A tip for farmers [Town Hall inside]

You people need to think outside the box! A TH doesn't have to be "inside" as in the middle, or "outside" at some corner somewhere.

I am going use the below picture as an example. See where he has his TH? It is being used as somewhat of a buffer. While 30 or 40 archers are busy trying to destroy it, one mortar blast will end their existence.

If you design your base correctly, it will only cost an additional two wall pieces to in-case it with walls. It will also cause people to waste wbs because it is a "trap" building and needs to be "liberated."

The point is: use the HP of the TH for some added protection/buffer for your main resources. While archers, barbs etc... try to destroy your TH, your other infantry i.e., mortars and x-bows will strike down and destroy your opponent. Put everything to use. When you go up against a real farmer/player, most often, they ignore your TH at the corner, and go for the true prize - your resources. The noobs can't get into your base regardless, so don't even worry about them.

The cheap shield is useless if you are an active farmer. Most farmers I know play daily, and break their shield almost the moment the get it.

Clash on!

With the th bonus th7 get attacking th9, the 'cheap' shield is almost essential nowadays.

that is unless you are fine with losing 5k+ dark elixir when you sleep as has happened to me.

if you do lightning dark elixir, please do take the town hall as well. It is only polite. ;)

Oh holy Jesus Growler... Tian's base is pretty sic. If I opened on him, I prolly would triple lightening his DE and run after leveling TH. I'm a farmer, not a hero. LOL. But I'd be growing more dark minions... Cuz they farm purty good after waxing the air defense and wizards. ;] I don't like losing cups. Call it a weakness.

Yeah, my shield drops as soon as I log... And my TH is actually inside the first wall layer with a trapped opening. Almost always have a single noob attack that activates shields as I gain trophies. At most 3 and I haven't been 3 starred since... I don't remember. But I'm old.

I'm a farmer, and I imagined it would be a fairly straightforward resource grab.

It messes with the new wall breaker ai, I would recommend it for someone struggling with a premature th9.

You are a regular comedian. I prefer the old "WB AI" to The new AI. At least you could count on a straight line.

It seems I am wasting my time. I guess it serves me right for trying to be helpful.

Have fun acting the village idiot.

TH outside is great.

TH as a "meat shield", whether it be inside walls or just on the side with more resources, is fine too.

I like watching replays and seeing people struggle to farm my base, but there is no way in hell it beats getting a free 12 hour shield and another potential noob to revenge-farm off of :p

Town hall outside is a free shield, but if you want to put your town hall inside, it's your choice.

That seems like a lot of totaly unnecessary work, but hey, if you wanna do it the stupied way then be my guest :)
