Recently, my HQ 6 was selected for war in a group of 2 Prestige, 3 10s and a few 9, 8 and 7, and we were combined with 12 Prestige and 3 10s... Hahahaha No one attacked, just me, and as I didn't have anything else I could attack but Tatooine, at least I could recapture the OP at level 9 as HQ 6...
Top squads do not accept HQ 5 or HQ 6, much less put them in matchmaking for war. If your squad still does that, congratulations, but you must be one of the few I know besides my old squad Solo's Band.
Wars are now only for 10s and Prestiges, and top squads. Don't go to war with a bunch of 5 or 6 if you have 1 or 2 Prestige or you can call 12 or more full Prestiges in the rival team, or as Death Striker noted, you can call a squad full of mini Prestiges and it's going to be a massacre of anyway. The last has happened several times in my old Imperial squad. It is not worth exposing newbies to this.
It's sad because HQ 5 and HQ 6 are responsible for maintaining activity in squads and in the game, and squad wars are the best featured in the game, and it's the best way to integrate them into the squad routine and make them feel useful.

lukeskywalker wrote:Yeah, it's not a good thing for the game. The level 6's through 8's often are the people who would most like to war. They benefit the most from the frags given in the war crates, and the resources. We pull them into wars anyway, but we know it's most likely a 45-45 tie when Tako and Tat are in play. We just finished a 45-45 tie against an all Prestige squad, which meant the level 6's and 7's could only handle outpost duty. It would be better if they can get involved in base attacks too.
We were able to get some matchups just a month ago, though, so the well really dried up recently and post server maintenance seems to have been when the bottom fell out.
