Last update, as we all know, completely revamped the shield system. But did it beat a dead horse? So the townhall no longer gives a shield, AND it also now holds a pretty good bit of loot. If it holds loot, why not let it give a shield in that case? Many would still be discouraged from placing their townhalls outside of the rest of their bases. The argument against this would be that a small chunk of loot is nothing for a twelve hour shield. So perhaps a compromise could have been made? Perhaps the townhall should give a smaller shield, like, say, 6 hours, or 8? Was this even considered or discussed pre-update? (Or post update, cough cough SC talk to us please cough cough.) Any viewpoints on this situation are appreciated, but please, no bashing each other, let's keep it civilized.
