Just mach clan wars up by Town halls no experience points. That's would be the solution
our clan runs a pretty even mix of th levels from th 8-11 and we have been seeing an increase in these engineered bases....
our last 2 wars have been pretty interesting..... we lost 2 wars ago by 4, but we will win this one. I find it all depends on the skill of the attackers in these "engineered clans". we can easily crush a base that has th8-9 defences, but it hurts when it has th11 troops with max heroes and he's tucked in down in the 18-20 range.
it's frustrating, but we do our best.

OP is correct.
We recently barred all traditional villages from wars, only 0.5 bases allowed*. We faced a couple too many engineered/heavy 0.5 clans with massive advantages to continue in the old ways (and this is easier than telling our TH9 they needed legit heroes so they could three max enemy nines, got tired of TH10's having to drop on nines to finish them). We find people much more willing to just up their TH "early" and work on offense only, than sit out wars grinding hero levels at TH9.
Not that we haven't done it before (much longer has been done) but we are on a 14+ war win streak now (one or two of those were tied for stars, we still get a lot of even matchups)
*Max TH11 offenses exempted, we do have two full max bases at the top in basically every war, but nobody else is building eagles)

The game will NEVER be polarized into farm wars and engineered wars as long as competitive players in the CWL, TWC, and just your hardcore war player exist.
Farm wars, engineered wars, TWC. CWL, hardcore war clan, casual war clans, non-engineered clans bad war clans will all exist...
I agree it wont be a total engineered takeover but it doesnt have to be to ruin what fun maxers have left in war. Its definitely a downward spiral imo and these things tend to pick up speed with time. I have seen more than enough posts on forum saying i dont like engineering but i do it because i felt i had no choice.
I doubt many of these posts are actually unwinnable or even big advantage wars either. Usually engineered bases are not too great at attacking and stellar attackers will easily overcome an engineered clan.
I also rarely see pictures or tags posted for people to come assess the match...
I compare this to a player that cries a troop is OP... usually just turns out to be a big exaggeration or the player is a bad attacker with a bad base.
Clan wars with only fully maxed th11s will be even offence/defence like you want, so there's nothing stopping you from joining a clan like that and playing the way you think it was designed.
