Probably because that's where your gold storage is.

Hello this is my cousins base, please rate/tip it :D

Any hints/tips what to do next?

I'm a newish th7, having fun trying out a few interesting base ideas. This one is mostly for farming. The CC isn't centralized, but at least a couple of camps/barracks delay the release. Each mortar covers its neighbor, and the "50-yard line" is meant to be very tough to cross.
So far it's stood up well, but it hasn't really seen a very strong attack yet. What do you guys think?
I cannot take screenshot with my app. if anyone would mind taking a shot of mine and posting it here (that's ok, i give you permission... in fact i'm more requesting lol)
that would be cool to have some advice.
Thx!

thx everyone and anyone who does it (post screen shot)
Yeah, but it's defending one elixir storage. If you move it to where nathan was talking about it's defending a gold and an elixir storage. Or put another way, where it is now also has an AT helping defend. The new spot has no AT to help defend. You basically are spreading your defenses out better.
If the corner piece is destroyed in an X junction, attacking troops gain access to 3 new compartments. If the corner piece of a T junction is destroyed, attacking troops only gain access to 2 new compartments.
He means that the mortars are all up towards the top. You want even coverage with your mortars, which means placing them around the base in a more or less equilateral triangle shape.
Also, I'm not a huge fan of the spring trap placements. In general you want them where troops will likely path. When you put them up against walls like that, it's more random as to whether they will be triggered or not. A good strategy is to place them between defenses so giants or hogs will likely trigger them. Alternatively, if you were targeting gobs you would want them between two resource buildings.

I would like to see feedback and tips for my base, I would like to see cons and pros, thanks.
I took your advice and stopped upgrading my town hall and made a new base. This is town hall level 7 hybrid defense\farming. I noticed the X junction I made but I am unsure what to do as of it.

If four walls are connected (x-junction), then one broken wall will open up all four compartments.
I just meant that the mortars aren't evenly spread.
This basically sums it up. :)
Im not exactly sure what you could do. It's a decent base, but the loot is a bit bunched.
Most of it looks good though.

First time making a base. Any inputs are appreciated. Good or bad. Thank you for your time :)
Any suggestions on the improvement part? Thank you for the reply also!:)

Do you want mainly saving your trophies or your resources?
The clan castle isn't centralized, it is very easy to lure.
and there are mostly X-junction, it is very easy to reach the core. In my opinion you should make a new base or just copy a TH 7 base. If you decide to design a new base, look for some good TH 7 base to inspire you.
Hows this? It's my own circleish base.
http://i58.tinypic.com/28cghgn.jpg
Alright. I'll try to get a new layout and figure something out. As of right now my resources are more important than trophies. So if you guys have any suggestions please throw them my way.
Also I like your circular-ish layout Nathan.
Now mine, but id love some feedback (im not th9 but I did design it)
http://i.imgur.com/W75p1QX.jpg
Real quick, since in my defence replays, i've never seen my Barbarian King attack, does it really matter where I put him and ifh e's protected and such?
Works for me, thanks. In the process of trying to re-organize my base now. I see the problem with my last layout so just trying to fine a better one. I can't seem to find a place for my 3rd Mortar and one more cannon.
Alright how about this one?
http://i209.photobucket.com/albums/b...ngel/Maybe.jpg
Alright will do. Works for me, thanks. :D
Not currently a th 8, but thought id test my building skills and make a base.
This is TH 8 farming, gold and dark.
If its bad, im not the best designer thanks

didnt notice i had 1 too many buildings inside of first layer haha
pertend i put one on the outside and sectioned off the corner building
Any thoughts or improvements? Can be farming or trophy base.

