Chance to harvest opponents' obstacles if you 100% their base.

I think you'd hate this idea yourself when TH9s consistently wreck your base and steal all your vegetation.

Supercell already gives out way more free gems than we deserve. The constant greed for receiving something for nothing is appalling.

Did you read any part of this thread before posting? A. The mechanic would be disabled if you're attacking below your town hall to prevent abuse. B. This feature would not involve Supercell adding any free gems to the game's economy. The same gems that have always been there in obstacle form would flow from player to player in small increments.

Sorry if this has been suggested before. I read all the stickies and searched quite extensively for similar posts to no avail. I am referring to his posts as hardly constructive due to the narrow minded attitude that comes through in his responses. I understand now that people care about their trees.

From a more practical side than simply caring about their trees, obstacles can be used as a fairly effective defense. If you take the time to cultivate them around the edge of the map, then build a base that presses up against them you can prevent attackers from dropping strings of troops. They end up in several small clumps between the trees. This makes mortars, wiz towers, bombs and such more effective. Even madness can be seasoned with reason.

That's actually a really cool mechanic I was not aware of. Learn something new every day... thanks!

I can see how this may seem good. it would be easier to ask Supercell for more attack achievements. the same objective is achieved with less harm to clash of clans ecosystem, already plagued by village growth and gem farming.
