A guide to the best defense and base layout for Town Hall 8 players in Clash of Clans. TH8 players can use this for both farming and for war, with some slight modifications between the two (namely the Town Hall inside the base (for wars and trophies) versus outside the base (for farming) and the drill outside the base (for wars/trophies) and inside the base (for farming). This is a slight modification on the very popular "Tempest" base design originally created by poster Orz on the supercell forums. The original thread can be found here: http://forum.supercell.net/showthread.php/191329-The-Tempest-A-TH8-Base-Design-%282-Formations%29 I made some slight modifications to help protect Dark Elixir. Namely: - I moved the walls a bit around the northern Wizard Tower in order to fit the drill inside the base. - I moved the DE storage away from the walls and dropped bomb traps near it, to protect it from Goblins / Barbarians that may break through. - Clan Castle is specifically placed in the northernmost aspect of the center, in order to make it more difficult to lure units out. The same goes for the war version of the base.
