Thats a "bottomfeeding" mechanism of the "superior" crown on the "inferior" ones :p. (I assume the intention is still to offer lower tier kds somehing to chase. If not just merge them all in 1 :)
And while many say it's for the better, gets more kds on top, gives incentives to better kds, i doubt that you can force this on people. It's a game and people play it as they like/can.
So why not better tie ww by honor ranking because the changes thread sais " In order to incentivize conflict between top WW kingdom" not top land kds. And honor is now the most dominant product of wining wars. (While land is not : whoring, exploring oow hits, you get the picture)
Ps: if in the past ww chart was flawed because of ld's and hunting wars with ghettos i can see a situation in the future when it would be flawed because of hunting wars with whoring kds. With a fs-ish setup get 2 war wins fast, dump pool and then war a whoring kd. Grind them out while they take your land, they tact widr, you take the ww, they take the land, both happy. After 2 ww +pool, so high acres, the ww land bonus will probably cover (or close) your losses and you move for next lower whoring kd, or why not, if possible, b2b.
