A Town Hall 9 Town Hall 8
So, I've come up with crazy idea that I think will be interesting. So I will go to TH9 when I max TH8 which shouldn't take too much time. So my plan is really weird for TH9. I'm not going to get any new buildings (apart from a few) when a get TH9 and just upgrade what all I already have to the max for TH9. With exceptions of heroes and walls. Only then I will get the new TH9 goodies and change my base.
The only new buildings I will get at beginning of new TH9 are
-AQ
-DE Drill
-Elixir Storage
-Walls
-Traps
As of now, I'm in about Gold 2 climbing to Gold 1, possibly crystal. 99% of the time its a quick TH snipe and go, they don't even try to go for my semi-protected elixir storage (which is behind just 1 layer of walls and next to an L-Junction).
So, the only new people that I can really expect to be attacked by more severely are by TH9s and TH10s since they can steal more from me. However, I've only been getting TH sniped, cuz I'm blowing all my gold on walls, nobody cares much about my elixir and DE is protected too well. I use the Pokeball base.
Here is my plan for beginning of TH9:
Elixir: Max all the upgrades ASAP as soon as I get TH9, excluding new TH9 gold storage; both lab and buildings.
DE: Just work on heroes until elixir lab upgrades are maxed. Will do lvl 5 minions earlier though. Then max all my DE troops.
Gold: Work on mortars and wizard towers to lvl 7 first. After, get all the new traps and upgrade all my existing traps to max TH9 lvl. (Bomb to 6, SAM to 2, AB to 4)Then get the TH9 walls, upgrade them to lvl 8. Then work on upgrading them to lvl 9 then lvl 10 until DE lab upgrades are finished. Probably wont max walls b4 then.
After that, I will get the TH9 new buildings and stuff. Yes, I'm holding off on X-Bows. Nor do I care about sleeping builders.
So how do you guys think it will work out? Will everyone be going after my storages 24/7 or will it be the same as TH8? Keeping same base layout FYI, just throwing in and out a couple of buildings.
