Personally, I am very much in favor of low tribe limits, which is also why you have seen them decrease of the last year to an average of 30. I would like to lower this even more, towards 20-25, but I have noticed not everyone in the community shares this opinion, which is why I have kept them around the 30-35 (exception to that being HP).
In my opinion, a lower tribe limit will add an extra challenge to the game; Players are often complaining that the sizes of the worlds have decreased, which is true, but the tribes have not shrunk with them.
It has become too "boring" on a world where 8-12 "real" tribes dominate the entire world. Where is the challenge? Wouldn't it be more fun if there would be more tribes posing an actual threat? Bring up your best diplomacy games to keep a balance in the game. Fight each other with quality instead of quantity. Be
picky when it comes to recruitment, and do not just recruit someone "because I still have a spot".
I really believe there's so much more fun to be had in Tribal Wars if people wouldn't be sticking together as much
I would be more than happy to hear
your opinion on this! Please let me know what are the advantages / disadvantages, open a discussion about it and then we can maybe change a few things!
