The Tempest: A TH8 Base Design (2 Formations)

[Syler28]

Ok, so I think my new modification will work out a lot better. Before if someone attacks with giants near the openings, they would after the cannon and than to wizard tower, where instead it should be cannon to archer. Now they will make a complete circle around the base due to the replacement of the wizard tower with the storage's. Let me know what you think.

Very good your modification.

You can send your replay?

Only replay I have so far is a x205 archer lvl 6 defense. The guy got 20% with no loot, just a 70k elixir.

Rooted my Nexus 7 and got a display recorder today, and then got a pretty funny defense replay right after. Here it is (the audio sounds bit strange because had to record the speaker output with built in mic):



Worked pretty well, I'll try to zoom in a bit more next time but didn't want to jostle the mic

Ouch Tempest, just looked you up as I was following this thread really close love the layout and the funnels, but did you just get taken for 88+ %

If so how come, looks like they came in from the east side and went into the core from the north?

Using the farming base, I tried to move around the storages in order for the loot to be more protected, without messing with the defences too much and destroy the funneling...
Thoughts? do you think that the tesla in the bottom left corner may cause trouble and lead the giants towards the wizard tower instead of the archer tower on the north?

Moved two collectors beneath the archer towers to ensure funneling and moved things around a bit to try and have triangular positioning, while keeping the loot as protected as possible.
I will test it overnight
What do you think?

Looks a like satisfying defence! Nice

Chris, I can't see the image, but I will look ingame for you

I changed my base to your new layout

See what happened hehe

Great, I'm glad you fixed the hole ahaha, worked like a charm. And thanks for another vid

I used the revamped trophy base and i got 100% by 100 archers 100 barbs and 10 wb and bk/aq 1 rage . They attacked from the top left broke in the left compartment then broke into wiz compartment then broke into the core... twas all downhill from there

Hmm, I'm really not sure how that could happen to any TH8 base with protected splash damage though :/

Wall breakers would be the demeanor to the idea to open the walls on the bottom of the base. Otherwise well put together!

Thanks! But I assume any base with a centre compartment would be breached by heap so wall breakers. Currently on the south it would require quite a few to break in.

Perfect!! I will put this to testing immediately! Thanks Syler
Only 1 issue though. By having a closed cannon, giants need to be quite close to the funnel to go through it. I tested it with a closed cannon last night, and giants had gone for a wall instead.

No its fine! Thank you for the video, very enjoyable to watch such an army diminish. I can see from the video that the slight change I updated makes the side funnel work!

19 lvl 6 giants + lvl4 healer broke in the bottom left, before deploying some lvl 5 hogs with healing spells. BK and AQ went around trashing everything else. I believe my base had done all it could against such an army! And you are correct 89%. Not being 3 starred is an achievement for a TH8 base I guess.


Thank you all for the feedback! Keep on with the replays, as they truly help me find out any flaws.

Orz, I had the same issue, but it was because of the wizard tower behind it. The range was closer than the archer tower. Now it should be better or I hope so. I am still waiting for someone to get a real attack on the base

[Orz]

Both bases have been updated with a major change!

Thanks to the suggestions, this change should help immensely.
