Clash of Clans base layouts, 1246 ready to build

Clash of Clans base layouts for every Town Hall

This site is a library of Clash of Clans base layouts, built so you can find a strong base for your exact Town Hall or Builder Hall in a few taps. It holds 1246 base layouts for Town Hall 3 to Town Hall 18 and Builder Hall 3 to Builder Hall 10. Every one is shown as a full, clear picture of the whole village, walls and all, so you can study the design before you spend a single builder on it.

Each hall is split into base types, and each type holds up to fifteen layouts. That limit is on purpose: a short list of good Clash of Clans base designs is easier to choose from than a page of four hundred near-copies of the same ring base. Pick a hall, pick a goal, open the base that looks right, and rebuild it in your village.

What makes the best Clash of Clans base

The best Clash of Clans base is not the one with the most walls. It is the one that makes an attacker waste time. A strong base layout usually gets a few things right at the same time:

• The core is split into compartments. Walls that break the base into small cells force ground troops to stop and break through again and again, which burns the attack timer.
• Air defences are spread out. If one spell or one hero can reach every Air Defense at once, air attacks walk straight through. Spacing them apart protects the whole base.
• Splash damage covers the approach. Mortars, Wizard Towers and Bomb Towers placed where troops bunch up do far more damage than the same defences on the outside edge.
• Traps sit where attackers are funnelled. Giant Bombs and Spring Traps work best in the gaps between compartments, where troops walk after the first wall falls.
• The base has one clear goal. A layout that tries to protect loot, stars and trophies all at once usually protects none of them well.

The base design principles guide goes deeper into each of these rules if you want to understand why a layout works.

Clash of Clans base types, layouts and strategies

Every base on this site belongs to one type. The type tells you what the layout is trying to protect, and it decides which strategy the design follows.

• War bases are built for Clan Wars and Clan War League. The goal is to deny the three star, so the Town Hall and the key defences sit deep inside the base.
• Farm bases protect your storages and Dark Elixir. The storages move to the centre and the Town Hall can sit closer to the edge.
• Trophy bases protect the Town Hall and your percentage, so you lose fewer trophies when you are attacked in multiplayer.
• Hybrid bases balance loot and trophies for players who want a bit of both.
• Fun bases are for laughs: shapes, patterns and words drawn with walls.

If you are not sure which one you need, the guide to war base vs farm base vs trophy base explains the difference in plain terms.

Pick a base by Town Hall level

A Clash of Clans base only works at the level it was built for, because every Town Hall unlocks new defences. That is why each hall has its own page.

A level 9 Clash of Clans base has to handle the first X-Bows and the Archer Queen, and it faces a lot of air attacks, so spreading the Air Defenses matters most. A level 10 Clash of Clans base adds the Inferno Towers, which are best kept inside the core where they can cover each other. A level 11 Clash of Clans base, also called a Town Hall 11 Clash of Clans base, adds the Eagle Artillery and the Grand Warden, and the best Clash of Clans base for Town Hall 11 keeps the Eagle Artillery well away from the edges so it is not taken out early.

Higher halls follow the same idea with more pieces. The Town Hall 18 base layouts are the newest, and every lower hall down to Town Hall 3 still has its own set for players who are still climbing. You can also filter across every hall at once in the layout finder.

How to copy a Clash of Clans base design

You do not need a separate Clash of Clans base builder app. The game has one built in: the Layout Editor. It lets you move every building in a spare layout slot without touching the village you are defending with right now.

1. Open the base on this site and tap the picture to see it at full size.
2. In Clash of Clans, open the Layout Editor and choose an empty layout slot.
3. Place the Town Hall first, then the walls, so the shape of the base is locked in.
4. Add the defences, storages and traps where the picture shows them, then save the layout.

Taking a screenshot of the picture first makes it easier to follow, because you can switch between the game and the image without losing your place. It is the simplest way to make a Clash of Clans base copy that matches the design exactly.

Builder Base layouts

The Builder Base plays by different rules: the attacker brings one army and the battle runs in two stages. That is why it has its own set of layouts, from Builder Hall 3 up to Builder Hall 10. Many Builder Base pictures show the base in both night and day views, so you can see the full design either way.
