Can you begin to understand now why we are ****ed?

I think you are going to find it is still possible. As so many have pointed out, Valleys are never defended and if I take an Alpha players valleys, it does alot of damage to thier production levels. It will require you to actually manage wars in stages and fight them at a strategic level. It's becoming less of a hack and slash, more of a strategic game with each patch.
