false attack start prevention possibilities

I kind of had a thought today about possible feature or change let me know what you guys think. Some times when I'm hunting for some one to attack I accidently touch screen instead of next button and drop one troop and attack starts and I think ♥♥♥♥ well should I just finish the attack or swallow the loss of trophies. So I propose maybe a delay in the initiation of attack until maybe two troops dropped or the dropping of a hero because I know it'll effect people trying to shed trophies. Or maybe better detection of false starts, not sure how that could be detected either way just an idea...

If you look at the previously suggested items one of them is to not default to a troop so when you accidentally touch the screen there is no dropping of a troop until you select them...

It's a good idea and has happened to me, and I think the the previously suggested idea would work great.

I guess that's just the nature of the beast just curious what others thought

Actually, barbarian is selected by default when you attack(if you don't have a barbarian then whatever available troops you have).

it should have a 'Begin' button above or on the other side of the next button and u have to press it to start the attack

Yes, but again if you read what has been previously submitted, the request is to not default to any troop or spell, that way if you accidentally click on the map instead of next, it will not drop the barb, or any other troop. So if there is NO default, then in order to attack, the attacker would have to select what troop they want and then select somewhere on the map to drop them.

Ah. Yeah.
Sorry, I misread you first post.
This is also the conclusion I was hoping to come to.

Seems like this would be an easy thing to implement, hope it is considered!

Yes, but no one rated my thread or even replied

I agree with this but another thread I once read had a better idea how to prevent it...
