strongholds?DomoSapien: That's a good question. I'm not entirely sure. I've got kind of a
silly question - can you join strongholds, currently, if you're not
in a clan, as a legionnaire for example? Theoretically even if
there is a strongholds tab and it goes away for non-clan players,
they should still be able to receive Stronghold invites.

I'm new enough to not know if there is a reason why we don't. I
think it would help change up and keep things fresh.DomoSapien: Good question - I'm not entirely familiar with the specifics but I
think Drone and Dominator make some good points. Rotating
strongholds tiers might be interesting.

the player base improve, and help increase the number of people
competing in competitive clan activities!DomoSapien: Happy to hear it! This goes for the comment below as well: I
have been told there is data which shows that players who join
clans progress through the game and improve more quickly, and there
is data which shows that players who join clans end up sticking
around and playing the game more actively, for a longer period of
time overall.
So perhaps making clans, clan wars, and clan content more accessible to more players is one of the solutions for said dwindling playerbase? There is also a possibility that an increase in Global Map participation by smaller or less-well-established clans could be used to demonstrate a need for substantially more provinces on the Global Map, which I know is something many clans have been quite vocal about for a while now. This is something that 1984BigBrother (our CS and Clans specialist) and I have been discussing in detail recently, and while we are just two members of the NA team we are happy to advocate on behalf of our community. But it's definitely a two-way street.

market and a dwindling player base. would be wonderful if you
had the credit equivalent to gold for de-mounting equipment, and
retraining crews as well so its more about free to play, and not
free to play, but still pay. de-mounting equipment requires paying
as well, if you want to retrain your crew at 100%, it also
requires paying. but then again, why you have to pay to retrain a
crew back to a tier they were already trained in, makes little
sense. I understand if you train hypothetically from the Hellcat
to the 25/2 and so forth on up to tier 10. but if I take that
same exact crew from the 25/2, and want to put them back into the
hellcat, i shouldn't have to retrain them since they were already
trained in the hellcat.. I don't think my crew has Alzheimer's, or
Amnesia.. but i know, its just another money grab to help support
the people who can't or won't pay anything towards the game.
DomoSapien: While I understand that dismounting and crew training is
cumbersome, I unfortunately lack the data science and monetization
expertise to comment on how this would impact our business model as
a whole. Happy to forward the suggestion to the money folks,
though!

the gold to start our own clan, so of course WG immediately drops
the gold requirement. It's like getting trolled by the MM all
over again! 
That said, we're looking forward to see what
changes are coming, as we haven't yet taken part in any clanwars
activities.DomoSapien: I'm sorry, man... we've wanted to announce this for a while but we
had to be absolutely necessary all the upcoming changes were ready
for release before we could spill the beans
