[Suggestion, QoL] 6.5 day HA09 Epic Troop retraining & 6.5 day HA10 Legendary Hero retraining
Anti Hoarding ( see notes )
The queue for HA09 Epic Troop retraining, and HA10 Legendary Hero retraining is maximum of 1 to prevent both being used as hoarding ( iron, and food, respectively )
7 day 0 hours
Both are 7 day 0 hours
Same time
Unfortunately, the combination of queue limit 1, and 7 days 0 hours, means it is impossible to start the next retraining so it finishes at the same time
Start time creep
This means the finish of the next retraining creeps later and later until it clashes with work hours, meal time, sleep, etc.
Option A
To help deal with real life, reduce the duration to 6 days 12 hours
Example
I want each retraining to finish at 5:28 P.M. EDT ( 10:28 P.M. UTC ) on Sunday
With 6.5 day duration, I can start the next one as late as 5:28 A.M. EDT ( 10:28 A.M. ) Monday and still stick with finishing at 5:28 P.M. EDT ( 10:28 P.M. UTC ) on Sunday
Option B
Cap the queue at 2, instead of 1
This would give users 7 days to queue up the next retraining and still keep the same finish time
Option B is not ideal, as it allows limited hoarding ( see notes )
Option B temporarily hides / removes an additional 4* troops, or an additional 5* heroes, from a player’s roster while the retraining is active potentially leading to customer service tickets
Option C
Double the ingredients, and increase the duration to 13 days, 12 hours
Example
600 recruits, 2.576 m food, 2x 5* heroes and 13 days 6 hours results in 2x 5* heroes
This combines Options A & B, without the option of hoarding ( iron or food )
The main advantage is it helps preserve spend depth
Option C would require doubling Recruit storage ( Stronghold 25 maximum of 352 >> 704 ) but that would also be a Quality of Life improvement
