They take 1m to build, no big deal.

I'd say mortars would be a good upgrade. focus on splash damages and also wizard towers. i guess it depends on how ur base is designed, that you can decide which of the two would be best to upgrade first.
Sounds like you are rolling on as a TH8!
That is a good rate to upgrade, two cannons/archer towers and two Teslas. One other point, lvl 9 archer towers and lvl 10 cannons, combined with max splash is very intimidating! Plus the archer towers are just cool looking!
how are you doing with the skull walls? I have only been able to get 22 so far.takes forever to upgrade those.
keep up the good work, and I look forward to TH9 upgrade strat. Really want those dual crossbows. One point for 9 is too upgrade camps or lab. Camps give an extra 10% to all armies, vs camps just up one troop.
start the th9 upgrade in around 50 days.
:O
Great plan DO IT!
:D
Things have been going well yes, thanks for the kind words. ;) Not looking forward to the tesla, archer and AD grind... Yeah gold cannons make me think twice before I attack, but a good TH9 army with archer queen don't even worry about that lol.
Have done 77 skull walls so far, almost half way, should be done by mid-July by my calculations, I hope.
I think I have about 2 months left for everything to be maxed, have not planned that far ahead. I know all my defenses, except AD will be maxed out by end June, then just barracks, dark barracks and mines/pumps.
Done and busy. :):p
Great thread. You guys are ahead of me, so I'd love to know if you saw more swarm attacks or giant attacks? I ask because I want to do beancounter's "all 3 mortars simultaneously" approach (good against swarms), but am also tempted to pay 4m for all 5 cannons at once (good against giants).
Also, was the DE drill worth prioritizing? Seems easy enough to get DE from raiding, but perhaps it's more difficult at TH8...
In the beginning I got hit by mostly TH9's with Archer Queens, coming to steal some gold, this was while all my splash was upgrading. Their mix was the typical giant/wallbreaker/archer/barb combo.
I would rather try to stagger your builders, starting them all of on the same day on cannons will have them finish on the same day, meaning a lot more resources for the next upgrades, also 3 days without builders is a long time when just starting off TH8. I staggered my builders on day 1 so I had time to collect resources for walls when the builders finished (check my spreadsheet for day 1 upgrades).
Regarding DE, hell yes! 1080 DE a day is worth it in the long run. 30 days after drill finished it's 32400 DE I did not have to farm - busy upgrading my barbarian king to lvl7 now by the way, was lvl2 when I started TH8. Farming DE at TH8 is the easy part, it gets difficult to hold onto it once you reach >17000 DE in your storage, that's when the TH9's start hitting you!! If it weren't for my splash, imo, I would have lost a lot more.
Good luck. ;)
See the link to my latest planning sheet. I will give an update and make some changes to the OP over the weekend.

Hey, Rynoster we are both pretty much at the same point. Lvl 75 here too. My archer towers are farther along, but your teslas are a level ahead of me. And we are both upgrading dragons to three. Lol
I am not sure i want to boost the second dark barracks. It is very time intensive. My first will start upgrading to four this Saturday.
Lastly, if I can tuff out the lab upgrades I will finish my th9 upgrade on aug 2. But I may blow off the last two rages levels and shoot for July 20th.
Keep it up