Here is my latest TH7 base.. Almost done upgrading splash atm. Seem to be attacked most from the bottom by hogs based armies... Which i stand no chance against
http://i1343.photobucket.com/albums/...ps3d105d54.png
This is my TH6 base. I'm finishing off my 2nd mortar as you can see, and then going to upgrade my Wizard Towers, then my Barracks and a few other things before going to TH7. Just wondering if there's any improvements to be made. :rolleyes:
http://i909.photobucket.com/albums/a...psnni0l75t.png
You want to protect your elixir, right?
The Clancastle isn't centralised.
What I also don't like are the junctions and the northern part. If you attack from the north you have only to break through 2 walls to reach the core with the elixir storages (wall breakers doesn't attack "empty" compartments).
If you always get 3-starred drop trophies. With your defence levels it is difficult to farm in gold 2.
Thanks, a few notes.
I rarely have anything in clan castle so its waisting space in the center. I have tried centered and not with little difference. I based the current layout of another base. I will most likely place TH outside and move cc back into the base somewhere. Funny thing is even though the top looks weaker and the preferred place to attack every attack starts at the bottom where once in 90% of the giants get hit by the spring traps moving from defense to defense. I have only been 3 starred and 2 starred once by hog armies. otherwise I'm not getting 3 starred at all...
I will most likely change bases soon anyway...

Any pointers? I'm just about to upgrade my wizard tower in this screenshot. Next is walls.
The clan castle isn't centralized
The town hall won't be sniped often
the king isn't centralized. He might just as well be switched with a collector
It's a bit open, but I think that's how you want it
overall 6.5/10
after you fix these things, maybe a 7.5/10
PS. IMO, with the way you have it set up, I think having both elixirs in the middle is ok.
The junctions are exposed on the sides, but it's hard not to do that at town hall 6
i would switch a gold storage with an elixir storage, so they're alternating, and even
The clan castle isn't centralized, but that's ok at town hall 6-

Overall it's great! 8.5/10
Thanks! I just alternated the storages. As far as the CC, I often use troops whilst attacking and find my castle empty most of the time so it felt like a priority to have my air defence in the middle to put off Healer Giant strategies. I'll look for where I can move the traps. :)
Thanks, Ive been playing around with things over the last week and just got my king last night.
TBH, TH will most likely go back outside the base as mentioned before 99.9999% of attack come from bottom. Also why keep an empty CC in the middle? Same with a LV1 king? Thanks
Its hard not to want to use a recognized TH7 base but they have all been so used and the weaknesses are exploited. Might try making from scratch again tonight.
How about this
http://i1343.photobucket.com/albums/...pshrubpvxn.png
I like the overall shape of your base! Perhaps spread out the traps a lot more, it is too overpowered in that bottom area. Also, I would switch your BK and DE storage with your two gold storages on the outside, for more protection, and more important protection to be honest. Great job with your splash coverage, looking good! 8.5/10
Thanks guys, The point was to use the emptier of the storages as meat shield with the high hp... But i moved a few things so how about now? I don't see how i can remove anymore X junctions... Could you elaborate..

I just make bases for fun, I don't really change mine as I'm currently using the Pokeball base. Just wanted to see how my base-making skills are.

