better, in addition to this would be to have saved bases in edit mode so that they are simple to switch over!). This helps with time zone issues for an international clan as its almost impossible to hit the search war button when everyone is awake...

5. Please give us additional communication tools other than clan chat. with an international clan, instructions, and comments in chat are too easily missed due to time zones and people who chat A LOT! Leader messages are too short, and the cool down period is way too long. we are having to rely on outside ways to communicate, such as glassboard etc and it can be difficult to get all clan members to register...

Other than that I think that this feature will add a great new dimension to a fabulous game ... keep up the great work :)

I hope war base picks the changed map at the last minute of preperation day' since I son have a shield' and I'm not getting one yet. So I'll be changing it to trophy base at the last moment of preperation day. Its really annoying though. Would be nice if there is feature in war base like capture my `now` village layout and use it as war base, don't bother me if I change it to farm base again during prep day. Also somebody donated me a healer, f#$k how will I dumb those. Didn't see anything about these in FAQs.

http://imgur.com/viKUakE

We've only donated this player 22 units of troops (by 2 different persons), but the donation bar tells that the cc is already full and cannot receive any troops now.
At least 2 of my clanmates have this kind of bug, is it possible to fix them before the war day?

If the clan is in queue to be matched with 40 players, what happens if a new member joins the clan? will the person who is now 41st be spectator or will the newcomer be?

Stated another way: is the roster of who's eligible for war computed when war is requested or when war is matched?

I am a Leader of i mobile2 but i m not able to participate in Clan War

Can u change troops that are in your CC during Preperation day. noobs havent waited and chucked allsorts into clans cc before anyone got chance to put requests up!

Also, can you use your cc whilst attacking in clan wars??

Thanks

On a separate note having to redesign your base ready for the end of prep day at 03:00 is a pain, perhaps a button to press once youve set it up to save it whilst your online so you can then return it too Farming/Hybrid etc would help! Otherwise your leaving your clan wars design base up to attack in multiplayer.

Nice work guys!

just one thing: clans should automatically become "invite only" for the duration of the war if it is open to everyone.

why?

we just sent one of our members to the opposing clan and he's telling us where all the traps and tesla's are lol :)

!!!!!!!LOL!!!!!!!

I disagree though, it is upto the clan to decide that.

Anyway... LOOL.

Lol it is their fault, make it anyone can join if they want.

My clan was able to start a war before the maintenance break, though we were in spectator mode for several hours

I've been anticipating this maintenance more than the update:rolleyes:

First off, thank you supercell for an awesome update! I have been reading a lot of complaints about the inability to dump war base CC troops (on the forums and within my own clan chat) and think I have a reasonable solution. I think rather than dump troops, it would be nice if you could allow certain troops to be donated to you war base CC and disallow others. For instance, if you grey out giants, wallbreakers, goblins, golems, and balloons... then no one could drop them in your CC. It would be an easy way to guide your clan mates into donating the proper troops with little fuss.

I have a clan of 50 and we're warring a clan of 47... But only 27 from each side were chosen to war. Doesn't seem right to me. Apologies if this has been mentioned in this thread but I don't have time to leaf through 64 pages

Great idea, but I would hope you could change this on the fly. For instance a lvl 5 cc can hold 30 troops. If you wanted only wizards then 2 archers--allowing both wizards and archers up front could fetch you 30 archers...

But yes, our clan also suffers from clan castle trolling. several of our members have 5 balloons. :P

I think each player should have the ability to mark or assign their two prospective attacks to the enemy clan. This way, people could decide who they wanted to attack and it would be easily visible for clanmates to see who's attacking who.

Oh! +1

Our clan tried several ways of sharing a doc, even google drive. Not very easy to coordinate with 50 anonymous people. ended up resorting to a glassboard status post--which is ill suited for that at best. :) This is a simple and elegant solution to that issue!

I get it to make the heroes or a defense at the last level to be active in the battle but this is a HUGE advantage on his side and unfair towards others.

Curious as to what, if anything they will do about this. That is a pretty big advantage if the bases were originally matched up pretty evenly. This will also be an issue when going up against gemmers who will start war then gem up their defences after matchmaking. Should be interesting.

