Vanguard Iron Citadel

Overview

This Town Hall 18 base features an expansive asymmetrical diamond structure designed to break up troop funneling and divert armies away from the key objectives. The merged Town Hall is tucked securely into the top perimeter protected by dense high damage towers and poison spell coverage. Incorporating the Hero Hunter crafted defense, this setup unleashes deadly long range anti hero missiles to dismantle attack charges before they reach the core.

Pros and Cons

Pros:

Deep central compartments create severe pathing loops for ground troops
Hero Hunter crafted defense quickly neutralizes enemy heroes at long distances
Top edge Town Hall placement makes direct blimp attacks extremely risky

Cons:

Outer resource buildings are tightly clustered allowing easy funnel setup
Queen walk strategies from the southern quadrant can pick off key defenses
Multi target infernos are somewhat concentrated leaving wide flanks open to air groups

Strategy Tips

Position seeking air mines near the upper apex to prevent early Warden blimp sniping
Set spell towers to poison mode to decimate bowling pushes inside central choke points
Space spring traps along the inner wall channels to catch fast pathing root riders
