This happens in my club as it is mostly inactive at this point. There are a few of us that participate in club wars, but we never get attacked. Ever. Other teams do not attack the participating players as we might get war items, I guess. I have not been attacked in my last 4 wars. So while most of my inactive club is under shields, I just sit and try and collect enough war items to launch attacks, but often never get the ones I need to even come up for delivery. And as it is impossible to win this way, we never get enough points to buy items in the war store. So you may call it a cheat, but if the participating players never get attacked and other teams only attack players ranked 0, what do they expect.

Hi Bethann,
I’m sorry to hear about your situation, there are several reasons why clubs become inactive and certainly the turtle strategy (which is is not cheating) rates near the top along with blantant cheating. It really is sad...
I’m assuming you are the President and are at a crossroads...your options are limited you may have to make the hard decisions concerning your inactive members, recruit new members which can be problematic, consider merger with another club or (4) consider applying to an existing club. I suspect there are other options I’m excluding but I can’t think of any at this time.
If I can be of assistance in sharing information I’ve learned from folks in a similar situations send me a private message and I’ll be happy to share. Good luck...

We just got out of a war of 2 hours only. They massively attacked, burnt boosters, and after 2 hours they were all bubbled and the remaining 20+ hours nothing but nothing could be done. Horrible way to have wars. Lousy tactics, inactive bubbled players should be unbubbled

Yes, loosing money would be a way. Another is an automatic timelimit that is activated for those players who are activ in war. Once you've attacked there will be a maximum length of how long you can stay under shield.

This really should be dealt with. The game is getting really boring with many teams remaining under the shield throughout the battles.
In my team's last battle, the other team attacked us within the first hour of the battle and once they got ahead they remained under the shield until the end. What strategy is this? We can't even battle.
Please EA, solve this. Prevent teams from remaining under the shield for such a long time... it's really boring!

EA need to really address this, it’s happened in the last 3 wars we have played. Players staying under shield is making the game boring and I know a lot of people who will stop paying money to play. We just played a team that stayed under shield for over 35 hrs then in the last 10 mins they went under umbrellas and took the lead and we couldn’t even attack... while it’s a good strategy... it’s for whimps and is going to kill wars off. EA need to really address this ASAP. Either lost points under shield, automatic rebuild with no war items and no shield allowed in the last 20mins. Make it interesting or I wouldn’t spend another dime and a lot more have the same feelings. I would like to shame them but ea would just take it down.

I love this idea. I followed another thread regarding this same issue. We are currently at war and our opposing team has been under the bubble for the last 12 hours at least. We have just over 4 hours left and their entire team has made 10-11 repairs. Why hasn’t EA implemented a fix yet? This is so frustrating! I have paid a lot of money to EA for war packs to upgrade cards that I can’t use.

That’s a very fair question and good luck getting an answer. If you do it will probably be something like it was designed to offer an additional competitive strategy 😉 🤫 😉 (translated no need to concede we made a mistake and the beta test was not nearly robust enough...as long as we’re making money). You would think addressing their customers concerns quickly would be a critical priority...but obviously I’m mistaken.

I think an 8 hour time limit would be more than reasonable, with a loss of war items if you don't fully repair in 8 hours. This is getting absolutely ridiculous. EA needs to do something about it or I'm out. I've been member of an awesome club for as long time, and we can't catch a bresk on war recently or advance in the game or rankings because of this tactic. While it may work, i'm 100 percent certain it is not what EA had in mind when they designed club wars.

I would think that 8 hours might be a bit short. I’d go with 12 because 8 hours could mean a potential loss for repairs after a night of sleep or a day of work. This is under the assumption that auto-rebuild would not award any war supplies (shouldn’t if they aren’t doing the work to rebuild).
i know personally, I’d be irritated if I spent a night of producing goods to rebuild when I wake just to have it all auto-rebuilt with no reward.