THIS

...is one of the best recommendations I've heard so far. Agree with everything. May I add -

4.a - Show clearly on the enemy map which bases have been locked, so we don't waste our time scouting bases / recommending bases for clannies which are still due to change...

6. - Implement a system like a communal donation camp, infinite or very large in capacity (opportunity for shiny new graphic, preferably positioned front & centre on the friendly war map) into which we can donate, and the recipient can pick what they want from inside. Remaining troops would expire when the countdown reaches 0. Ideally this would be the way to go in the single player game as well (unused troops would expire after X days).

Very convenient idea,,,save lots of time.

I tried to search for this and couldn't find a similar topic, but apologies if it has been brought up before.

During the preparation phase for a clan war, donates made don't count towards the 'friend in need' achievement, or the donate tally that shows up in the clan and league screens. Is this meant to happen? Or should there be a seperate achievement for this in clan wars in the future?

Sorry, this is the *best* possible way to deal with that "issue". Look at a tower that's being initially built. it's referred to as "lvl 1 ____". So in the game logic, the level before level 1 is ... level 1.

Would you rather have a hole in your war base when you build your first one?

This helps with time zone issues for an international clan as its almost impossible to hit the search war button when everyone is awake...

5. Please give us additional communication tools other than clan chat. with an international clan, instructions, and comments in chat are too easily missed due to time zones and people who chat A LOT! Leader messages are too short, and the cool down period is way too long. we are having to rely on outside ways to communicate, such as glassboard etc and it can be difficult to get all clan members to register...

Other than that I think that this feature will add a great new dimension to a fabulous game ... keep up the great work :)

All great suggestions.

We still have people who should be taking part not taking part. What is the fix?

Haven't actually begun Battle day yet, so may add more. Would like to see the following made available.

1) Add the feature for multiple base designs (max 4 designs) to allow easy switching back and forth whether farming or trophy hunting

2) Need the ability to dump CW Clan Castle during preparation day. Had some errant troops put into CC and cannot change them - This is a big one

3) Shorten preparation day. 24 hours is too long. Maybe allow for all members too get bases and CC ready, and click lock in or something to this effect.

• If a member leaves after a war has started (prep day), the next member "on the bench" should take his/her place in the war. We had two hoppers leave today after matched in our first war and two long time members are stuck spectating even though we currently have 46 members. So we'll be fighting with 43 attackers but we have 3 people sitting out!!
• Ability for Leaders/Co-Leaders to "assign" or "suggest" or "mark" opponents to clan members, some sort of flag system or something. Organizing who will attack whom is proving to be near impossible.
• Clan War shared chat so warring clans can have friendly chatter/trash talk during war.

Can't wait to get our first war day under way tomorrow!

Then can play each child clanwars, no tactics needed, no skills needed...
Supercell great job, because you let this features out! :cool:

so far, I really like what SC did with this update. I have a few suggestions that I think could help tweak things, but overall, excellent job. Yes, there are reports of bugs and glitches, but there isn't much they could do about that until the update launched anyway. So thanks for an awesome update SC! here are a few ideas that may make the experience even better:

Players should be able to dump their war base cc troops. This will help if there is a griefer in the clan that decides to donate goblins.

Players should have a button on their cc that toggles between 'Combatant' and 'Spectator.' This way, they can decide before hand if they want to join a clan war or just stay in spectator mode. Clans are losing or kicking members to avoid non combatants during the war. It would be nice if we could decide if we want to play or not.

11 of our members appear as town hall 4 on the map: with a clan castle capacity of 0--so we essentially cannot donate anything to them at all. huge advantage to the other team.

It seems one of our members is filling our war castles with weak archers anyway to remove the troops?
Or better yet know who did it? Otherwise this is only get worse!! So we've lost a war before we even fired a shot due to a fifth colonist!!

Thank god (SC) for clan wars!

66 pages ... sorry if I'm too lazy to search my comments:

My leader started the war at a weird time. This results in end of preparation occuring at the same weird time. Here is what is bothering me and the possible solution:

1) At the beggining of preparation day, people got crazy donating everything and anything before we could set out request texts. I think for clan wars, people should set the accepted troops and level. Else it's just anarchy. Might be an interesting feature for regular castle too

2) Our war base is fixed at end of preparation. But I might not be available to switch precisely at that time. I'm not just talking about putting my TH inside here. I have to move my storages outside. This takes time and presence. A way to change just the war base without affecting our regular village would be nice. Lucky for me, my shield will cover preparation day so I can switch right away. But this means I cannot attack with my regular village.

