i have this new idea that could probably make Warlight better. clans could have next to their name it could say peace or war depending on what they are at the moment.

And if clans wanted to go to war with other clans they declare war with a button and their status turns to [At war with bla bla bla] And every game those two clans play with each other, the winning clan gets some type of points and the first clan to get to a certain number of points win the war. And the clans who won the most wars or has the highest number of points could be at the top in the clan ranking list.

This idea came to me this morning. Anyone else think it would be a great idea?

But the clans can only go to war with one clan at a time.

even though warlight is already awesome. this could make it the best game out there mwahahahahahahahahhahahaha

This actually sounds like a good idea.

I guess ffas would not count.
Same goes for teamgsmes, unless all of Team a is from Clan A, and all of team b from clan B.

There would need to be a way to register a game as counting towards the 'war'. This would allow the system to 'count' the win/loss, perhaps after launch a screen that one member of each team needs to 'confirm' that it is a war game?

I really like the idea too.

Could contribute to clan rankings on the list of clans?

Great idea... just the solution to the recent lack of clan drama cluttering up the forum! This would guarantee that the forum was never lacking for childish, pointless clan drama!

i only posted this because my clan The Lost wolves are about to go to war with Vitrix Mortalis and it came to my attention " how are we gonna know who wins?"

good idea but each clan would have to agree that no more than 35% of members posts on the forum would be about there clan wars... but that would be impossible

henns the points would only be available during teamgames. Team A one clan Team B another clan ;3

Sninja not if they post it in private :U

Use a spread sheet? or setup up mini tourneys and use the victors of the tourneys for points.

I think I would prefer a clan ladder though to be honest. where clans submit a roster to compete in a serious of formats 1v1 2v2 3v3 4v4. similar to the structure of the seasonal ladder.

yes but what if one clan wanted to go to war with another? this would serve greatly..

I like the idea but, as Henns said, only if the game is 100% clan A vs B (intruders = no war game).
I was thinking of a "total war" or "semi war" settings. The difference being that in the first one all games of those clans are war (only the 100% clan vs clan condition) and in the semi only the ones marked (the players can enable or disable it in each game). This way the players who likes to play "crazy settings" can try it with no risk, or playing with a friend without hurting the clan, etc. Ladders (1 vs 1 at least) should be a must in the war (auto enabled in semi war).

But maybe only "total war" would be more fun :P

And I think that more than a war at the same time could be good, maybe 2 or 3. And a rule to not start a war with same clan for a period of time (maybe a month since last war ended).

The ranking could use an Elo system for clans, same as 1vs1 ladder.

thats pretty much what i said but you used big words xD and i like the semi clan war and full out clan war. :)

Fizzer just needs to adopt my challenge league and use that with clan league to create a total score. Then add in average points per member or something.

that could work i guess i dont know what your challenge league is about :I

It is on forum, you can join next season:
