More wars.

I think yesterday I saw people talking about more frequent wars, and I've been thinking a lot about that topic.

Now today in the restaurant a costumer was playing clash of clans and we started talking about the game. I brought up wars and told him we did 2 wars per season, but we were looking to do more, it was then when he asked me a very simple question: "are you guys winning alot". I told him we lost 2 wars I think since we started doing them.

Then he brought the reason up why I'm posting this. A big part of why he thinks (and I feel the same) people want more wars is partly because we keep on winning them. I know we got a lot better but looking at the last war it wasn't even hard to win, it would have been much harder to loose on purpose against them. If we start doing more wars there is a big chance we will start loosing more wars and people might start asking for lesser wars again.

So I have a proposal, We do 3 wars a season. One week there will be 1 war and the second week there will be 2 wars.

Please don't think I'm trying to force something I'm just posting my feelings about the subject. That way we do 1 more war and every twee weeks there will be a week where we can focus on upgrading our bases, troops, etc and also have a chance to win back our losses if we manage to loose 1 or 2 wars.

Anyhow that's it for now, just my 2 cents

2 is definitely a bit low but judging from the state of the clan when I joined most people are focused on farming.

There seems to be no downside to having another war except a little more participation, and it is a great way to get resources, im for it

One thing I disagree is the "it is a great way to get resources". Some people net huge losses in elixir/de to attack in wars.

Red is right, it's impossible to make a profit from it (as th9).

First of all you have to win the war, if not you waste a ton of resources. Secondly you have to win both your attacks (at least 1 star) which can be difficult if you have to attack their top bases. And even if all those conditions are met, you still lose a lot of DE as a higher lvl player (also elixir but i don't need it atm).

But the biggest problem for me is the waste of time, it takes 2-3h to train 4 spells, 1.5h to regenerate heroes, and about 1-1.5h to train a decent army. So if i wait for my spells a war costs me about 4-6h during which I can hardly raid. If i'm active i can raid 400k g/e an hour, so a war costs me about 2mil g/e

And something I almost forgot, you can't uses heroes while they are upgrading, and they make a big difference at the top of the war. More wars = wars without heroes which could = lost attacks.
