I'll have to address the home builders union as a whole here. You are wrong. The only reason you see success with homes is because of the level at which you play. You can log in every other day down there and still win a good number of wars. It doesn't make being inactive a sound strategy. It doesn't make building homes a sound strategy. The belief that homes are good is carried like a bible among the ignorant, who can't evaluate dynamic bonuses that don't reflect directly on the throne page.
