I would like to see you still able to use your Barbarian King and your Spell factory in wars even if you are upgrading them at the time war starts
They would be at their current level same as all other buildings/troops being upgraded when war is declared
It seems unfair to keep two key components out of the war element yet allow all other defenses and troops currently upgrading be active elements in the war.
Gotta manage your village, can't have it both ways
We have it both ways with regards to our defenses and troops upgrading though and have use of them in war........should also have use of the Barb King and your spell factory
War defenses:Originally Posted by dededode
Can still use defensive buildings while upgrading? Check
Can still use traps while upgrading? Check
Can still use heroes on defense while upgrading? Check
War attacks:
Can still use troops while upgrading in the lab? Check
Can still use spells while upgrading in the lab? Check
Can still make troops while upgrading barracks? Check (see note #1)
Can still make troops while upgrading dark barracks? Check (see note #2)
Can still use spells while upgrading spell factory? Sort of (see note #3)
Can still use heroes on attack while upgrading? FAIL!
So yeah, not using heroes during attack in wars is actually an exception, not the rule, as people seem to try to imply.
Note #1: You have multiple barracks. Assuming you max 2 or more barracks before upgrading your TH, you never lose the ability to make a troop. For example, if you have two level 8 barracks when you upgrade to TH7, you can start upgrading one of them to level 9 to unlock Dragons. You do not lose the ability to make Healers or lower troops during the upgrade.
Note #2: Basically the same as note #1. The only time you lose the ability to make dark troops is at TH7, if you want to upgrade the dark barracks to level 2 to unlock hogs. At TH8, you can get a second dark barracks, so you can always manage the upgrades in such a way that you never lose the ability to make a certain type of dark troop.
Note #3: While your spell factory is upgrading, you can still use any spells you brewed before the upgrade started. So it's possible to plan your upgrade so that you minimize the impact on your war schedule. For example, you can finish attacking in a war, brew your typical spell combination, then start the upgrade. Then you'll have full spells available for at least 1 attack in your next war. It's better than nothing. And anyway, you only upgrade your spell factory once per town hall, only 4 times in the whole game, so it's not a huge burden.
