Did they eliminate this? I skimmed through the posts again and didn't find anything. Unless I missed it somewhere

No, I think they're still going to put that feature into the game.

This is still true. You have to use 50% of the defending base's max army size for the TH level in order to receive a shield. In other words, if you're attacking a th9 (regardless of army camp size), you need to deploy 110 troops to give them a shield. If you're attacking a th10 (regardless of their army camp size), you need to deploy 120 troops to give them a shield. Etc.

The great thing about CoC is being able to get to your base whenever you want. To adjust, collect from your collectors or send a mail note to the clan.

During wars, leaders are often on for extended periods to help guide new attackers, assign targets and donate war troops. From what I've read, this is now over unless you buy more time. The game is no longer free.

"For example, say a player reaches their Personal Break 3-hour limit. They will get a 6-minute Personal Break timeout to give other players a chance to attack them. If 6 minutes goes by without a defense, the player can then come back online for 15 minutes protected by Village Guard (and attack as normal, if they like). Then comes another 6-minute Personal Break timeout. Say, this time, someone attacks them for 15% destruction and loses. As this is a weak attack, the player can again come back online for 15 minutes protected by Village Guard. The 3rd time they get the 6-minute Personal Break timeout, no matter what happens, they will get a full reset on their Personal Break 3-hour limit and a full automatic Village Guard (via the Mercy Rule)."

As a clan leader I have been on for long periods. If the PBT "black hole" then starts I may not be able to get on for any real effective time without spending on gems or waiting to be attacked (this might mean having to sacrifice loot to ensure a quick attack happens).

It looks like my freedom to play has been removed or certainly hindered all for the pursuit of the trophy pushing crowd.

I am trying to remain open minded but this is the first update change in a long time that makes me rethink the time I put into this game. I hope I'm wrong. I do love CoC's. If I am, I hope a moderator can elaborate. Thanks.

You will only reach their personal break if you are not shielded. If you are shielded you will never be kicked out of the game.

How does the new update affect Trophies? If my TH is outside, and gets sniped? Do I lose trophies still?

you will still lose trophies

If it where 3 hours in a row, and did not take 63 min of unsuccessful attacks or non attacks (if I comprehend it correctly) it wouldn't be so bad. The idea that IF you don't get a real attack and or have to jump through hoops to play a cell phone game without gemming REALLY irritates me.

IF it where to kick in after 3 hours of continuous play and IF there where not this silly "mercy" garbage and just boot your for 6 min then it would be tolerable. But to tell players after being on 3 hours basically randomly (assuming u are not attacked) will be extra annoying. If the game is annoying as it sounds it will be I will indeed quit and the $20 gem purchase I made last week (why I Now regret) will be my last..

i could care less about trophies as I'm not a max base yet (still have some lvl 11 walls and bk is 31 and aq is going to 39)

now with th11 I would plan to farm to max there.. However, if u can't even be a farmer without random interruptions I won't play anymore.

Lastley, all sneak peeks so far seem to be anti farmer / war clan player and will be off putting to many coc serious players

Explain these "random "interruptions..
