If you have an advantage, you should at least earn it. If advantages of donating and plain hard work are diminished exponentially over time as they have been it's not really fair to just give advantages to those who have neither spent as much time or money as those with the advantages they earned that way.

if i had a choice of one or the other, i choose blood and guts. Those who can't afford to keep up with the big dogs fight the less big dogs. That's just the way it is. nothing's free.

My second choice would be total sanitization. Fair is fair. If you're taking advantages away, take everyone's advantage away and put it on an even playing field for real.

You'd have to adjust gang size as part of your strategy.

Oh, I agree. Out of the 2 choices, the blood and guts would be preferential. But whether it's strictly blood and guts or sanitized, there would be complaints from both sides. Lower level gangs complaining about the cost of losing blood and guts type wars or higher level players complaining that wars are too soft and there is no real point in them. I think trying to find a middle ground that both sides could be happy with would be the best option. One where there is a safety net so to speak to appease the pacifists who don't like warring and where there is also a substantial gain for warring for the ones who like wars.

Unfortunately, trying to find said middle ground to make everyone happy probably is gonna be very difficult
