It's ridiculous that the only option is 30 or 50. 40 was a great number. Drop 50 instead. Seriously, what alliance can have 50 war ready allies at the same time?

v40 is gone now? It makes sense to me... queues were often long which means people aren't playing it. Getting rid of it puts more into v35,

We don´t have an option to do 35v35. Only options are 30 or 50

Complety agree. Our alliance loves 40vs40 wars. And we have been recluting other alliances to this modality. In 40vs40.
You are leaving 15-20 players y many alliances out of war.
In our case, dont use sandbags, we train a lot of new players (they waste money buying extra houses etc). devs, Guys you are lossing a lot of new players/costumers.
The GAP betwen 30vs30 and 50vs50, it is too large.

No one alliance can have more than 45 without invitations, because the alliance left to be visible to new players when have 45.
Its really awful, for all the players that are out of wars, for be over 30 players

I agree. I'm just going to copy my post from the other thread... more places for the devs to see:

Please bring 40v40 war back, this is a horrible change. The reasoning that there are too few players to support different queues makes no sense, this will make for even less players as we are unable to play the matches we want = players are unhappy. Having to sit 10-15 players every war is totally unnecessary.

Since the change, in just 3 wars we had 3 players quit/leave the alliance while not in the war line up (we switch to 30v30). Nobody likes to play a game where they do not get to play...

Plus, all 3 wars we got since the change were against completely outmatched enemies by us, so the argument of better matchmaking by this change doesn't seem to hold up at all, either.

If you won’t bring back 40v40, how about increasing alliance size to 55 or 60? The biggest thing holding people back from 50v50 is having all members available, because some are upgrading key buildings or are on vacation.

Also, if 1 ally leaves, it affects 49 players who can no longer search for a war of their preferred size. The gap to the next war size is so large the leader has to sit, and disappointment, up to 19 players. You are basically forcing alliances to limit themselves to about 35 allies.

Bringing back 40v40 is still the best option.

I am fully agree

Alternatively - only allow 10v10 wars. But let us have multiple wars going at once in the same alliance, with different players in each. Limit each group of 10 to no more than a three age spread - so atomic to cwa, or iron to medieval. Then only match against teams with the same spread.

That would make the pool of ten man teams huge. Then we can get fast, good matchups. And everyone can play in wars in their own age range. Stop the pointless matchups where one team has industrials against the others cold war.

I would prefer to see a game with a deep enough player base that 40s are easy to match again. But those days are not returning. Maybe multiple wars could keep everyone in the Alliance active together instead though.

Speaking as someone who doesn't war, multiple wars within the same alliance sounds like a great idea.

No news about returning 40v40 wars, Xabar. We should have an update soon on the next steps for Matchmaking updates/improvements. Stay tuned!

If you added support for custom, zero glory wars, it would solve a lot of these issues. Any size could be chosen, matchmaking complaints would be reduced, community wars could be arranged without any intervention from BHG, etc. It would make your job a little easier TinSoldier :)
