40 minutes until war! Are we going to have all hands on deck?
Diadaga, did you get accepted into the clan? I looked at your base the other day and it is SICK! Sure could use you in the clan!

I'm enjoying it. Although I'm the lowest ranked member so I can't do anything clan wise.

It won't take long to get a bigger base. I've only been playing for a few months. Some of these guys have been playing over a year. Just depends on how much you play and what your (in game) priorities are. Do you want resources, trophies, etc.

Warriors! The war has begun. They came out strong but we can win this one. We have 5 stars for only 2 attacks so far.
(especially if some of our ghosts appear for this one!)

I invited some the VAXC that don't frequent forums that often. Don't know if they'll join or not though lol.

Are they members here also? Pretty sure they won't get accepted unless they are.
This is probably our closest war (since I have been a member) so far. Pretty sick!

Probably not. You got to realize social media caters to a much larger audience. Joining a forum requires some sort of commitment. Joining a social group on a social network you already use is easy. Trust me, I see it on the political side, drbandkgb, isn't the only forum community administrator here. I just cater to a different topic. It's all the same in the end with social networks though

We are sitting at 21-25 with 3 hrs left in war if any of our ghosts want to help us actually win one for a change.

I've been busy with some real world like issues and away from the game. Having a bad week actually (even got pulled over last night). Have noticed that when you are inactive your chances of invasion goes up. Suppose I'll get on it tonight and see what can be done :-/

I got on CoC last night to find out I had been booted from the XterraNation clan. Saw a note from clan leader (drb?) that said my ranking was making it too hard to win battles. That gave me a chuckle.

Nope. I am cool. Haven't been playin much, so its fine. It just cracked me up that I got booted from a clan for being to good. lol

Have fun! It's only a game!
OK, After a few minutes to see what's going on, it looks like you need walls to give your defenses time to inflict damage on attackers...but that all the walls are breachable.
Walls are EXPENSIVE, and take gold. Gold mines are expensive, and require elixir. There are only 5 builders, and it can take a day or more to build one higher end item, so, its an agonizing process.
Walls that give defenses time to inflict damage also require that the defensive items CAN inflict damage at a rate that will make the walls worthwhile, and so forth.
So making the walls SHORTER in length saves $, as they get so expensive per block....and that means containing the smallest surface area possible. Smaller interior means more stuff outside the walls, guaranteeing their destruction in an attack.
sigh

I can see that.
I started messing with the layout, trying to see what the canons cover, etc, as a size limitation.
I have wall sections left, but I can't be attacked for about another 5-6 days or so, and will use the time to try to optimize the defenses a bit ( A LOT) more. I did find the game won't LET me make the shape I wanted to allow better cross fire coverages, so, I'm working on Plan B.
:tunes:
Ha!
I hear you.
Hey, on the Barbarian king and archer queen, do I need a dark barracks to get them, or are they able to be bought all by themselves?

Regarding village layouts there are lots of tutorials out there on the internet. Go ahead and check them out. Some rules that I follow when building my village are:
1. Upgrade your walls as much as your current TH will allow. They aren't as sexy as saving up for a Wizard Tower but they are effective. They require zero build time and the cost per wall is lower so you don't have to save up so much money (which then gets raided).
2. Concentrate your defense fire power and Gold and Elixir storage inside your village walls. Put everything else outside your walls. This includes Gold Mines, Army Camps, Laboratory and Barracks.
3. Arrange your walls so that you have enclosures around groups of 2-3 structures. This counters a wave of giants breaking through an outer ring of walls and making the village easy to raid once the perimeter is compromised.
4. If you are saving up for a big upgrade and are not concerned at the moment about trophys then place your Town Hall outside your village where it is easy to attack. Some attackers may be after trophies and only attack your TH. This gives you a shield without losing so much gold, thus allowing you to accumulate enough gold for the big upgrade.

Good advice.
Its what I started doing after I realized how some of it works.
I'm still in the dark on some ( A LOT) of how it works though.
The MOST frustrating thing at the moment is not having enough builders, and some of the projects take over 2 DAYS to build, and, I am extrapolating that the higher levels' stuff might take weeks if I get that far.