Clan wars is suppose to be "only two attacks in two days", but my village is locked since the beginning of preparation day and I'm almost sure I won't attack until the war is finished (donating, preparing war attacks).

Looking forward to getting 3 stars on my 2 fights

Not sure if i'm in the right area but I just had a question that I didn't see in the FAQs. What happens if both the leader and co-leader press start war at the same time?

And ppl are gaming the system by stacking up very weak villages so we are totally outmatched with thier top players being way better then our best, should have realized this update would be this way so everyone go get u all the lvl 10 guys u can find to stack the deck

A co-leader managed to canx our war mashing random buttons. we just re-entered the matchmaking queued after groaning at him. :)

It needs a few more tweaks (requesting with cw cc etc.) but I'm just glad our clan is out of limbo 'spectator mode'.
My thanks goes to supercell for rolling out a quick maintenance that sorted out most of the bugs. :)

Hi I'm new to the forum and I don't know if anyone has said this yet but I have a suggestion for the game. It would be awesome if we could save base layouts so when we go into village editor we can easily switch between layouts we have previously had instead of having to build it by scratch every time. This would especially be useful with clan wars as most people would want to rearrange their base during preparation day. Hope this can work and I love the game, thanks!

I think it would be cool on the enemy base page (preparation day) if you could attach your screen name to a base to show that you want to attack that one. That would give less confusion in the clan chat about who is attacking who and resulting in a more structured plan of attack. Because I'm pretty sure people's feeds are blowing up at the moment.

Clan wars still isnt fixed. 17/46 of my members are showing that they are sitting out in the clan war when both clans have 46 members. The search was for a 45 vs 45 war... Now 17 people are being sat out. Not cool SC... Not cool

oh wow, so it should show up that match in progress and the cancellation screen. Ok. I was just wondering about that. Thanks for responding.

I totally disagree with number 1. It's up to the leaders to control their clan members. If you can't control your members then you should take the penalty of possibly having a weak CC defensive army.

We had none of that in my clan. Our leaders sent out messages hours ahead of time telling people to NOT donate a thing until told to do so, they sent even more messages after war was declared reminding people to NOT donate. Then we started talking strategy and deciding on who will attack who and what people wanted in their CC for defense. Then we started cooking and donating.

With number 2 as many have said, and SC has acknowledged, a way to save bases to easily swap between or set one to be the war base needs to be implemented. Hopefully, SC can make that happen sooner than later.

I'm sure these suggestions are buried in the many pages of this thread, but I'll reiterate.

• Some means by which to dispose of War Clan Castle troops that have been donated
• Ability to create, and then "Save" a war base at any point during the Preparation day
• Reduction in the cooldown for Clan Mail, we co-leaders are trying to herd cats here, and that mail is the easiest way to reach all clan members

Update is great! :)

Some of our enemies clearly have higher filled storages than some of the others...is there any benefit to attacking those with more loot or is the bonus the same regardless of their loot level?

I like this n very happy

thanks much supercell ;)

Not sure why I haven't received the Gem box, is it bugged or something?

That might work for the most hardcore (biggest lo*ers) clans but for most other casual clans that can't spend 8 straight hours of real life on a tablet its just not practical. We had multiple messages sent out as well but some bodies little brother steals an iPad for 5 min and boom wbs galore. Maybe not a filter or cc dump but at the least a report for who donated what is sorely needed (which has been requested for months in our regular village too its nice to know who gave you the drag or pekka while u weren't loking)

I just do not like that it takes so long.

I wish I could give good feedback on clan wars but I'm in a clan that got f'ed real hard.

1. Our clan has 30 members but only 11 are able to receive troops for war. All 30 are on the war map and they almost all have an incorrect townhall.

2. The clan we are fighting somehow got out of this unscathed. They were all able to receive donations and seem unaffected.

3. I wish there was a forfeit button at this point. I would take a hit just to get rid of this garbage war and try another.

