Hello, my name is chum, and I'm a proud elder of the clannabis family. I made a base for mid to end TH8 farmers. I am currently constructing the trophy hunting version, but that's for later. This is the TH8 ring-around vault (farming version):

Right now I'm prioritizing gold and dark elixir protection, but you can switch around the storages if you like.

Features of this Base:

Centralized Clan Castle
-Can only be pre-lured from hogs or balloons
-Clan castle with 25 archers is 25 DPS

Simple but effective funneling
-Giants will target defenses in outer ring first (unless wall breakers are used to break in further)

Protecting 2 gold storages, an elixir storage, and DE storage in center vault
-Center vault takes 3 layers to get into

Spawn point pushed back by 3 squares or more
-All buildings in range of defenses

Wizard tower, tesla, or both protecting every storage

A wall breaker would have to travel 14 squares to break into the center from flat sides
-Wallbreaker would need to travel 9 squares to break into center from corner sides

No X junctions (well duhh)

Almost symmetrical (one wall off)

Top Defense: Town Hall Snipe
Middle Defense: Town hall Snipe with trying to get 50%
Bottom defense: Repeat

^All defenses here are Town hall snipes or the repeat from below.^

Top Defense:

Broke into first layer, then took out mortar. Sends out cc to take out TH. Sends about 20 minions which all died from air bomb. Sends giants that split in the first layer. Sends goblins that also splits in 1st layer. A couple of them make it to elixir storage.

Middle defense:

Attacker spammed giants in the bottom corner, then using 10 wbs, broke into the first to layers. BK kills all the giants. Then attacker sends in a bunch of barbs and archers and takes out town hall... All the T1 troops die off, as the opposing King take out half of elix storage.

Bottom defense:

dropping trophies

I apologize for the fine print, but I have had issues before where people stole my base.

I own any and all pictures posted on this thread by me or by people on the list above. OP of pictures get 1st rights, and I (and others on the list) get second rights. You have no right to use any pictures whatsoever on any other thread that you or anyone else creates unless you have my approval. You however, do have the right to use this base for yourself, but you can not claim it as your own work unless you make a significant change to this base. Moving the town hall, storages, decorations, obstacles, and/or outside trash buildings alone does not apply to a significant change. Outside trash buildings include but are not limited to Gold Mines, Elixir Collectors, Dark Elixir Drill(s), Barracks, Dark Barracks, Laboratory, and/or Spell Factory. I decide whether the change is significant enough.

Very nice thread! Any Battle logs?

Not yet, I will add in them as I get attacked. The base is currently being beta tested. If anyone is interested in testing this base as well, I'd appreciate it!

This base is really cool! Nice informational thread, the only prob is that wall breakers can detonate the second layer and the funneling has no use. Otherwise, nice job!

made it into first page :3

The funneling still gets some use. Typically someone would send all the giants, break a layer, the giants split, and then they send the second wave of wbs. But yes, the funneling effect would be sliced in half. Thank you for your feedback!

is this good for anti hog for masters

Not many Town Hall 8s could win defenses in Masters, but it is anti hog. I didn't make a Trophy Base yet, but it should be up tomorrow.

Could anyone do this for TH 7?I would be great ful.
