Has there been a change? Why do you think including lower level bases "distorts" matchups?

I'm concerned that this change could force alliances to no longer include lower level bases in wars. We have a wide range of levels and in the current war we faced advanced bases across the board. It was so unbalanced there was no reason to participate. This has never happened before. Hopefully, this is an outlier because I would hate to boot players that are not at the same level.

*Are there any plans to reconfigure the method in which World War match-ups are found, specifically to address the distorted "weight" of an alliance via inclusion of under developed allies on the roster?*

All these ideas for new content are meaningless until you have a product that works and functions as intended. Fix the network disconnect, alliance search, mysterious medal system, and the numerous AI bugs before even starting down the road of adding any new content. This cycle has perpetuated itself for long enough, and has led to more and more problems with every update or new unit introduced. My only wish is that the next update adds zero new content, yet makes the game fully functional again.

[Bobortvogel]

OK, I've not seen that one.

 

[Bobortvogel]

Agreed! War replays...

And make them shareable when released!

I really don't see any benefit to war replays .. at least not yet .. I had a defensive win show up in my battle log and I gained 36 medals without giving up a star. So I watched the replay ... the results were very different from what I expected based on the battle log display. my town center was destroyed which should have given the player a star and a victory .. I also lost a good portion more gold and food than what was shown ..

What I am trying to say is that no matter if war replays are on the agenda, with unrelated information being displayed, they will be a farce.

... when replays are accurate representations of the actual battle and game crashes are reduced to an uncommon phenomenon, then war replays will mean something.
I'm ok with other aspects of war including the leaderboard and some tinkering to the displaying of names and battles within the war report.