We did the same, sending out messages, but not everyone listens. And we have a great clan with almost 100% great players but it only takes one bad apple, and its not always apparent who that is.

While I'm not suggesting that we implement #1, I dont see why youre against it. I dont find your reason very valid as there isnt a good way for leaders to 'control' their clan at present. Sure you can say dont donate, but that doesnt prevent that bad apple from doing so. My main issue with the current system is that i have no idea who donated goblins to someone, and thus have no way of enforcing our rules. Those goblins go out, i say stop, and nothing comes of it. That player might like trolling us, i have no idea. We have random players in our clan that some of us dont know in person, and I would have to guess that 90% of clans are not static, meaning new players are coming and going as we try to find our way to a static 50 solid players. In our case, all of our top players got amazing troops right away, but as we built more for the lower players, a few people screwed up some of the lower bases donations.

So good for you, you have a 100% solid clan, but i feel like i can speak for most of the non-forum users, and many of the forums users alike, when i say that anything that will simplify clan coordination and individual player satisfaction should get a thumbs up. This would accomplish both of those as previously uncoordinated clans would have a system in place to 'force' coordination, and nobody gets troops they dont want. Most of us don't have our clans nailed down all the way as you seem to. It's a long and arduous process in some case...

---

Ok, with all of that said, i do have an intermediate solution to this issue that even you might like as it doesn't ruin the advantage you seem to want to hold on to because you are coordinated. Namely, when i look at an ally war base and see goblins in it, add a button that lets me view who gave which troops. At least this way the leaders can easily discern those bad apples and reprimand or kick them. Or, as many others have suggested, let us dump our war base troops.

About 75% of the time when i click on the clan wars map my app crashes. Even after this recent maintenance break it still crashes. I'm not sure if its my Iphone that is the problem or COC. hope i can get this problem resolved

I thought the maint was supposed to fix people who show they can't participate but they should be able to?

They also can't request troops. Will they be able to participate in the end? Please SC please shed light upon us with a fix.

It is a major bug and needs fixing before 8PM UK time when the first battle days will be starting.

If they can't participate then I seriously think this needs fixing. We are going to war with 11 members down! Furthermore, those 11 could be classed as our best!

I've never complained but this has truly disappointed me.

I do think a report would be a good idea in order to help control the people. That way if there are repeat offenders they can be dealt with.

This is a team effort. Clans need to control their people that's why I will always disagree with the ability to dump a cc if somebody has a foolish member. You make them understand the rules or get rid of them. It's that simple.

I totally agree with a report being needed to help deal with the repeat offenders.

I actually do the like the idea of allowing only the leader to dump a cc. However, there should be a limit on how many can be dumped per war based on the size of the war. For example if you actually get a 50v50 match maybe you get to dump 5 cc's.

In my clan's case we're in a 25x25. So maybe we get to dump two. That way you can clean up some of the mess but not all of the mess if you have a dipstick throwing gobbies around.

My clan is having a problem, we are in a 40v40, we have more than 40 people in our clan. So only 40 of us made it in, but around 30 people have the swords around there names, and we have 40 people on the war map, but some including me are experiencing the th 5 problem where we can't be donated too, I believe I'm in the war, but I will not have any troops donated to me.

This is probably not gonna happen but hey its a worth a shot:) Just wanted to ask if SC will ever add something for us to remove the troops in our cc for CW. Some idiot in our clan donated Giants and Hogs to mostly everyone in our clan for CW. Or we could have it that we can only request for troops in CW by ourselves. Hopefully SC sees is:)

There is no way to tell who donates what so how can you control them. I can't kick a bad donator. If someone is being a great member in any and every way but being a jackars about CW donates I would have no idea who to accuse.

I also warned the whole clan probably over 10 times not to donate anything and clan mails and still there were bad donations and I can't boot or do anything about it without proper tools. In a 50 person clan someone is going to miss the message or not catch on as fast. The game should work for the majority not just the adult only clans who all speak the same language and are on at the same times.

We have the same problem, 3 of our players (me also) are showed on a war map with TH lvl 1 without possibility of donation. ( I have normally TH lvl 9). How should we solve this problem?

