The Roundhouse: A Unique TH 8 Anti-Hog base with a Practically Unlurable Clan Castle!

[maculhet]

1 problem i see is the gb is pretty easy to test since it is in the first layer of the base

[Bwandowando]

I got 2-starred already today while using the Roundhouse 2 v.1

Attacking army mainly consists of lvl5 giants, wizards, and wallbreakers, spells were rage and heal.

The CC is in the middle so the TH got sniped by wizards after the outer layers were destroyed

Anyway, my defenses arent maxed yet, im a middle-tier TH8

[Bwandowando]

I'm not maxed th8, lvl 5 ad, but also easily 3 stared by lvl 3 dragons with healing spells, probably didn't need the spells. I guess not enough to distract them.

It did very well against giant/healer, 52% 1 star.

I have been mass drags 2x already with using this base layout and i was never 3-starred... Yet

Sorry, forgot to include this was for V3.0 beta, for both myself and the post I was replying to.

Here are a couple logs

I've been using this as my war base the entire time I've been an th8 and I war constantly and I'm almost done with th8 now. I have been 3-starred once by mass dragons, and two starred only 3 times. I find it's not hard for attackers to get 1 star on me, but typically my base doesn't get attacked at all.

Ground attacks typically go one of two ways:

1) Giants and support troops all get released on the bottom left, run in a circle and eventually die. Attacker picks off enough buildings on the outside to get 1 star.

2) Giants/support troops get released on the bottom left in two stages. One to break the anti-hog ring, and the second to punch through to my TH. This typically gets them two stars.

Air attacks... they almost always come at me from the bottom with mass drags. To be honest, it seems kind of random whether they will 1, 2, or 3 star. It seems to depend more on the dragon's sometimes unpredictable AI than anything done by the user, including spell placement. My one 3 star was by level 2 dragons coming from the bottom, but I also had a 1-star by level 3 dragons employing an almost identical attack.

Which is the best?
What version will do the best in wars?

[Bwandowando]

still using version 2 variation 1 and i believe i can now say that this base is VERY susceptible to Giants + wallbreakers

after being attacked by armies with giants multiples times, the funneling doesn't work and the giants just run straight to the nearest tower, tanking all hits, with WB's blowing my walls, take note, that i have around 50% skulls and im around 60% complete in my TH8 journey. Max AD's, max mortars, max WT's, lvl 9 AT's, lvl 9 cannons, and i get 2-starred by TH7 armies with lvl 4 giants (WHUT?!).

Anyway, on the good side of things, this base is very resistant to mass drags and hogs

im switching to another base layout this weekend.

Thank you for the layout.

IMPORTANT: BETA v3.1 is out! I corrected the traps issue and fixed the walls. Due to the structure of the base i recommend it as a Clan war only base. But you can try it for pushing at your own risk

P.S. Can somebody move this thread to the new bases sub forum? Thanks
