What do you guys think is better for the base: Outside buildings moved as far out as possible to keep the spawn line far away, while allowing them to easily be sniped by well placed archers, OR have the buildings next to the outside walls and have the spawn line closer, but make them work to destroy them.
Also if it matters, I'm around 1800 trophies DE farming with my TH in the corner unprotected
I prefer close in and right against the base because it gives my defensive buildings more time to shoot, where as if they are pushed out usually the building isnt under protection of a defensive building.
I can see the benefit of pushing spawn back because it decreases troop deployment accuracy..I still prefer close in though.

Same, I like the spawn line close in.
Both have their merits, closer means more less buildings can be protected by defenses.
But pushed out makes life for wall-breakers much harder.
It depends on your walls, if you have high level walls (maxed out or 1 level lower) than you should put the nearer to the walls. However, if your walls are lower level put the collectors and what not farer away so that the Wallbreakers have a longer route to the wall.
"Close" to me means a defensive building can hit whatever's hitting it, which in some cases is pretty far.
I don't believe in giving free buildings...there's always a price. :D
Also, if I don't have a choice, buildings that don't produce resources are far enough away that no defensive buildings can protect it, e.g. spell factory, barracks.
If you are farming, put them far out, so enemies can get 50% easier and spawn line is pushed out. If you are trophy hunting put them in close to prevent the enemy from getting 50%
Yep, good damage control method.Quote:

unless you are running a single core vault (which is kinda outdated due to updated wb ai) defenitely keep them in defence range

Definitley close in for me. Not only does it give your defenses a longer time to react, but it also serves to make troops flow outside of your base in a merry-go-round fashion. Keeping them away from ur valuable ♥♥♥♥
I like to push the spawn line as far as possible.
Most attackers tend to be messed up with the wb deployment.
The wbs likely ended up OHK'ed by mortars.
And just like Baxtarius said, easier 50% lose that comes with shield ;)
It all depends on what type of base i am using and what troops people use against me (usually determined by the trophy range that i am in).
