Five star scoring system proposal

I just finished up an attack in a clan war and I got 97% destruction on a village and wound up with only 1 star for the effort because the dragon I used decided to turn toward perimeter buildings instead of the town hall.

So, would I would like to propose, assuming this hasn't been proposed before and been shot down in here, is a 5-star scoring system. It's pretty simple:

Town Hall is worth 2 stars by itself. 50% destruction of a village gets you 1 star, 75% destruction gets you another star, and 100% destruction gets you the last star.

TH - 2*
50% - +1*
75% - +1*
100% - +1*

I understand the emphasis of the game is to protect your town hall, which is why it's worth 2 stars in this proposal, but you're not just protecting the town hall. You're protecting the entire village. The scoring should reflect that, imo.

That is all. Thanks for reading, and I look forward to people ripping this proposal a new one.

Good idea but I would switch it to:

25% - 1 star
50% - 2 star
75% - 3 star
100% - 4 star
town hall - + 1 star

Getting one star implies winning. Getting 1 star for 25% would be silly.

Really the current system is fine. It puts the proper amount of weight on the TH as well as a reasonable weight on the number of buildings destroyed.

The TH is the main objective. If you destroy 97% of the base and miss the TH, 1 star is what you deserve.

Well if we moved to a 5 star system then a one star would seem like a failure but it would still help out your clan slightly. I do think it should be for clan wars only though since anyone could jump up to champions if you only needed 25% for a win.

The th should not be 2 star

Is your job here to ♥♥♥♥ on other people's ideas or do just get off on it? It isn't my fault that Supercell didn't design the dragons to go after defenses and the town hall but instead designed them to go after resource collectors. So no, it isn't what I "deserve"... it's just what happens.

No, dahimi has a point. The current system puts a lot of importance on town halls. This is just not like that in your mind because of farmers and whatnot. However, dragon raiders should know the AI and that they go after resource collectors. I always carry some minions as when the field is clear, they can head to the town hall.

Just change your attack strategy.

I guess I just have a difference of opinion on what dragons symbolize or what their purpose is, especially considering how much of your resources it takes to train and upgrade them, not to mention the amount of space in your army camp they take up. I would not confuse a Goblin, whose only purpose for existing is to raid resources, with a dragon. Dragons to me are war birds. They are destructive. They breath fire, ffs. They ain't worried about pocketing gold/elixir.

If the AI for dragons is for them to go after reaources then I think they should change the AI for the dragons. But maybe that's just me.

As for the scoring system, the town hall still keeps more importance than any other thing in your village. But the idea that it carries SO much importance seems unbalanced to me. If one town went to war with another town and killed and destroyed the vast majority of the town's inhabitants and almost all the town's infrastructure and buildings, would you say they lost the war because they failed to destroy the city hall?

In the 5 star system the TH counts as two stars. That's plenty of importance. It's more than any other building in your village, but ir doesn't place so much emphasis that it makes it unbalanced.

Maybe I misunderstood Dahimi, but their post seemed a little inflammatory. They didn't particularly like my anti-hopper thread a couple months back either. Oh well.

How do you get 97% and miss the TH? Lol

love the idea, but 5 stars is unnecessary. instead make it a 4 star system and how you achieve the stars stay like you said they would except the TH should only be worth 1 star.

I'm still asking that question. But the dragon was right there near the town hall but turned toward perimeter buildings. That's dragons for you. Dumb as a box of rocks. I'm not at all a fan of using dragons, at least not an all-dragon attack, but it was a donated dragon. A lvl 4 dragon at that.

I wish I could share the attack here somehow.
