Out of Bases to Attack!

This is not a complaint or anything towards clan wars this is simply feedback given to maybe improve this situation. Battle day started around 2:30am my time, so while everyone was cheering away I was snoozing away. I wake up around 8:00am and find that all the bases TH8 & TH9 are 2 or 3 starred. I'm a new TH8 and the only players attackable are TH10's with Inferno's and xbows....seriously? Their is no way I can break one of them with their fully upgraded defenses and walls with my crappy level four troops...

The answer is there in your post. If you can't break through them, you gotta fly over them. Mass dragons can 2 star many th9 bases especially premmies

Timezones my friend timezones... It seems that clans with the majority of members in the same timezone will be pretty good now

They have level mostly level 6/7 wizards and the weakest air defense is level 6. I've attempted a dragon/wizard attack and no luck at all; got 38%.

That shows the importance of organizing everything.

Arghh my clan is just a bunch of uni mates so we know each other. They are just early birds and got up before I did to have their sure swing at it. We will for no doubt win in any case this was simply to convey a message to supercell; the message is maybe add a new feature or restriction to attacking players their own TH or they're given an opponent or two for both your attacks.

What I meant was this:

Do something like my clan did: make a list of bases everyone can attack. Your 5 strongest players attack their 5 strongest and so one.

Didn't mean to be negative towards you.

First time going to war as a clan was always gonna be a learning curve but like it has already been said orgainsiation is key to a successful war!

We have certainly made a few mistakes for example during prep day players got excited about donating troops into cc an it was a free for all end result most of the top players in our clan ended up with pretty poor defence troops! Fortunately leader an co's stepped in at that point and stopped the donating so our TH8/9 players did end up with max drags, wizards an witches in their cc's.

We then realised if we werent organised for the actual war day we could have a similar free for all with our better players attacking the weaker bases leaving our weaker players in the same situation as the OP. We came up with the idea that for our players first attack they should target the player who was at the same rank as them in the enemies clan, after this first initial attack we could then target remaining attacks to bases we failed too star or only got 1 star for. At the moment it looks like this tactic is working we are ahead of the enemy clan and interestingly their clan did the opposite to us an most of their higher players attacked our weaker players for 2/3 stars we are now watching their weaker players struggling to add any extra stars to their clans total whilst we still have 5 of our top 10 yet to put in their 2nd attack.

I think it would be better if the "recommended target" granted more bonus loot than other enemy bases. That would probably help prevent that issue from happening.

That's exactly the tactic we are/were going to use. Glad to hear it worked !
We had the same problems with CC fillers btw, someone thought to help out by donating archers to every single base lol.
These are mistakes made the first time but U'll learn from them.

by doing that they are sabotaging themselves as well because they will get no winners loot, in our clan we organized it so the weaker players attack first from the bottom upwards, the other clans strongest maxed out 10 player attacked out 2 weakest players which is why i'm sure we will win

I have a solution to your situation, in my clan, we scouted everyone and picked 2 people to attack so each person had 2 people to attack and not attacking anyone else. The system worked great! Maybe you should try it!

Were you stuck searching for clan for a long time? 2:30 am seems like an odd time to start a war of this kind. And the open donations does definitely need some work, I ended up with a level 2 healer and goblins as my "defenders"....good thing nobody has bothered to attack me.
