Why People Put Their Town Hall Outside Their Base

Have you ever wondered why people put their Town Hall on the outside of their base? I get this question a lot too and the answer is quite simple.

Here's a picture of my base and you'll see that I have my Town Hall on the outside of my base:

There are two different kind of attackers in Clash of Clans:

• The ones that want loot
• The ones that want to complete achievements

Which type do you think the Town Hall on the outside attracts? If you guessed the ones that want to complete achievements, then you guessed right. They're going after the Humiliator achievement and not loot. 

Do you put your Town Hall on the outside of your base?

10 Examples of Bases That Were Rushed

Watch Me Steal 658,850 In Resources From Matteo

I have created a YouTube channel to go along with this blog. I'm going to start out by making a couple videos a month. If you'd like to subscribe, click here:

Here's the video where I share a replay of me stealing 658,850 in resources from a clasher named Matteo:



Key Takeaways

1. Always know your numbers - How much is it costing you to train troops? How much do you stand to gain realistically if you win the raid? How much will you profit from the raid?
2. When going up against xbows, check to see if they're strung or not. If they're unstrung, then you know the player hasn't loaded it with elixir in a while. If it's not strung, then you know the xbow won't attack you.
3. Look to see if the storages are empty or not. If they're empty, then the majority of the resources are tied up in the actual collectors themselves.

Clan Etiquette - Do's and Don'ts

Me, the leader and the the other co-leaders in my clan are always kicking people out of our clan for stupid stuff. Today I want to talk about proper clan etiquette. In other words, things you should and shouldn't do.

Requesting and Donating Troops

It's pretty dumb of you to request troops you can't even make. It's a huge pet peeve of ours. Don't request lvl 5 archers if you can only make lvl 4. The same goes for requesting a PEKKA knight when you can't even make them yet.

When you're requesting troops, customize the message and tell your fellow clan members exactly what you're wanting them to donate to you. You don't have the right to complain if you don't tell them what to give you.

When you see that someone is requesting troops, read the message and give them what they're asking for. It's pretty shitty if you give them gobs when they asked for archers. (Gobs are one of the worst units to have in a clan castle - more on this in a future post).  If an idiot donates something you didn't ask for, just delete the unit and tell them not to do that again. If they do it again, it's grounds for kicking in our clan.

Clan Wars

Don't even bother attacking anyone in the enemy's top 10. You'll most likely fail and get 0 stars for your clan. It's important to attack a base you know you can 2 or 3 star.

To give your clan the best chance of winning a war, the clan castles need to be filled. Pull your weight and donate, but don't be stupid and take all of that responsibility and fill every clan castle. It's not fair to you and your resources that you work so hard for.

Recruiting 

Don't leave all the recruiting to the leader and co-leaders. Pull your weight and jump on Global chat and talk people into joining your clan. When new people join the clan, welcome them and ask them where they're from. New people want to be part of a clan that's active and friendly.
