Clash Of Clans Essentials : Out in the Cold

LEAVING YOUR TOWN HALL OUT IN THE COLD
You're told you want to keep your Town Hall in the center of your base well protected. There are several reasons to do quite the opposite, the most important being that each time someone attacks and destroys your TH you get at least a 12 hour shield.


If you are trying to save resources for upgrades (and basically you're always doing that) then you want to remain shielded as much as possible. If you are not particularly wealthy, buying shields is not feasible – so the only way you are going to get them is by losing in a smart way.

First, like it's mentioned in 'Sweet Victory' section, you can seek opponents just like yourself and recoup lost trophies pretty quick.

Second, you'll randomly be attacked by farmers every so often that give you a bunch of trophies on their way down.

Third, and perhaps most importantly – you can balance some losses by being a sneaky bastard.
