You guys recommend I upgrade all my resource producers (mines and elixir things) as far as I can before TH7? That's going to be the big timesink unless I also upgrade all 3 army camps...

Upgrade everything including your walls. Take the time to max everything out. Also upgrade everything that you can. Max out upgrading your spells. That is what I am doing in my second village. Mainly because now I am stuck in my primary having to bring everything up to levels that I should have done when I was at lv 7 and it is taking longer because my raids on low level players give me to little and if I go for high level players then It costs a lot to build the troops that you need.

[Obdigore]

So I've been avoiding upgraded defenses during clan wars (and the days leading up to them) because I assumed they don't work during clan war if they are being upgraded. Is that correct?

edit: And yes, I've been doing all the walls all the way. Its the time sink for your builders that is annoying. I can farm people for cash all day long.

Your defenses will still work in clan wars even if they are being upgraded.

Max everything every townhall level, at least through th7 at a minimum. Honestly th8 too. Even walls.

Really? Well then, time to start upgrading those mortars. I was avoiding because I didn't want them not working during the war.

They don't work if someone attacks your base (non war) while you are upgrading, right?

Ok, here is a question. Should I go double heal spell for clan wars, or should I go 1 heal, 1 lightning, since I KNOW they are going to have clan defense and the lightning kills their defensive troops so very fast?

That is a good question.

I have two of my mortars upgrading right now.

[Raymond Luxury Yacht]

If they are upgrading they will work for wars but will not work if someone does a normal raid on your base. Also, if you are in the process of building a defense for the first time it will work during wars.

I wouldn't take two heals. At most one.

[Obdigore]

Vengeance, we've got people who are attacking far too 'low', others who are attacking people after they have been 3-star'd, and people just being generally bad.

Not sure how serious you want to be about it, this is just an FYI of what I saw in the first hour or so of this weeks war.

[Blend]

I haven't done well in the last three wars. Today I failed on one attack completely and then managed to 1-star a town that was already 1-starred. That's better than I've done in the last two wars.

[Raymond Luxury Yacht]

My last war went poorly too. I normally take out the two highest th9s for at least 4 stars. This last war I got one. Fail.

[EmperorMagus]

I play this too. I recently joing Venge's Clan.

Anomander Rake--> Go Ducks

I always wonder at the ultimate goal of clan wars though, Even if you win it is not really worth the bother...

[Dolmen 2.0]

So I just got into this Clashing business. Joined a group called Malazans.

I'm Level 27 and I'll be honest, I'm the weakest link in the group at the moment.

We started a war and are at the prep stage...I'm not too sure What I need to focus on. Donating seems to be my niche. I do well defensively (I think) but my attack is a lil iffy. Cant find an answer to archery towers.

[Raymond Luxury Yacht]

The answer is always maxing your troops for your townhall. If archer tower are hurting you, it sounds like you need to use more giants as tanks. Send them in first, once they start drawing the fire from the defenses send in the archers behind them. The archers kill the archer tower while they are focused on the giants. Don't forget some wallbreakers so your giants can get to the defenses.

2 attacks for hundreds of thousands of 'bonus' resources, without losing resources if you are attacked and broken in the clan war?

Yea... not really worth it...

Doublepost:

Not sure how rights work in this, but I think you need to take away both Invite and Approval from everyone who isn't a co-leader.

[Raymond Luxury Yacht]

The goal of clan wars is winning. It feels good to be in a war clan with a lot of wins.

[Tattersail_]

33 wins so far for my clan. 2 Wars ago we came across an amazing clan, well organised and tough to beat. I got 3 stars in my first battle but in my second one. Wow. One bomb, yes one big bomb, took out 32 hogs. The Teslas where positioned in a way where once I had dealt with the CC and released the hogs they jumped from one to another and because it was unexpected, no heal spell down, they all died there and then. Before even breaching the walls.

[Tattersail_]

Last war though I got 5 stars using balloons and minions. The loot I got was 600k elixir and 600k gold with 1350 dark

My last two wars were shit also. I managed 3 stars in two battles with my prime but my second which usually just based on rank is able to 6 stars. I couldn't even managed 1.

Giants... Use at least 10 giants at that stage and follow with archers and bombers just like RLY said.
