By "know how to attack," we mean just attacking at all during a war. Unused war attacks are annoying as poo poo when losing.

Thats a nice Game 7 you have there. Would be a shame if somebody nailed it down.

Basically the same rule for WeBe. Just use your attacks and we'll give you what advice you need.

Is this the original game and Castle Clash is the spinoff? Or is it the other way around? Which game is better?

This game is the original I believe. Either way it's more well balanced. Castle Clash is heavy on the importance of the hero units, and the only way to reliably get good ones us to pay, or be insanely lucky. You do get to keep troops that don't die after battles though, so that's pretty cool

I don't know why I like this game. I loving hate games like this, yet I'm addicted. I've tried like 30 different ones, and this is the only good one.

Should exterior buildings (camps, barracks, collectors, etc) abut walls to keep in range of defenses or maximize the troop exclusion zone?

Keep in range. Unless you're using a centralized clan castle and are trying to make the pull as janky as possible, the goal of your exterior buildings is to get the units that don't discriminate their targets to circle around the base getting shot instead of killing anything worthwhile.

Gonna barch till 7 days left, pop a shield and ride out on collectors till shield pops and upgrade/build a fuckload right off the bat (lab, AQ which is instant, xbow x2, and clan castle).

TH8 shouldn't really take more than 3 months or so with 4 builders, closer to 70 days with 5.

I don't think it's even possible to do TH8 in 70 days even with 5 builders going constantly.

Just checked and it's 70.8 exactly if you're on the ball, but yeah, just working off collectors for a while will definitely slow you down.

Our glorious political masters have, in their wisdom, decided to form an alliance with a rag-tag bunch of freedom fighters right when the Federation has us at a tactical disadvantage. Unsurprisingly, this has resulted in the Feds firing on our vessels...

Damn you Huxley!

Currently four spots left in Goon Tang Clan. We are currently having a run of successful wars, thanks to generous dragon donations. In our current one we're beating our opponents soundly, despite them having used a third again more attacks than we have. Join for victory, stay for the incomprehensible drunken rants.

You want to do both - it is important that if a dragon swarm destroys an outbuilding that it finds the next outbuilding closer than your inner core of defense buildings. This is why you will see some designs leave a space or two of buffer bwtween the outbuildings and the wall.

Just started my TH9 upgrade as well. Not sure how you're planning on having (or have) 40K DE, I get stomped for 1k each attack once I'm above 20k.

Get to 1800+ trophies while you have 15k DE. Then boost your spell factory and lightning the poo poo out of people until you hit 40k DE. Never go offline until you hit your goal.

Grind. Never drop your shield unless you have enough time to make at least 2k de. Boost your barracks. It's a grind but it's so so so worth it.

I have never had trouble getting DE with just plain old bees at 1600-1800. I only raid specifically for the DE if they have like 900+ and the only thing that will deter me is inferno towers, which are pretty uncommon at that trophy range. Just bring wallbreakers and maybe drop 1 heal/rage if it's particularly nasty.

And yeah, don't break your shield unless you're going to be able to get a decent amount of DE (or preferably more than you stand to lose)

Fast n' cheap: something like 6-10 wbs, ~60 barbs, ~78 archers. Look up "TH6 barch" on youtube for basic instructions.
Giants+Healers is also popular around your TH level, you can look up that one too for something with a bit more longevity in getting deep to centralized storages.

Just apply if you fancy it, include an SA reference and if there are spots free you'll be accepted.

https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=trolling+th6 this should link you to four videos by Clash with Cam (the first four results for me) in which he shows you how to troll at TH6. Just takes some good base design and some high level CC troops (if you share replays of you rape apeing dudes no one will have a problem donating troops - just request "anal bum cover for night watch")

Send giants or barbs in first. With the recent patch WBs will attack the wall segment your other troops are attacking. Clear the buildings outside the walls with barbs and archers first if you aren't using giants.

1. Nothing but bees. This is how I farmed up most of my resources at TH6. You have to learn to hit next a lot. Try to shoot for 75k of each resource or if you are more in need of one look for about 100k of that resource. You are looking for guys that place collectors outside their walls. Collector raiding will probably be an overal net loss in trophies. You can attack about 3-4 times an hour with this army. Trust me, it rocks. This is the website I stole it from: TH6 Farming Guide I pretty much followed everything in the guide and it was quite nice.

2. Healer+giant: Comp I stole from supercell forums that I like a lot. Requires fully upgraded camps: 10 giants, 2 healers, 31 archers, 31 gobs, 5 wall breakers. The all bees strategy is quite frankly boring as hell, even if it is hella effective. Heals/giants is a lot more fun and will help you with maintaining your trophies while you farm. Post I stole it from: Healer+Giant guide

3. Standard barch as described above. I've been using this more now that I've done all my TH6 upgrades and my town hall is almost done but honestly I still think all barbs is more effective overall at this TH level.