How's my base looking?
Btw, this is my first time posting on the forums, so I still don't know how to use all of this well.
I feel like this is the best version so far?
http://i1343.photobucket.com/albums/...psbeesk32f.png
The traps are better
there are still some x junctions
overall its a bit better i think
I would alternate the storages (switch one gold with one elixir)
the mortars are exposed
the ADs are exposed
some t junctions are exposed
overall 6.5/10
Welcome to the forums!
There are a few x junctions
Overall the walls aren't placed that well
the clan castle isn't centered
overall 6.5/10
There are still x junctions
i would switch the elixir with the WTs
overall 7.5/10
good call on the elixir and wt, didn't even see that possibility. Doesn't every base have X junctions? I find it hard to eliminate them...
Will do... so far one TH sniper since conception..
Edit. So after review my main x junctions were in the core correct? So I made an alteration. I hope its better the have wt in the larger pocket while keeping ad in a closed pocket making it harder for giants ect.. Also I dislike the uneven amount of cannons which is throwing me off. Should I keep then how I had, ie grouped top and bottom or place 1 by each storage like this?
http://i1343.photobucket.com/albums/...psnjxmjeyd.png
Or This? These are the last 2 version and I'm unsure which to use? I prefer the last because of being even..
http://i1343.photobucket.com/albums/...psmrgrusvn.png
My sole purpose with this base was to save my dark elixir i worked so hard to build up. I am trying to max defenses at th8 and made a big mistake in building up too much de with still weeks of tesla upgrades to go. Any advice on a base with a sole purpose of saving de from those th9 aq bk attacks?
i made the cc and barb king lurable from the bottom in hopes of most attacks starting from there and then used most my traps and bombs down there. Works sometimes....other times not so much
thanks
Those are definantly better! I would use the second one, but make a few minor tweaks...
I'm not quite sure how to explain this, but I will try my best. First, go into edit mode and remove the mortars, WTs and ADs. Next, place two mortars where the ADs were, and the third mortar where the current mortar is (top right). Next, put the WTs where the two mortars used to be, and the ADs will go where the WTs used to be.
it looks great- 8.5/10
Thanks. Please note that i'm still catching my new defenses up to th7 when looking at my defense logs :)
http://forum.supercell.net/showthrea...esign-UPDATING
First, great job on your base, very advanced for a lvl 86 was it? Anyhow, you deserve it, and the base looks pretty good.
I would protect the DE storage a bit more by possibly making a more intricate moat on the top side of the base, not having an effect on influencing attacks either, so that can put them in a gutter.
Also, possibly focus more on your storage protection? Start upping your TH once your teslas finish, and once it gets inside 4 days, make sure you got 6 mil gold and 40k de...for the AQ. Will help a lot to instantly start both your xbows and aq....that's what I did.
8/10 on the base. It could use some tweaks, but looks well to work with.
Pretty sure I understand. Thoughts on switching the top right motor with bk to cover the lower region better?
http://i1343.photobucket.com/albums/...psblzlyhfe.png
Rodger that. Will try it out after shield runs out. So far just one Th snipe again. Around 90 lv5 or 6 archers and they didn't do more than 8/9% from bottom.
Thanks. I do see similarity's to pokeball after readings juns thread. However I just built from scratch and am super ocd about symmetry so naturally I think it evolved to look like pokeball :) I gueaa depending on how full storage is I can always swap de with gold based off that. Only option for teslas is to place one up top mirror to the one on bottom. Again I have to have symmetry lol. Thanks m8
You should switch the air defense with a middle cannon. And if you want, i wood reccomend that u put ur wizard tower where the mortar is. That would make ur storages really nicely protected. put the mortar either where the other midddle cannon is. all my opinion, hope u have a good time with ur base.
i rate that 8/10
Thanks for for the kind words Jacksonian. Im really excited to move up to th9 and have the de to start the aq right away. Same with gold for x bows. Need to stop the bleeding soon! :). I think i will try and isolate the de in its own little box safe from wizards and archers. When the aq comes I'll just hand over the de and ask for a charitable donation receipt.
I would appreciate any help designing or being pointed in the direction of a base that is made solely for protecting de at the th8 level. I posted my base earlier but i am sure we can come up with something much better than that. The purpose of this base is for the time while the town is upgrading and i will be sitting on substantial dark, for the archer queen, to have at my disposal when the town hall is done. I know nothing is perfect and th9s with good troops and plans will always have a shot at it. But i want to at least try. Thanks for any input.
Here are a few similar ideas. After I made it I realized it looked similar to junliang's battleship. These aren't perfect. I'm not sure how they will do, but I thought they might help.

thanks very much. I do like the look of these bases. The bottom one might suit me a little better since i have all three teslas down for the next 26 days and need something to slow people down going after that gold with archers. I think ill give this a shot. Thanks again
I made this base for my mom a while ago. How is it? I keep trying to tell here to move the traps away from the town hall, but she won't listen. :p
http://i59.tinypic.com/2a7ebzm.jpg
Your mom clashes?! Lol. Anyways, I see that you are trying to funnel at the north and south cannons, which is always a good idea. But if someone had giants, WBs, and gobs, they could use the giants for destractions and use the WBs to crack open that mini vault, more giants and then gob it up and hit 2 storages, one of each main resource (4 if they somehow get the north storages; 2 of each main resource).

Alright... Second try.
http://i57.tinypic.com/1z34bj9.jpg I copied the wrong one last time.
http://i59.tinypic.com/2d7bvr7.jpg Is this any better? I centered the CC more.
Should I just use a Pokeball or one ring?
How can I make and keep few million in elixir and dark. C cuz I am battling. But seems even at one. Hund. K I'm not progressing the way I had hoped. I use barbs. And giants only. With few wall breakers. And am mostly successful. But. My recources. Seem to continue to dwindle..... I am. BABY FACE.... OF CALICHE CLAN. black and white. If you would like to look. See. And help me with some advice
