Moa shows up in meta teams replacing random troops and we get extra traitstone for killing it

From what i understand: It seems like the system will exchange one troop of each defense for a Moa for this supposed “Thanks Giving Event”, but if a player use a team with four Moas then, the attacker will also get four extra Traitstones, one for each Moa after victory.

Not sure if this will be considered an exploit…

I’ve put four Moas on my defense and suddenly i see 4 Moas as options to attack.  
Not gonna keep this defense or kill 4 Moas just to play safe…

@Cyrup or @Ozball any input on this?

My initials thoughts is that’s it’s a Easter egg planted by the devs for thanks giving. After all, moa is a turkey isn’t he.

It is indeed a nice event, it also brings up some comic relief with the memes with _aussie_ historical fact “The Great Emu War”:

Okay guys, please explain. 🙃  
I have to set my defence to 4 moas for invaders to earn more traitstones?  
And must hope to encounter several myself when invading?

Not exactly, i just happened to find 4 Moas more frequently after leaving my defense just like that for a while.  
You will have more people attacking you and be offered revenge against them increasing the chances that one of them is also using 4 Moas and become you Rival, which also increases the Glory for beating such player.