Thanks guys
Looking forward to war day:P

DONATION LOGS!!!!
As a Co Leader I have 0 ability to monitor or control clan members, we're 50 and there are bad donation all over the place!
I can't tell who was this!
Add one of the following, either donation log, or an option to empty the clan castle while still in preparation day!
How come you didn't think of it by yourself? ARGH!

So far so good on our Prep Day. The right bases were loaded to War Map for a 40 v 40 match. Matchmaking was short. We were able to donate to all our clan mates, and able to scout opponents.
I had more fun on Prep Day than I've had in a while, just chatting with clan mates, planning attacks, etc.
Hope the War Day goes well, I'll definitely be patient if there are problems - I haven't paid a cent for this game.
But so far, love what I see!
Always some potential tweaks:
Limiting who will participate manually, so we could do a 15 v 15 on a Tuesday afternoon or something.
Seeing who donated what, so we can kick clan mates that are ignorant and donating wall breakers and giants after they've been warned.

don't have time to read all 7000 posts..

I would like to see the following implemented.

1. A save layout feature. preferably 3-5 or so save slots. I am a fan of the editor, but a save slot would free up a lot time.

2. A CC request just that emulates the 'Donation Method' ...
eg; so if I want a Dragon, and 5 Minions; I click the Dragon icon in my request; then it "reserves" a slot for a dragon to be placed in my Clan-War's CC *with the appropriate housing space*. and no other troops...then I click on the Minion icon, and it 'reserves' 5 slots for Minions.. I can request the levels in the message for ideal donation level.

I think a method like this would avoid the unwanted troops being donated. Right now we have no option to 'fix mistaken troop donations' during Prep Day.. (I think its critical to get troops you WANT in the CC to suit your base layout best)

Its a little frustrating that we currently have some un-requested troops... that we cannot seem to be able to re-request for the actual ones that we DO want for our War-Base's CC. I think a method such as the 'Donation Method' described, would only allow for the requested troops that we actually want. this I feel would be a better option for getting the requested troops we want.. (with out an option to try to re-request)

In addition, I think the ability to be able to change the CC troops available during Prep day.. having them be locked on War day is fine, but we should be able to 'edit' them until the prep day ends.

Thank you for starting the Clan wars! its a welcome addition to Clash!

maybe know who donated troops? so leader coleader can take action to keep his mates back on track

or maybe put a BANK troops

where all the troops donated is filled in there and each member select the troops they want.... at the end, troops left are converted into elixir available to the ennemy to grab (it add to the current loot that can be taken from each base)

what do you think?

Thank you for the remarkable update. This truly will revolutionize the way Clash is played.

It would help out and calm people down if after the war was started when new people join the clan if the "clan members" view was changed to "visitors" view when viewing someone's base on the clan. Clan mates are freaking out about spy's. Im telling them right now to move all their traps and tesla to a corner until prep is over

I dont understand why i was put in the spectator mode:mad:.. I'm a very active player in the game and i never change clans..
I've been in the same clan since day one.. and some of the players who are inactive for a while now are part of the clan wars.. with their farming bases :confused:..

Suggestions for the Clan Wars follow-up update (because I am sure that was planned even before the release)


1) A lock-in button or save layout feature. Even if I could simply "lock-in" my base when it was ready, I'd be happy. I can deal with making a transformer base - but it will be a hassle to switch back and forth in conjunction with the timer for preparation day running out

2) A donation log for clan leaders or some sort of indicator for clan war donations - this way leaders can manage better

3) A clan war specific chat. When i switch over to my clan war, it pulls up a completely separate chat. This, as a clan leader, I can reserve for coordinating the clan war. That way I can chat away on the "regular" chat and save my preparation and planning stuff for the war chat. This would make coordinating a war much simpler

My clan is in a 30vs30 war and our entire clan is spectating. There are literally no town halls that show up on our side and the other clan has 30 town halls that are visible. This isn't going to be much of a war. Is there anything we can do to fix this?

See here http://forum.supercell.net/showthrea...ed-to-be-added

Some bugs still happening. My CC is at l6 so has 35 spots. With 26 units donated into it, it shows full and nobody can donate any more.

strange.

Was one of the unlucky clans yesterday but was glad to see I could search again today! Started search for 45v45 couple hours ago, hopefully we find an opponent. Definitely not cancelling again ♥♥♥♥
