After the war ended we noticed more cheats but spending money is not the issue here (That in itself is its own issue but spending money is not against the game rules). I wouldn't write a post to complain about how we got beat by someone that spends money. I may even write about how we beat people that spend money because that is a more interesting post. They have the perks you could not normally have in the game by rule. I can list it all out but these are the things we saw and again it's not visual nor having anything to do with spending crowns. We went to the alliance home page and went into those bases manually and confirmed all the upgrades and levels matched to make sure. I don't even post the MP ones that I know are cheating because that affects me individually but this was more important to me because I have 14 other players going into this war with me so as an alliance we are all getting cheated. Their number 1 was almost maxed out cold war base (Who actually was not good at attacking which was a boner killer, merely there as a defense which I crushed anyway). Was it likely they hacked it? Probably because there was no estate if you're going to spend crowns to do all that why not spend $50 for more citizens. But that is only speculation. These 3 listed below went against the normal set rules of the game and it's clear so they are being talked about. While posting it here, I also went through customer service in the game which is equally annoying because they asked me to send pictures of the specific coals that are being misused and like I said at the beginning that is almost a useless task because the coal takes up the entire screen when you click on it and it doesn't show the name. I asked if I could send a video because that would be the only way.
Atomic base with lvl 7 attack coals but only having a level 5 embassy (Level 6 embassy is needed).
Global base with lvl 7 attack coals. (Atomic age and embassy needed)
Industrial base with lvl 7 attack coal and (2) lvl 7 def coals. (Again blah blah)
