Personally I think yes so people can choose what their preference is. Don't like scaling disable it, don't like seeing a persian army of 9 million warships leave it on. However there is probably something I'm not thinking of so please post your thoughts?

Voted null, but I think it could lead to complications and misunderstandings when sharing stats.

Seems like too much work to me. Maybe we can have a server that just has the old style. Like Duels... Just use the old theme.

It wouldn't actually be that hard to implement, just needs a bit of thought. What I'm worried about is solely the stats sharing/espionage aspect.

Old players have mostly gotten used to it by now, and I don't think we should confuse new players with two versions of troop counts.

Edit: I nulled at first before thinking a bit more about it.

...I doubt it. It's been over a year. Plus, it would screw over spying.

The date doesn't matter, but yes, that was something I was worried about then too.

I'd agree. It could be really confusing for people. Even if there was automatic conversion on things like espies, transfer of stats among allies or clans would lead to confusion.

Besides, it messes up flavour. I like not having unrealistically massive armies.

I'm sure that would be very funny if I understood the reference...
