You don't actually believe that analogy works do you?

Here are some ideas (to be considered separately):

Loot-Based Decentive:

• Place more loot (that can be lost) in the TH
• Losing your TH gives a fraction multiplier increase for the amount of loot you can lose (e.g. 25% increase means that a gold storage that would otherwise give you 100,000 gold now gives you 125,000)

Building/Generation Decentive:

• After losing a TH, all generation/research either stops or is slowed down (e.g. 50%) until town hall is repaired--requires 1 worker working for TH level * multiplier (e.g. TH1 requires 2 minutes; TH5 = 10 minutes; TH10 = 20 minutes)
• After losing a TH, all generation/research either stops or is slowed down until town hall is repaired--requires a sizeable amount of gold and elixer to repair (tantamount to repairing traps)

Battle-Disadvantage Decentive:

• Making all building units, towers, and walls suffer 50% (halved) hp when the TH breaks
• Destroy x random towers
• Make towers attack at half-speed or half-power (or both)
• Give attacking army a haste/power/healing buff
• Or, introduce "Berserk" spells; players select 1 of many powerful berserk spells to bring to battle--which can turn the tide of war, but only become active if the town hall is destroyed (e.g. replenish some of your dispensed units so you can deploy them in the same battle [but these bonus units expire after the battle is over]; make your units invulnerable for x seconds; refresh your spell(s) for the duration of the battle; destroy x random towers; etc.

first of all, i din't read all coments, so someone might posted this allready. Second:?th exposed are a great boost to clash economy, since you can do it with your bb king/archer queen and win the league bonus. This sugestion will make everyone inclash poor, and not because of this people will push.

This is a balanced strategy that 100000000's of people use. Exchanging trophies for protection of your valuable resources. I honestly do not see the problem at the slightest. If you spend 100000gems on buying shields then it's your problem. This is possibly the worst idea for anything ever since the 3rd Reich goodbye.

Nope. Take the free trophies and be happy.

Only a sniper would offer up the ideas fife has. Maybe instead of 1000 per resource making it 5000 if the base has the resource available. But Nerfing the base based on a destroyed the TH is possibly the most idiotic request I've read recently.

I don't like to see any extra disincentives for exposed town hall. The guy who gets it receives trophies and a winning bonus. You'll have to get those trophies back eventually to stay in the proper range for your town hall. Keeping the townhall exposed is the best way to protect your resources; nothing wrong with how it works right now.

I think everyone has a different pride. My pride is my DE storage not the 4x4 square thing that get me free shield, and has no function at all.

Maybe you should change your mindset to think that your pride should be your DE storage. Reality is in real war, people go for the resources not the headquarter..That's why the US president has an Air Force One that can fly away leaving the Whitehouse open to be raided...

I don't even understand why this is an issue. Let the players build their respective bases anyway they want.
Should they build a silly, serious or troll base is none of our concern.
Should OP require a challenge then I suggest go to higher leagues and destroy them.
