Doesn't help when I got looted by 8 people in the matter of 10 minutes before the shield went up.....

Whenever i get home and see who attacked me it seems like there is just a string of attack after attack until one finally breaks through... oh well, I gain points overall.

Attacks take something like 10-20% of what is in your storages, and 50% of what is in your collectors.

What I found is the best way to protect your resources if you don't care about trophies is to sacrifice your TH outside your walls. People will raid you for a 1:s: victory and not touch any of your loot, and then you get a 12H shield. Any trophies I lose from 1:s: raid I can make back up and then some once I log on.

I may try that... also, putting the TC outside could open up some wall options i currently do not have.

Didn't even think of that. I'll have to try it.

Can not wait until I have enough wall for the defense I actually want...

This is also very true. The TH being 4x4 really messes stuff up with interior space planning as it doesn't mesh with the 3x3 units well if trying to pack it in tight.

Went and deleted this evil off my ipad last night after the wife got a litttle mad about it LOL. Just thought I'd share this after my previous misguided comments.

Yep - I was playing about 2 months go and every time my wife asked me a question I couldn't answer. She threatened a dry spell - I quit Clash of Clans.

Heh. My wife is on a "must get pregnant" tear so I'm dry spell immune.

Lol. Yeah I have avoided this game ... not because I don't want to play it, but because I want to use my relationship capital on something else. I've found the best way is to save it up for football season.

Oh man, I remember that tear ... when they want to be pregnant they want to be pregnant IMMEDIATELY don't they? It's almost frightening single-mindedness.

My wife thinks you guys are a bad influence. I did my husbandly duties and now it's two hours of Oblivion and Clash of Clans.

You could have squeezed in another 5 minutes of Oblivion by skipping husbandly duties

Once you get to the point where upgrades take days, you can back off playing a little.

This. Game slows down to a nice comfortable pace haha. I usually log in twice a day to collect resources and do a raid as my 12H is close to coming down. Total non-secondary-to-also-watching-TV play time is maybe 10 minutes a day.

When your girlfriend wants to watch Kardashians, the iPad and specifically Clash of Clans is a lifesaver.

Or "16 and Pregnant." Or "Teen Mom." Or "Real Housewives."

Shake are you trying to drop a hint.

Apparently there is some type of complex algorithm that SuperCell created to ward off spammers from clan hopping. I def don't want you all to boot an active member, but if you have some fat to trim...

I have level 3 drags :)

OK Bros how should I set myself up. I just randomly placed stuff just to manufacture money and elixir but now I want to get serious about defense.

  • What should be behind walls
  • How should walls be structured
  • What can I leave outside the walls and isn't mission critical
  • What else?

You want to put your town hall, defenses (such as cannons and archery towers), resource storage, and resource collectors behind walls. Probably in that order of priority.

You want to section off your buildings to the greatest extent possible and force your attacker to break through multiple levels of walls if possible.
