Hey guys, I read through the old thread regarding troops donated to war castles. It seems like there were quite a few people on board for making a shift towards high level wizards and archers as well as a suggestion for valkyries. I would like to get a feel for how many people actually have the higher level troops. Please take a minute and answer the poll - you can pick more than one option.
Never posted a poll on here before so we'll see how it goes!

One issue I see here is that people should specify what they want in their war castle on their castle during prep and people should read it.
If people want wizards, archers, Valkyries or dragons then they just need to say.
I get very annoyed when I see that people have been donating inappropriate war defense troops or not donating what has been clearly requested.
I would never give someone a valk unless they asked for it, since it means no space for dragon - if nothing is specified we seem to default to dragon.
And if people have specific requirements someone can have a look and maybe cook something up for them.
One other little bugbear from me - I keep logging in and seeing a war was started 2 hours earlier and the war castles are already full.
We have had complaints now and then over the last 3 clans that not enough people are contributing to the war castles - but it seems hard to get a chance sometimes when there seems to be a rush to fill them in the first 2 hours. We don't need to rush it as much as we are here I don't think.

Hey Vin, thanks for the feedback.
Issue #1 - There was a lot of discussion on chat about trying high level archers & wizards as defense in clan castles because the clan that whooped us had those troops. They held up pretty well against our attacks and some felt our dragons were getting drawn out and not holding up as well. Regardless, it was just something we decided to try - doesn't have to be the norm. I agree with what you are saying, some people know exactly what they want in their clan castle, they specifically ask for that troop, and we should make every effort to fill their request.
Issue #2 - You're right, we do fill those castles fast and this ties into issue #1. Are war castles filling so fast we don't get a chance to ask for the troops we want?
So I pose these 2 questions...
Question #1: How do you get members to slow down on prep day donations?
Question #2: If someone has not specified war troops, should dragon be the default or should it be high level wizards & archers?

Q1: I dunno really - I don't really mind the filling quickly, but I think we don't need to put so much pressure on ourselves to fill them so quickly.
Q2: That's a call I think you need to make Heather, in discussion with the co-leaders if you want.

The conversation had with mtp & bolt last night confirms to me that default defense troop should be wizards & archers of the highest level the clan has. We should still fill war castles as requested, which I know doesn't always happen. We'll find a way to get better at this! However, if someone has a troop thats really good for defense, i don't want them to feel limited. Like the witch that was put into war castles for the coming war. Which is another good reason to slow down and see what players have to donate, like suggested!
