Suggestion: Base Tagging/Calling For War

I think the ability to "tag" a base as yours to attack for war will be EXTREMELY beneficial for current clan wars. As clan wars can be up to 50 members, it is extremely difficult to coordinate who is to attack what base, especially when members all log in at different times and may not scroll through 200 chat messages to see who's going to attack who.

My suggestion is this, once a war search as been completed, the following becomes possible

-to tag a certain base as "yours to attack" (for example, I want to attack base 12, I go to base 12 of the opponent and click on the "tag base" option
-once a base is tagged, perhaps a small indicator (such as a * beside the base number) can appear to indicate that this base has been tagged
-once a base has been tagged, it cannot be untagged unless the person who initiated the tag untags it, or has attacked
-once a base has been attacked, the tag is removed
-you cannot tag more than one base at a time
-players can still attack a base someone else has tagged, but similar to bases which have been starred, perhaps a warning can say "your clan mate has already tagged this base, are you sure you want to proceed?"
-if someone else attacks the base that you have tagged, your tag still remains unless you remove it or attack that base

I think this will be helpful so that clan mates can coordinate attacks and plan their armies accordingly. It will prevent someone from preparing for a specific base, only to have someone else attack it first.

Of course, it doesn't prevent someone from attacking a base that has already been tagged, that is something that can be dealt with internally within the clan...but at least you have been warned!

Thoughts and feedback?

A base calling/dibs system is officially under consideration. No word on when or if we will see it for certain but it is on SC's list. There is a link to my more robust interface below in my sig but a simple dibs system would work in most cases.

But it should me many people able to tag the same base so u know who want that base and the taggers could coordinate easily if one gamer only are able to tag a base and the clan rules says that the tag must be respected it will cause many problems

Fantastic idea, and from a "Fresh Spawn," no less! (that is clearly an anomaly, haha)

I really like this idea, but to take it a step further I'd like leaders/coleaders to have the ability to leave notes on the bases, similar to that of operation attacks in Boom Beach. I made a thread about it here

I was thinking of a very simple system, hence why only one person could tag the base as opposed to many. I wouldn't be opposed to it but I'm just thinking from a programming perspective, might be easier to just have one base tag.

The "one tag must be respected" rule is something that is more a within clan affair. With or without tagging, people can still attack out of line and this tagging system would make no difference anyway. However, the point of the tagging is so that at least you know who wants to attack that base. If your number 5 has tagged number 9 for 12 hours but have no army trained, at least the leaders and co-leaders can know that they want that base and can contact them to see when they are planning to attack as opposed to having no idea who wants to do what.

Clans can set their own rules regarding tagging (for example, it must be respected, you have 2 hours after tagging to attack etc. etc....)

I totally agree about the leaving war notes idea. I just have a feeling that writing text and notes within the game is something that Supercell isn't keen on. I'm basing this on the fact that there's no direct messaging system within the game and how they limit leaders and co-leaders to 1 clan post every 24 hours.

But I think it should tell you who has tagged it and they'll the person who tagged the base should get a notification if someone else attacks the base.
i agree with this because it is so anoying if you attack a base in war then get demoted or yelled at(or even kicked) because someone else wanted it and says it in the clan chat then their message telling us that they want that base is removed because of all of the clan chat

I think the DMing thing is b/c they don't want players harrassing other players. But the war base notes would only be viewable from the side of war writing them, not both sides. It's more for laying out strategy and helping with specific traps or flaws you might see that lower, greener warrers might fall into or not catch and exploit. If leaders/coleaders wanted to just write obscenities in the base notes, they could do that--but it would be no different than what you could say in the clan chat. I just don't see the benefit of them not using it for strategic purposes.
