Why does a rushed base matter to a farming clan like yours? You don't try to win wars, so how would a rushed base "hurt" your clan?

It doesn't bother me at all, but the rest of the clan seems to have an irrational aversion to rushed bases. I, personally, let in rushed bases as long as they have lvl 5 troops across the board. But, I'm not on all the time, and the rest of the guys are really fast with the reject button even when I am on.

It's not important enough to me to try to convince people otherwise.

I am about to leave Th8 after such a long time..

Upgrades will be:
Lab
Spell
Clan Castle
King - 11
Dark Barracks

Won't be adding any new Defense items yet. I am going to try and not affect my war ranking. (Currently #10 in our clan during wars).

I won't be adding AQ yet for this reason. Same for X-bows

Right now my base is hard to 3 star even for a TH9 so I want to get the offensive power first.

I can understand your reasoning, but the AQ is a game changer. There is no better farming troop in the game. She rocks in war too.

Good luck! When I finally made it to TH9, I was completely maxed out on my TH8 base. But, I still wished that I could have stayed a TH8 longer. It is a lot harder to get loot as a TH9. You're gonna see that for yourself.
 
Th8.5 is not nearly as feasible as th9.5. I wouldt recommend it and im the biggest proponent for 9.5
 
It really depends on how much Dark I have when TH completes upgrade. I may skip Minion 4 in my lab to do AQ.

I am agreeing that AQ is game changer, but we all know that the first couple levels of anything in COC are worthless. I am not sure I want to spend a builder in my infancy on something that will take 5 upgrades before an ability is unlocked.

I may do my Army Camps or Dark Elixir drill before a Royal.
 
The queen is pretty badass even at level 1. The ability helps a lot, though.
I'm still TH 9, but my AQ is level 22 and my king is 11. All defenses are maxxed. All troops are maxxed. 245 walls are level 9 and one is level 10. I am not going to go to TH 10 until I have a lot more level 10 walls. It's kind of fun being damn near maxxed out at TH9. Oh, I think I have one more upgrade available on my air sweeper. It is currently level 4. That'll be done soon though.
 
The difference between no AQ and a lvl1 AQ is much much higher than between a lvl10 BK and a lvl11 BK.

VERY true. AQ was my first upgrade when I hit TH9 and I don't regret it at all.

Don't forget that AQ1 is "instant". And if you have i think 63.5k DE, you can immediately start AQ2.

Bk11-14 is worthless. You are spending just as much DE and time upgrading BK to 15 as getting your AQ to 5. And AQ5 is waaay better than BK15 (in regards to the gains from BK10).

I know it's been said here before, but it's worth repeating. First troop upgrade should be Giants L6. Those in front of your AQ makes DE farming a breeze in Gold 1/2.

After that, probably Archers. The rest is personal preference. Max loons are great for war, Max hogs......kind lose the love now that most War bases have Dbl big bombs.

TH9 is THE most fun TH so far. The 20 added troops, witches, Lava hounds, L6 giants, AQ. Enjoy!
 
My biggest concern in getting the AQ right away is the same as getting XB right away. Because royals count in war matchmaking I don't want to be equalled against an experienced th9 when I still only have th8 troops.
 
Do any of you record your attacks?

I've been doing it a lot lately. Started as I tried learning hog attacking and needed feedback from non clan members. Now I do it just to have a record of my progress and knowing SuperCell ditches replays after every maintenance break.

And, no, I don't only record the three star ones. Lol
 
I never recorded. Too lazy to set it up.

Just so you know, SuperCell will be using walls as a factor in matchmaking. So your TH8 Skull walls with match up against a th10 with pink/purple with Inferno's

IMO, they should factor in Troop levels as well.
 
So, we have hit our first minor snag in our farm wars. We have finally bumped into another farm war clan who has all of their TH's exposed. We are trying to decide whether to attack all of the bases and get the XP more quickly or just attack the top 2 to get the max losers' bonus.

The issue is that we are concerned that having one win on our record is going to make it a bit harder to convince future clans to open up their top 2 bases.

lulz agree to tie. you each attack 1 and 2 for 1 star. any clan that looks will see it was a 2-0 win and laugh.
 
Shit, can't be inactive even when I try. Sign out of war to go out of town, still pull 6 stars. :twofinger
 
Just agree to tie with the other clan. 2 stars each? You both get more bonus loot.
