It's kind of ridiculous that archers can shoot over the walls to steal resources so I'm suggesting that the walls, in the higher levels, prevent projectiles (arrows/wizards) when upgraded to a set level. This will prevent lower level troops from gaining access to the inner sanctum via a wall breaker where they can shoot over the walls to steal resources. Maybe set it so that less and less projectiles get through as the level of the wall increases.
I have to admit, when I read the title..I thought.. This is going to be dumb.. But after reading your proposal, I have to somewhat agree. Being a TH10, some TH9s with lower level troops have finished off some of my collectors/storages with a really low level troop, and often over a wall.
It frustrates the hell out of me when tons of archers are released and they can shoot over the walls to loot resources and destroy defenses.
No way. The different types of troops (ranged, melee, flying, ground attacking, air attacking, defense targeting, resource targeting, air defense targeting, splash damage, single shot, regenerating, etc.) is what makes this game fun. You want to eliminate the ability of range troops just because you can't protect your loot better? I have lava and magma walls and it doesn't both me in the least that troops can shoot, jump, fly, or quake over them. That's what makes this a strategy game.Quote:

Maybe, but only if goblins can tunnel under walls.
Stealing resource by shooting arrows into it, or dropping lightning onto it, or breathing fire onto it, has always been ridiculous. It really threatens the ability to believe in the reality of the game being play.
Seriously, I do suggest, loot can only be stolen by goblins, but goblins can go under walls, with a small time delay for the digging.
I don't think making the walls preventive against ranged attacks is a good idea, due to the fact that it leads to disappointment of underdogs.
On the other hand, I think it is best to lower the cost of higher level walls, say, levels 10 and 11 by 1 million, with regard to the earthquake spell that decreased the protectablity of all walls regardless of their levels, making them less worthy, whatever the costs. Plus I have no idea why there is a a million gap between walls level 9 and 10, suddenly jumping from 1 million to 3 million.
Hope to catch your attention,
No it wouldn't because as archer level increases, their ability to shoot over walls increases.
Goblins wouldn't be affected at all. Making the walls higher won't make them any more difficult to penetrate so Wall Breakers and every other troop will get through in the same time. It just prevents an archer, an archer that probably can't even see over the wall, from hitting storages and stealing resources.
I agree with SharkyFinn, every troop is for a reason. If archers could not shoot above walls, what would be the reason of using archers when they deal less damage than barbarians of similar levels?
