No to shield buster
I write this as a loyal Sims buildit player. Spend countless hours and real dollars. Sims does not care about us. We give them our time and money. And they slap us in the face, while forcing us to c...
There will never be a perfect game, because different people play it differently and hence, want the game mechanics to cater to their style and ideology.
On one hand you have those who find hiding under shields cowardly and boring, and prefer constant engagement. On the other hand, you have those who cannot babysit the game constantly, and need shields as respite for the times when they need to attend to life.

I can agree to what you said, but the club wars isn't a new game. It has been introduced years ago as a strategic game.
Lots of people has spend their money (like MiesRotterdam) to play this strategic game.
With the new shield buster it has become a (in my opinion very brainless) 36 hour shootout game without any strategy, not playable for people with a real life and for strategy loving people it is no longer worth playing it.
For me, it's totally wrong to turn the type of a long running game into the opposite.
I know how you feel, but that was the point I was trying to make.
While you find it unplayable now, there are others who have found the shield buster a great change for them. Because it gives them the game they want, at your expense.
I'm just a casual war player who just wants to get chests and fulfil COM assignments, so it doesn't really bother me whichever way. Just trying to point out that changing something can make a game worse for one person and better for another.
Not only at my expense (I didn't spend any real money for disaster cards), but at the expense of thousands of people who spent millions of dollars to play a strategic game.
Will they get their money back?
