Display the standings in round Robin tournaments
A round-Robin tournament sets only one objective : be the highest in the standings. For now, the standings can't even be seen as a tournament goes on. It's just essential to make it possible to see how each one fares and where each one ranks.
64 votesRound robins now show the wins and losses of each player on the tournament page, even while the round-robin is in progress!

Custom Scenario - allow multi-territory selection
The page for creating a custom scenario takes a LONG time to use. You have to select each territory individually, then assign it an amount and slot. The only other option is to select all. Please add a way to add to the selection so an entire slot of territories can be added at once
63 votesIt’s now possible to set many territories at once when creating custom scenarios!
You can click on a bonus link (the boxes that represent a bonus), and then type in an army number or select a slot from the drop-down, it will be applied to the entire bonus.
This works on the website, but not yet on the iOS/Android app.

Add the No-Luck graph to the Unity client
In games with no luck in their combat, you can see how many armies will die in combat by opening the attack/transfer dialog, typing in a number, and looking at the "Kills" label.
For example, in default settings, typing in 10 will show that it kills 6. Typing in 20 will show that it kills 12.
This idea is to make this data into a graph, so you can see multiple values at once.
58 votesThe no-luck graph has been added back to Warzone! See https://www.warzone.com/blog/index.php/2018/04/update-4-07-analyze-graphs/ for details

tweaks to live tournament system
i feel we are still missing a few tweaks to the live tournament system:
1) being able to downsize and upsize according to joining demand (date of join gives people priority)
2) keeping a waiting list when tournament is full
3) pop up a confirmation when the realtime tournament starts to confirm the person is active before game is attributed, if it's not then pass their slot to next person in waiting list
4) option to fill up the rest of the tournament slots with bye slots when we are missing 25% of the people to start the tournament54 votesTournaments now support byes! They’ll fill up automatically and start in a much more timely fashion.

Clan Wars and Clan Rankings
Its a very controversial idea with clans wanting this but at the same time with non-clan people not caring at all.
Here is my idea of a clan war:
20 skilled players are chosen from 2 different clans.
They are then taken to an offical really balanced template and they do a 20 vs 20 match basically.The difference between this being a normal game is that the amount of xp players gain should be doubled, or at least x1.5, so people can become motivated to do this wars in the first place. The huge difference is that there should…

HTML5 Client
Allow playing WarLight through your browser without having Flash installed.
(Note: This would still assume you're running on a large screen. This would not automatically work well on mobile devices such as the iPhone since the UI is not optimal for an iPhone screen.)
52 votesThe game can now be played without Flash through the Unity WebGL client! To try it out, go to https://www.warzone.com, Click your name in the upper right, and select “Switch to Unity”

Ability to sort User-created maps by Highest rating, most played, date created, etc..
Similar sorting systems have been suggested, this just puts it all into one. First, each registered user would be allowed to rate a user-created map from 1 - 5, once. Then all maps can be sorted, a la Youtube, by Newest, Highest Rated, Most Played, etc...
This gives new players the opportunity to see the most popular maps and map creators the ability to tweak their maps based on their playability (also gives us bragging rights for the most played map).
45 votesI’m pleased to announce that you can now sort maps by highest rating and date created! There’s also a filter for “New Maps” as well as a bunch of new map-related functionality.
See the blog for the announcement: http://blog.warlight.net/index.php/2012/03/announcing-map-ratings-and-reviews/

Ladder 'Seasons'
This would cause the ladder to run for a determined period of time and then reset. The time period would have to be determined, but 3 or 4 months seems reasonable. At the conclusion of the 'season' final rankings would be permanently posted to a player's profile if they finished in the top (insert arbitrary number, such as 10, here). This would allow newer players to improve during the season and not have their early learning curve losses haunt them forever. The conclusion of a season could also see a massive tournament with the rankings used as seeds to determine…

Color unity for team games
In the larger games it is sometimes a chore to figure out who is on your team and who is not. If we could have the a team color or perhaps stripes or some other visual way to see who is on your team and who is not- it saves time from clicking on a territory and then scrolling down the team lists.
41 votesWarLight now has a feature that allows you to change player’s color. You can use this to change a team to similar or identical colors which makes it easier to visualize what territories a team controls. Check out the new “Change Color” button that appears when clicking on a player in the lower-right corner.

Setting to disable the window animation
This would add a checkbox under the Settings tab that would allow players to disable the "flyout" animation.
41 votesYou can now disable the “flip up” animation that was added in the previous release. This makes the windows appear and disappear instantly like they used to.
Just visit the Settings tab at the top of the game, and the setting to disable the animations is at the bottom of the page.
Or just use this link to go directly there:

Copy Teammate's picks
There should be an option to copy (mirror as some say) the pick set of a teammate. In ladder games this isn't a huge deal (though would save time in 3v3 ladder). But, in large games it can be a huge deal. In a 15v15 player game with 3 picks, that is 90 picks each person needs to make. It would save A LOT of time if you had 1 person input them, and the other 14 push a button to copy them. There should still be a 'commit' button after that so it does not auto advance if you…
40 votesIn the new Unity client, your teammate’s picks appear on the screen while you’re making picks. Therefore, it’s now super easy to copy a teammate’s picks.

Coins for watching advertisements
It is one of the Suggestions given by Master of Desaster(Master Clan)
https://www.warlight.net/Forum/84305-getting-coins-adsPokemon Go is well accepted game by all and the Pokecoins(similar to Warlight Coins) can be bought through money or collected in game(capturing Poke-Gyms). The levels needed to capture the Gym is higher and all players have equal chances of capturing a Gym(it is divided into 3 teams over-all).
But in Warlight, now the Warlight coins can only be bought or won through some special events-as the 100 coin gift is not happening now. Why can't we gain coins for watching the advertisements or advertisement clicks? A…

Display the booter
When a player is booted using the "direct boot" feature, the person who booted them will be displayed in the orders list for everyone to see.
37 votesI’m happy to announce that when a player is booted using the “direct boot” feature, it now shows who booted them.
It also shows how long the player hadn’t moved, so it will be very clear if the player was booted just after the boot time or after holding up the game for an unusually long time.

Chat window docked and permanently visible..
Have the chat window docked in a permanent position, I find it a bit annoying having to open it and move it around all the time, especially on team play when discussing areas, if you have to keep moving it out of the way.
36 votesIn the new Unity client, the chat window is indeed docked and permanently visible! Thanks for the suggestion!

Add buttons to jump Orders to the top/bottom of the order list
This would be in the window when you click on a specific order. What this would do is shoot an order to the very top or bottom of the order list.
Why this would be helpful; You can save time because you don't have to click the up/down arrow a bunch of times if you have forgotten an order that you want in a specific place. Mostly on big games like single player or a Quad Earth game.
The buttons would be Double arrows up or down like in the history window.
36 votesI’m pleased to announce that WarLight now has new buttons that can move orders directly to the top or bottom of the orders list!

2 checkboxes at QM templates
When I am playing QM I want to play some of the templates as RT (smaller maps) and some as MD matches (bigger maps). So it would be nice if you have 2 checkboxes in front (or behind) every template in the list - one for RT QM and one for MD QM.

Private Games (allows open seats without being advertised)
A "private game" is a public game which is not advertised in the Open Games list. (I believe the option already exists in the Warlight code, so it shouldn't require much programming work.)
This allows a player to start a game and then share the link in whichever way they like: on the forums, by e-mail, with their clanmates, or in current games they are playing.
By using a private game, a player can start games with specific rules or specific requirements. Doing so has two advantages:
- It doesn't take up space in the Open Games tab.
- The game creator…
