One of the features of CoW Classic (for those who have been around that long) was the ability to kick out inactive players from the current map and replace then with new players. This privilege would only be accessible to the game admin (usually the active player with the most VPs at that point). It allowed countries that have been taken over by the AI to be controlled by a human player joining at ex. day 20 in the game. Why they removed this feature for 2.0, no one knows. But with the increasing percentage of inactives in the games that make them painfully boring, I suggest that this feature be revived. Nowadays it is very rare for even 40% of the players to be competitive. If this feature was reinstated, there could be more human players on the map and it would make it more exciting, particularly for asymmetrical maps and scenarios.

They could honestly just implement a bracket system. Would solve the inactivity problem, the mismatch problem, and it'd make balancing the game much more easier.

We decided that it's not worth it, so we disallowed joining past a certain point.
