Since the introduction of the "OPT OUT" option, I have found that the wars (unless pushed) do not provide full participation from all members. I feel this hinders the full on Battle Royal some people are looking for.

Many clans have alt clans, feeder clans, sub clans.

IDEA:

Have another option in the clan info list called "Alliances" (ON/OFF options).
- if YES, another clan leader can request an alliance with another clan.
- Only the clan leader can accept or propose an alliance.
- Once the alliance occurs, you will now be in a "merged clan" with 2 separate identities.
- clan chat will work almost like global, but only the two clans.
- clan wars can be started up to a maximum of 50 players using members from both clans.

Because supercell enjoys the financial side: (sorry free players)
- you can set a timer on each Alliance, (ex. 3 days, gems to increase time by x# of days)
- set a cool down between any alliance (ex. 1 week, gems to decrease time by x# of days)

maybe this has been proposed, maybe not, but I already am doing temp clan merges with my friend from work. We take top players and jump ship for a war, it adds a new twist on attack styles, leadership styles, and adds more fun to wars and you get to interact with a whole new crew of people.

If you like this idea, post and bump!

Happy Clashing
