Base Building Basics

In order to be able to attack other players, and to defend yourself appropriately, you have to establish a strong and secure base. The center of this is the Town Hall, which awards 1 star to a player if they are able to destroy it while attacking you.

Around this you also need Resource Collectors, Extractors and Storage, depending on the resource in question. A Barracks is required to train troops, an Army Camp to house them while they wait to go into battle, and a whole host of defensive structures, from Walls to Cannons and Mortars.

As you progress through the game you can upgrade all of these structures at a cost, in both time and resources. Higher level buildings also become available, such as the Laboratory. To be able to build or upgrade a structure, a Builder is required to carry out the work.

TIP: Do not advanced to the next level Town Hall without upgrading ALL of your offensive troops, buildings, and walls!
