THE STORY...
The powers to be at BeachHead studios sprung a Clan Wars on the community. Right over the Xmas Holiday. Thanks BeachHead. There was only like two to three days notice on this, and it caught A LOT of clans off guard. Adding to the confusion, BeachHead changed the app yet again, for the fifth time this season. Reworking how people are added, dropped and how their scores count during a clan war. This version (ie, 'fix') is worse than the prior fix. Oh well. It's never easy.
Fortunately, we have a number of people in this clan who monitor Twitter closely. BeachHead's actions were no surprise to us. We were on that like white on rice, and put together a somewhat light team of players, and put forth the minimal effort needed to ensure that we could pick up yet another 'W'.
Unfortunately, the new 'fix' to the clan app is still making it difficult for us to get people into the system. We also had some people lock up, which forced us to have to cut them, and then try to re-add them later. Last but not least, the app missed a number of wins we scored over the CW. There are still issues here.
But as far as the actual Clan War details? HSV1 now goes to 3-0 now for the CoDAW Clan War season, as we picked up our third straight Clan War victory. It was a crushing blowout win. We destroyed the seven clans who played us. But I should hold down the self congratulatory back-slapping, as again.... this is Platinum division. And with that, for all we know, the other opponent clans didn't even find out about the CW until it was to late. Not that it would have mattered if they had shown up. We swept the board and controlled all the nodes in just a few hours after the start. This was a one punch KO. But for now, we'll keep things in check. Winning this Clan War was the equivalent of beating up some obese eight year old kid. Nothing to write home about.
Yes. This was a pretty stupid Clan War.
Here's the scores:
1. HSV1 - 179 2. .................0 3..................0 4..................0 5..................0 6..................0 7..................0

If any of our clan members wish to follow the clan war process in more detail, another good source of information is this site. 'Reddit's YoYo Clan News' www.reddit.com/r/clannews/Also, get on Twitter. A number of us are on there and that's how we can keep up with everything so quickly.

Great job everyone. Nice write up stone. We must be getting near 10-0 now if you add in the end of ghosts.

We got the loadout (chest piece) looks good. I guess helmet is next? That should complete it, unless their are boots or shirts.

The rewards are exo, shin guards, pants, and loadout in that order. Those are the only 4 rewards as of right now for the centurion set. I'm sure diamond will have 4 more armor pieces for a new set. Requiring 4 wins as well

Requiring 4 wins as well I have a helmet that looks good with the rest...but doesn't it seem strange that they wouldn't have a helmet for it? Any idea when diamond starts? On a side note, I have got us 3 new members (all good players) the clan rewards def attract attention.

I would have rather got a helmet instead of gloves, but the set still looks good. I would think diamond starts sometime in February based on last year. I thought I noticed a couple new guys hell yea bro. I'm sure the rewards are appealing to a lot of players as well as red clan tags, which we are 4 levels away from.

Yea I'm looking forward to the red clan tag. Hopefully these new guys (up to 4 now I think) will be active enough to help us get there quicker.

Yeah, I saw that one Twitter too. I'm going to be on AW all this weekend. And will be around for the CW. I'll send out a mass message this weekend about the dates.
