The Obsidian Citadel

Overview

This Town Hall 18 layout utilizes a highly offset core structure designed to throw off main kill teams early in the raid. Key defenses like the Monolith and Multi Archer Towers are isolated in separate compartments to maximize damage coverage across the entire map. The outer ring features strategically placed traps and point defenses that disrupt pathing for funnel dependent armies.

Pros and Cons

Pros:

Offset Town Hall placement creates difficult entry decisions for attackers
High value defenses are evenly distributed to prevent heavy Blimp value
Deep compartment walls force heavy expenditure of Wall Breakers or Jump Spells

Cons:

Funneling from the bottom corner is relatively straightforward for Queen Charges
Air defenses are somewhat reachable from outer boundaries by air troops
Giant Arrow snipes can align multiple key structures simultaneously

Strategy Tips

Place Tornado Traps near the Monolith compartment to completely stall incoming Hero charges
Set Spell Towers to Poison mode near high density defense clusters to ruin swarm tactics
Rotate air sweepers toward the most common Siege Machine deployment angles
