Introduction
If you’ve just reached Town Hall 10 (TH10) in Clash of Clans, congratulations — you’ve entered one of the most competitive levels in the game! At TH10, wars get serious. Attackers use advanced strategies like LavaLoon, Queen Walk, and Bowler Witch, which means your TH10 war base layout needs to be stronger and smarter than ever.
But what makes a base “unbreakable”? Let’s dive deep into everything you need to know to build a TH10 war base that can hold off even the best attackers.
Understanding Town Hall 10 (TH10)
Overview of TH10 Features
TH10 is a big upgrade from TH9. You get Inferno Towers, a new defensive layer, and stronger troops. But remember — every attacker at TH10 also has boosted power, so defense must evolve too.
Key Defenses Unlocked at TH10
- Inferno Towers (Multi & Single mode)
- Bomb Tower
- Extra X-Bow
- Additional traps and walls
Offensive Power vs. Defensive Challenges
TH10 attackers have access to bowlers, miners, siege machines (via clan castle), and spells like Bat and Freeze, making it vital to design your base with both air and ground attacks in mind.
The Importance of a Good War Base
Unlike a farming base (which protects loot), a war base is designed to prevent stars. You want to frustrate attackers, waste their time, and trick their troops.
Common Mistakes Players Make
- Placing the Town Hall too close to the edge
- Predictable trap placements
- Poor Inferno Tower positioning
Remember — even one mistake in design can turn a potential 1-star defense into a 3-star disaster.
Core Principles of a Strong TH10 War Base
Centralized Town Hall
Keep your Town Hall deep inside. The harder it is to reach, the fewer stars your opponent gets.
Balanced Defense Distribution
Don’t clump strong defenses together. Spread them evenly so attackers can’t wipe out all high-damage defenses with one spell set.
Anti-2-Star vs. Anti-3-Star Strategy
Choose your focus:
- Anti-2-star: Stop attackers from getting the Town Hall.
- Anti-3-star: Stop full destruction.
Anti-2-Star Base Concept
Anti-2-star bases aim to protect the Town Hall above all else.
Keep Inferno Towers guarding it closely, and create multiple compartments with dead zones to confuse enemy troops.
Pro Tip: Place the Eagle Artillery (if you were TH11) far from the Town Hall, but at TH10, Infernos act as your “mini Eagle” — make them deadly!
Anti-3-Star Base Concept
These layouts are trickier. You need to make attackers miscalculate funneling and pathing.
Tricks to Try:
- Offset the Queen and Clan Castle to make luring hard.
- Use Tornado Traps near the Town Hall to trap heroes.
- Mix ground and air traps for unpredictability.
Best TH10 War Base Layout Types
Ring Base Layout
Ring bases form a circular path around the core. They often trap enemy troops, preventing them from reaching the Town Hall.
Pros:
- Excellent against Queen Charge attacks
- High chance of 1-star defenses
Cons:
- Vulnerable to precise funneling or Jump spells
Island Base Layout
Island bases separate major defenses (Infernos, Queen, Clan Castle) into isolated “islands” surrounded by empty space and walls.
Strength: Hard to funnel; troops get confused.
Weakness: Weak against air spam like LavaLoon if not balanced.
Symmetrical vs. Asymmetrical Bases
Symmetrical bases look pretty but predictable. Asymmetrical ones confuse attackers and force unexpected troop paths.
If you want to win wars, asymmetry is your friend.
Trap Placement Strategy
Traps are your secret weapons. Correct placement can turn a 3-star attack into a 1-star fail.
Air Traps
- Place Seeking Air Mines near Infernos or Air Defenses.
- Use Red Bombs to protect Wizard Towers from Balloons.
Ground Traps
- Double Giant Bombs between key defenses destroy Hog Riders.
- Skeleton Traps should be set to air for anti-LavaLoon defenses.
Clan Castle Troop Placement
Clan Castle troops are your last line of defense.
Best CC combos for TH10:
- Lava Hound + Balloon (anti-air)
- Baby Dragon + Witch + Archers (mixed)
- Ice Golem + Valkyrie + Archers (anti-ground)
Keep your Clan Castle centrally located, so attackers can’t lure easily.
Base Testing and Improvement
Even the best design can fail if not tested. Use friendly challenges in your clan to test different attack strategies on your base.
Watch replays carefully — every attack reveals a weakness. Adjust walls, traps, or Inferno settings based on what you observe.
Advanced Tips for TH10 War Bases
Layered Wall Defense
Create multiple wall layers between key zones to slow troops down.
Double Giant Bomb Trick
Hide double bombs near Hog routes for instant troop wipeouts.
Hidden Tesla Farm
Cluster Teslas near key areas (like Town Hall or Queen) to surprise attackers.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Leaving one side of your base too open
- Misplaced Inferno Towers
- Neglecting Air Defenses
- Forgetting about funnel paths
Every small mistake is an invitation for a 3-star.
Conclusion
Building the perfect TH10 war base layout isn’t just about defense — it’s about strategy. Every wall, trap, and building placement should have a purpose. Keep testing, keep evolving, and soon your base will be the one everyone in your clan wants to copy.
Remember: smart design beats raw power every time.
