Bug: unable to place 2 war attacks, likely reproducible

[davidparks21]

I have played 1 of my 2 war attacks as shown in the screenshots below, but I'm unable to play the 2nd one.

The most likely reason is that I started an attack against the wrong target, but well before the countdown to start, I ended that battle.

That action seems to have counted as one of my 2 attacks, but it did not register as an attack in the battle report. To be consistent it should do one or the other (preferably not count as an attack since no attack ever took place, allow the user to back out of their error).

I suspect this can be reproduced, though I won't be trying to do so myself.

This appears to be a server-side issue. I tried re-installing to clear it with no change.

That's not a bug, rather one of war rules. If you forfeit war attack, it will still count as an attack but will not show in attack log.
Better post it at Ideas & Feature Requests for that, I guess we all prefer it not to be counted.

It’s not a bug that’s how it is and how it’s always been. Once you end battle during a war attack you lose that attack even if it is before the 30 second pre battle timer runs out. There’s so many things before you attack that you shouldn’t have to end battle.

As a rule that's fine, then it should show in the war log as a 0 star attack. By not showing in the log it's inconsistent. It appears to everyone else as you did nothing when in fact you can't do anything. Inconsistencies like this are UI bugs in my book.

I would also point out what what you say is inconsistent with how regular battles work. If you cancel before the battle starts you are not penalized.

Inconsistencies like this are too common in the game and should be addressed. And should not be acceptable.

It still doesn't count as a bug because it is the way it is lol and better put in Ideas & Feature Requests, or General Discussion. So our dev could consider about changing it.
Or even better, make a poll

It's crazy that you can end a MP battle before the 30sec timer runs out, without affecting anything, but in war it counts as an attack.
