Proposal: Buttons to clear army and/or to select pre-set configuration
Have you checked the forums for the same or similar idea:
Yes. Similar ideas but not the exact same concept or rejected as not formatted properly or did not have poll.
Reason:
This is an automation of a manual process which can be tedious when doing 100s or 1000s+ fights/day. v The game would speed up (especially on mobile) if players had the option to simply clear all their troops or hit a button to load pre-set uninjured ones. This also gives players time to think about their best combinations beforehand rather than in the heat of battle when mistakes can be made. The fight mechanics are otherwise kept the same.
Details:
Add 1-4 buttons next to the army selection area. 1. Clear. 2-4. Pre-configurations. 1-3. E.g. A player has injured or the wrong troop configuration and then faces heavy infantry in the next battle. They could hit a button to re-set the army to preferred configuration (e.g. uninjured artillery units) or clear all units and set up their preferred army configuration. Players will still keep the options to change troops manually.
Visual Aids:
Server down, unable to show.
Balance/Abuse Prevention:
It is hard to abuse this function. No additional relative advantages are created that weren't there before. If anything, it may level the playing field for players using different applications, network speeds or with mobility issues. Players that had not pre-set their configurations in advance may be at a disadvantage. This seems a minimal issue and a reasonable outcome.
