I think that higher tier SH's are only worth doing to test out CW tactics.

 

Not even... plus who wants to basically give their strat to the enemy?

 

We gotta look at all the pros and cons about each tier of strongholds:

Tier 6

Advantages

- Almost instant games

- 20-80k profit per game depending on what you run

- 0 skill rounds required

- No real strat needed

- Boxes all day

- Short games usually

- Laughing at enemies wasting skill rounds on lightly armoured tanks

- Can play whilst drunk and doing *other* stuff

- Always cheer up anyone's day

- Even the most stupid strategies work

- Minimal concentration required

- Only need to right click and left click

- Even the shittiest teams still continuously play because its fun

Disadvantages

- What disadvantage

 

Tier 8

Advantages

- More boxes

- Can actually net profit

- More tanks to train crew

- Can come up with simple strats

- Testing strats

- T49 Spam

Disadvantages

- Tryhard team + gold spam

- Games are a *little* longer

Tier 10

Advantages

- Enlighten me

Disadvantages

- Credit loss basically every game

- Boxes/min is much lower

- Actually have to fully focus

- Games often boring, then everyone dies, then becomes boring again

- Not worth the waiting time

- Rofl-stomping new T10 stronghold clans will make them quit after one or two games

 

Do correct me if I'm wrong on anything or feel free to add more lmao.

with a small server population they need to increase credit earnings so you can break fairly even.

and then if you still want to spam gold in Strongholds, well thats your problem. 

 

otherwise it will never happen.

RU and EU, NA is a playable Tier10SH
It has disappeared in ASIA

 

There is a proposal to improve these
We need events that give a reward of small Gold in Tier10SH
My purpose is to play a lot of Tier10SH rather than the Gold
 

Even awards small of Gold
I think that contributes to the increase of the play population

 

plzz WG do this it helps alot for the server

Anyone want to play some SHs with 2pm and 99999? Loads of free exp/ credits to be made!

i don't play clan wars or strongholds but from a outsides point of view i would think tier 10 battles would get better rewards then the lower tiers.as from my understanding that strongholds and clan wars players are a more hardcore player base then the average player.

 

though having said all that my understanding was clan wars and strongholds were pretty much the same thing.

If you don't play such a mode, just stay out of it. Why necro an old thread that doesn't even concern you?

It's called honesty. And take a concrete pill and harden up if it hurt your feelings. I agree to be honest with him..... If you have no interest in this game play (CWs and SHs) then your input is null valid and useless to wg/the community because of that fact....................

stronghold battles (attack/def) are pretty similar to clan wars, stronghold skirmishes are more like pub games that are slightly more organised

well to be honest i was being interested in this part of the game till a council member told me to F off.now being told to F off by someone who is meant to be a representative of that part of the community for showing interest doesn't go down with many people at all including myself.

you might enjoy being treated like shit but i don't.

thank for clearing that up for me

Probably if there's only 10 for tier 10? I mean, 10 players max, 10v10 of tier 10. Most issues I've personally seen on other clans when it comes to t10 SH is that there's never enough for 15 tier 10 players.

Other than that, I'd say its the profitability. If you can't lose much creds per t10 SH game while developing skills/strats, then why not I'm sure more clans would be willing to play.

 

Buut I'm just echoing what most people here said.

There's no point playing playing tier 10s when it is 10v10. Tier 8 with 10v10 is already dead. This server is the only server where clans can wait in queue for 5 minutes and timeout during peak hours.

It comes down to risk vs reward.

Tier X Strongholds
- Many clans can't field 15 tier X tanks every day of the week, most can't field 15 tier Xs at all.
- Those who could field 15 tier X tanks wouldn't have a competitive lineup. 

Considering these two variables
- The skill gap would put a handful of clans at an extreme advantage considering that well established clans would have a variety of well equipped well crewed vehicles and the majority of players would consistently lose and hemorrhage credits (and will to play)
- 15 vs 15 Battles tend to play out more methodically than 7 vs 7 tier VI matches that can be won and lost in moments
- The fact that you can run 2x tier VI detachments with the same number of players and double your earnings
