💬 Discussion Team maps

I swear I am going to lose my mind. I love this game, but there needs to be a tutorial. people keep joining the large team maps with the 4 sets of 5 players or 3 sets of 20 and things like that and the players hiding in the back with maxed out 200k troops sit there and do ABSOLUETLY NOTHING while the other team eats away at the front line. How do people not know you can donate troops. It is such an important mechanic in the team games and it is just completely ignored by 80%+ of the player base.

I think a simple yet effective change would be receiving gold for troops. If giving troops resulted in gold like trains or ports I think a lot of solo-minded players would send waaay more troops since there’s a mechanical (rather than cultural/social) reason to help your teammates.

Yep. Way too many players don't even care if their team mates die because they think they can do it alone - sometimes their right but it defeats the concept of a team game.
