The WD points are based on statistical information. If you mean actual A&D then that stat determines a win or loss. You dont get WD points for losses. In fact they should be deducted for an unsuccessdful attack - not defense.
That defeats your own argument on levels doesn't it. Currently a lower level player takes a greater risk right through all battles and may stand to loose a greater percentage of units , has a lesser economy and perhaps less access to high grade units. If WD points were equal for beating them, then that would not encourage those lower level players and would not encourage factions to have them. If this is all inclusive then they have to be catered for I would have thought. HLPs have an advantage because they are usually stronger so a LLP will never score from them (due to stats). They ought to hold the advantage already of not giving away any points to a LLP. Conversely, There would be little or no encouragement for a HLP to attack a HLP. If the points were the same they may as well crush a LLP out of the game. I doubt that's the intent.
Your WD points are not necessarily worth less than a lower ranked player. If it were then it would be worked on levels and everyone would camp round L100.
I understand what you are trying to achieve but I think the results of what you suggest would not be as you expect. My own personal view (and we are entitled to 'agree to disagree' - something that encourages discussion, not crushes any alternate or unique thoughts; as happens here by the self appointed forum bullies) is that currently they have it pretty well balanced considering all the aspects of the game and the outcomes they are after. That's just my personal view and I reserve the right to change my mind subject to free input from people here.
I think we would be helped and this would be a far better place if we were able to express our views without being bullied to the point that good open thought discussions are quashed. I am not asking anyone to agree with me, these are just my current thoughts and I encourge contrary views with reasons so we can discuss them here.
