Anybody need any clash advice?

Thanks.

So,
I have 66 lvl 9 walls and the rest are lvl 10.
1) do you suggest upgrading the TH when I reach to 50 remaining walls?

Regrettably, my heroes are teens, BK: 16, AQ: 15.
2) Should I stay at TH 9 and upgrade them or upgrade the TH when I finish or about to finish my walls to lvl 10.

thanks again.

Ok here are my thoughts on the matter: I think staying at a lower town hall just to grind out heroes doesn't make any sense. When you upgrade to a higher townhall, you have more defenses to guard your DE and protect your base. You also get stronger troops and more spells which can help you get to that DE collector in the core of most bases. The main reason not to go to a higher townhall is the loot penalty. With that in mind, the loot penalty only applies to town halls which are 2 levels under you. Since it's very unlikely that you will be stealing DE from TH7s or TH8s, the loot penalty wont effect you. That's my reasoning for upgrading rather than grinding out heroes at TH9.
However, the loot penalty will apply to walls, so I wouldn't tell you to rush to TH10. My opinion on the matter, which I give to most people, is that if you're bored, go up. If you don't mind grinding them out, then stay down there. Either way, you should be fine to go to TH10 now, and like I said above, I definitely wouldn't stay down there for the heroes.

Ok, so I put a troop on to research, but then I upgraded my lab, will my troops continue to research whilst my lab upgrades, meanwhile, I attacked for 2* on my first war attack on a previously unattacked base, then got 3* on a previously 2* base, how many war stars will I get added to my achievements.
Plus, could I not have just used 11 EQ Spells to take down the Town Hall, or upgraded my EQ Spell first & used 3 to take out the walls, whilst stacking my haste & Rage Spells..........???��

Thanks, Confused by Clash.

Ok I'm quite sure that the research will stop until the lab is upgraded, but I'm honestly not positive.
3 stars will show up on your achievement. Only stars that are added to the war will show up.
I'm not exactly sure what the last question is asking, but I think it's been figured out that you can't take down a TH will just earthquakes, but don't quote me on that.
Edit: Yeah you can't take it down with just spells. Most effective is 9 earthquakes and 1 lightning, but it will still be standing

WoW,
Didn't think about any this. Thanks for your golden pieces of advice.

So, I'm a bit rushed 8.75 (th9 minus xbows), all skulls, 48 Lego's and 6 lavas. Lvl 12 BK and lvl 11 AQ. My lab and builder times to max are almost identical with 4 builders (I have 5).

I'm completely bored with the game and have almost 0 drive to log in and even farm.

How do I fix this?

I haven't got my DE collector in the centre of my base,only my storage,is this wrong?
Are you definitely sure about that Loot penalty, sure it only applies 2 THs down??

Lastly, could you please explain how "the Loot penalty will apply to walls" ???

Well if you don't feel like farming then try something else. Try pushing. It can be fun to see how high you can go. You can try dropping down to 0 cups and seeing how quick you can get them back up. Try out new attack strategies that you'd never use. I got to a point myself where I could either grind out max walls by farming, or do something else. I chose the latter because farming raids just lost their appeal to me. For some reason people have a very specific mindset on how this game should be played. They think you have to max everything before you do anything else, or the world will explode. I went to TH 10 with purple walls and level 8 archer towers, and now I'm in one of the best clans in the world. This game is supposed to be fun, so don't worry about doing what you're "supposed to do". Go to TH10 now if you feel like it. Just try something different and see if the spark comes back.

hehe... nope it keeps going.

3 stars will show up on your achievement. Only stars that are added to the war will show up.

hehe... nope if you increase the stars for your team all will be added to your achievement.

yep.... 1 outta 3 aint bad

As a TH8.5, what defenses do you focus on upgrading? Just in general, thanks!

No no no, you're right. I meant to say DE storage. I was just typing fast. Yes, I'm positive about the loot penalty thing. As a TH10 if you raid a TH9 there is a tiny 10% loot penalty, but being able to obliterate that base with TH10 troops is worth that small price.
When I say the loot penatly applies to walls, all I mean is that they are upgraded with gold and elixer. TH 8s can actually have a decent amount of those two things, so the loot penalty would affect that a lot more than it would to the small amount of DE they would have
