Currently, the faction I'm in has 25 wins and 0 losses in this WD. We've done this through careful coordination and correctly timed declares. Now, 2 wins in a row from winning a 4600 unit, some player that has been doing poorly this war decides to declare without notifying anyone else. Now the faction is struggling to hold onto the wins and we cannot stop this guy.

He may screw up the whole consecutive wins objectives for us and we cannot do anything(until after the war that is)...

I realize that only allowing the leader to declare wouldn't work because he/she won't be on 24/7. Same with the officers. However, it SHOULD be made that the leader can nominate certain people to be eligible to declare. This can be officers or players in order to allow specific roles.

With this power, the leader should also be able to remove this ability during war to prevent what is happening in our situation.

Thoughts? Whether or not THIS idea works something needs to be done about this OR kicking during war.

I think it should be leaders and just officers to declare, where they are based would obviously be up the faction leader to decide, but as it is, with the new faction LTQ's, it screws it up when you have a rogue member.

Before, it wasn't too much of an issue when this happened, but the stakes have changed, and if you've had a long streak and it all gets messed up, this isn't fun, or in anyway good for the game. It needs changing.

We had a member do that in Canada, HAD a member. Another did it this time, and to top it off, both of these guys were really weak players in a comparatively weak faction (1300's), and they thought hitting the DL was beneath them.

Yes. Very frustrating. Maybe being able to declare can be another "ability" officers can have. But the key is that the leader can take it away during war in case this happens.

I agree with this idea. We had someone in our faction do the same on accident and we've faced multiple factions where few if any players seemed active. Allowing officers to declare means only trusted (hopefully) members can make the decision.

Same thing happened in our faction. Someone did it by accident without looking, and another person did it several times, seemingly on purpose to mess up the faction win streak.

Yes. Some guys pulled together in an emergency and now we're at 32-0. We may pull for 35-0 for the next units. I'm not sure how we pulled out of that one but it all could have been avoided. We usually require communication through an external app but somehow we missed this one until the war started and now we can't do anything about it.

With the new missions, I don't like that one guy or girl can put at risk the efforts of the rest of the team.

I agree declaring war should be officers only.

We have had an issue the last couple hours where as soon as one war is over the game is immediately declaring war on its own with no notification in the forum. Is anyone else experiencing this??
