Everyone has loads of extra credits with nothing to spend them on. The credit sink achievements are getting boring and are only temporary.

How about a new leaderboard? "War Chest" leaderboard, people participate by donating credits to their factions "War Chest".

There are a daily and an all-time leaderboard, daily leaderboard lists players, the all-time one lists factions. There is an achievement for top player of the daily leaderboard. There are leveling achievements for certain amounts of credits donated.

The factions War Chest would be there mostly for bragging rights and would have no affect on the war. It could be used at a later date to decorate faction bases, buy slots for guest players to be able to get into your factions HQ, buy extra features for the HQ, buy extra rooms.

 Amazing idea. Could be a really nice concept

So, there is another spin on this idea I had. Everyone seems to like gifting, right? The December gifting season is varium only, this could be credit only and is active during the rest of the year.

In this case instead of "War Chest" leaderboard, there would be "War Propaganda" leaderboard. The way this would work, is basically the same as gifting. So, for example you pay 8500 credits to give everyone in the room "gifts". The "gifts" would contain either arcade tokens, 15, 20, or 25 credits and weapons that can be sold for 25 credits and maybe a small chance (0.05%) at a special rare vehicle (the reasoning behind low prizes is that we still want to take the credits out of the game, not create more of them, 175 players x 25 credits = 4375 credits), but the gifts add up, so it would be still worth to be in the "gifting" rooms, and the special rare item that could drop would be cool too. (the numbers can be adjusted, I just used those as an example)

There would be a monthly "War Propaganda" leaderboard, the top player can pick one of the past war prizes as a reward (NW can't spend time to make custom items for this since it's credit only). And there would be achievements similar to the gifting ones. Global gifts, streaks and all that stuff. There would be an alltime leaderboard, for the top players.

The reasoning behind war propaganda would be that Exiles are spreading credits amongst the citizens of Delta V to get them to join their cause and the Legion are paying people off to help maintain order.

This might be easier to do, since they have the infrastructure from gifting, and Titan could possibly reuse that. The one downside that I can see from this, is that people might not be as excited for the December gifting anymore, or it could have the exact opposite effect and they would be even more excited and more involved in the December gifting to gather more credits.

Actually, the fact that everyone has 'loads of spare credits' is kind of an illusion. I know there are some people out there who participated in every gifting since 2014, and as a consequence have maxed all the credit sinks and still have loads of credits, but the majority of players haven't done that. Personally, I've gotten tens of millions of credits from 2018 and 2019 gifting alone, but my 2018 credits ran out in September 2019 and I spent 9 mil on credit sinks after this season's gifting. Keep in mind, I still have 20 mil to go before I max the sinks! I still have about 6 mil left, but thanks to all the weapons that are being released with high price tags, those credits are disappearing fast. I probably won't even make it to July if we continue at this rate, and I'm pretty sure I've received more credits from gifting than the majority of players.

Having a new element to wars or giftings would be nice, but I don't think making it credit-based is sustainable. Gifting is by far the best way to get credits, but it's still not enough for most people due to the massive credit inflation we've seen over the last 3 years or so.
