This only is a problem because a WE is used even if the extra troops are not sent. I.E level 10 rally point sends 20k troops with WE checked, and the WE is consumed. That is actually pretty silly. No one would complain about this 'convenient feature' if a WE was only consumed when armies greater then one hundred thousand troops were launched.

Having cash items getting consumed without imparting the benefit they are purchased for is a big problem. This big problem has a really easy fix. Not sure why all the forum drama is necessary.

Then again, last I checked, the food bug still existed, and that is far more frustrating then the WE feature, and has been reported since beta. Yes I lost two WE the other day. It was annoying, but nothing next to the thousands of times I have had troops eat triple the amount of food they should when marching.
