b) minimum CS lowered to total_turns*1/50 from total_turns*3/40

I believe this is a terrible change, at least from the formula. Last set, I was restarting with 220 CS, which I felt was just a little too much. A member of my clan died this round and started with 29 CS. This is WAY too low for having the 15 turn protection.

Using the formula from last round. If I were to die right now, I would get 117.6 CS back. I assume it rounded up so 118.

Using the formula from this round. If I were to die right now, I would get 31.36, or 31 CS.

I understand these are min, but with 1 CS min loss per AB/BR hit, your CS can easily get under 31 CS.

I suggest something like

RS = total_turns*2.5/60
if RS < 80
then
RS = 80

80 would give 25BPT (I believe) for restarts. This would be barely enough to recover a little bit after death with protection that last only 15 turns.

This would also help people who also get killed again after restarting. Lets say you do play 120 turns with the 31 CS you got after restarting. 120*1/50 = 2.4 CS... or 2 CS. This is accounting if you get BR'ed run.

I know this is all the min, but with BR and AB destroying 1 CS min, you will be resulting in an extremely low CS when you restart.

This is just my 2 cents. I remember reading that the code changed for the restarts to get them back into the battle. This round restart change doesn't do that at all.

That is all...

Bonus turns only result in spamming! So... I'll make it Alliance related...

These 4 turns will make me hit more people for land... in Alliance.

I think it was a little boring other than a few plays... I was expecting a 30+ points on both sides.

i thought food decay kicks in when you have a lot of food on you for a long period of time, not each round.

I think the display for food when you use a turn is wrong... I could be wrong thought...

There are several factors that determine troop lost. like dantzig said, you need to factor those in.

I personally never found Standing Orders that great. Take the fun out of watching the market to rush to get units before someone else...

I mean, if two people want turrets for $150 at the same time... who get priority?
