There should be troop re-balance in each release

[SiuYin]

A lot of troops are not used at all, the list is long
Mortar
Attack Helicopter
Destroyer
Bomber
Bazooka
Machine Gun
Armored Car

And some troops are over-used like shooter and Cannon

I understood that there is no perfect balance, but BHG should at least try to do something: Buff those under used, Nerf those over used.

It is not hard to archive:
for buff
reduce training time / cost /troop size
increase HP / DPS / Range
for nerf
reduce HP / DPS
and also some AI adjustment


It is not necessary to be perfect balance, but keep the balance change happened in every release.

I use Attack Helicopters from time to time. Not as much as I used to because of their low HP combined with their 7 troop space. I think they need a higher HP amount to justify a troop space of 7.

Armored Cars are a waste. I've never used one and have no plans to ever use one. I dont think I've ever seen one used against me either.

Destroyers, Bombers, and Bazooka do get used regularly against me. I see no reason to get rid of them.

I used to use machine guns regularly in my lineup until recently. They're the only other unit aside from HT with splash damage against defenders. Bombers got beefed up recently (double hp), so you'll likely see a lot more of them in the future, just that no one bothered upgrading them past zeppelin yet. Also, do you remember when they were first introduced last year? Until the damage nerf a single zeppelin could take out half the base.

What game are you playing? I'm regularly attacked by armies with Machine Guns & Mortars.
I agree these troops are not effective enough but they're still being used.

Yes, I believe we are in different game, I am facing those above LV200, and found no room for those troop.

but obviously you are in different world and your defense is weak enough so that can be easily taken down by such incompetent troops

And I know you, you are not welcome here, please stay away from my post

I believe SiuYin talking about war composition troops, or high level troops. I as IA player never ever using machine gun or mortar, for simple reason- they are useless in war, commando to... There are only 1 or 2 effective army combo in war, and other units are to "capacity expensive" and no one train them, therefore need boost.
I don't want to comment loot army composition- its pointless...

He specifically mentioned armored car, that's not a war troop. So no, he's talking about loot army composition here, not just war.

Forgot to mention, full support for this post idea from me

Yes, I mentioned some loot army (Armored Car).
Every troop should be designed for their own purpose, if its performance could not match the expectation, some change need to be done.

We can easily measure a troops' performance by its frequency of appearance in battleground.

for example, shooter occupied about 40% share of troop space of all battles , that means they are overpowered
while attack helicopter occupied less than 1% of troop space of all battles , that means they are under-performance

BHG should work in re-balance troop in every release in order to refresh playing style.
