Strategies to get a war

[Pillz]

With the average number of wars this age only 4 wars in 8 weeks, things are definitely slowing down in the warring game. Wars have been steadily becoming more and more win-dependent over the ages to be worth engaging in, so less and less kingdoms are willing to just war for the sake of warring. Offer to war at a mild disadvantage and try your best to overcome it, makes the war challenging and keeps your kingdom active, avoiding the stagnation that is seeping into the warring game.

Which is literally counter intuitive.

Losing just means you can win your next war and get to the same size, basically, and try again. There are zero disadvantages to losing wars besides rankings, assuming your players don't mind. And for a lot of kds it 's what they need to do anyways to learn.

And the fact that ww bonus can be rather significant is a good thing for kds that do lose, assuming they eventually win.
