The problem with that is that if someone lightnigs your center ad then they only have to deal with an exposed ad a two star, but of you had them triangulated or had two in the middle then worst case scenario you would have one centered ad, which is significantly better. If you can't triangulate them at least have two of them centered.

At higher levels, most people iwth air attacks take rage, not 3 lightning though, and 2 centered would leave 1 incredibly offcentered and nowhere in an optimal position, it would also ruin the symmetry of the base, but what would you change?

I would disagree with dragons, but your right I don't think I've ever seen a balloonion raid primarily bring lightnings. Even with rage it would be better to have two covering your core than have 1 attacking at all times. Why? If you have them there then you would have twice the firepower protecting what really matters, there's really no chance that you are going to win against either balloonions or drags so you might as well try to prevent a 2 or 3 star.

I would put the northern most cannon where the ad is, put the ad where the bk is except push both ads to the edge of the core, and put the bk where your low level gold storage is. No matter where you put your Bk he is going to be lurable when he wanders, so you might as well make it so you can't lure the cc and bk at the same time. Moving the cannon to the ad's place would still make it so that things would path over the area where you currently have your traps/hidden teslas, and since it is a trophy base and the storage is low level having it on the outside like your elixir storages shouldn't matter.

I thought about the same solution, but most my bases also work on the succes of BK, him walking around takes quite long, for about 7/8th of his round, he can not be lured, so the attacker either waits very long, giving him less attack time, or decides quickly on my base, and doesn't plan out greatly and fails the attack, BK wrecks troops like giants, hogs a bit too when the herd has been emptied a bit

Anyone else want to give their opinion on this base?
