Base layouts
6 fully interactive TH8 layouts — inspect every building, toggle defense ranges, see what each base is weak to, then customize it in the builder.
An anti-3-star war layout for Town Hall 8: the Town Hall and Clan Castle sit in the walled core, key defenses are split across compartments so one spell package can't clear them, and Air Defenses are spread into separate quadrants against zap-quake.

Copy links open Clash of Clans on your device with the layout ready to place — they're created and shared by their designers in game, so there's no preview here until you open them.
Straight from the game data — the buildings you unlock, the extra copies you get, and where your level caps move when you reach TH8.

The current meta attack strategies at Town Hall 8 — build your base against these, or take them to war yourself.
GoVaHo (Golem Valk Smash)
MediumWar / 3-star · #1 at TH8
Valkyries hit everything around them inside TH8's tight compartments, and two Golems buy them the time they need. It's the most forgiving true smash at this hall — one funnel, one lane, heal on cooldown.
GoHo (Golem + Hog Riders)
MediumWar / 3-star · #2 at TH8
Hogs ignore walls and shred defenses once the Clan Castle is neutralized, which is the whole game at TH8. The Golem kill squad handles the one thing that beats Hogs — defending troops — before the real attack starts.
Mass Dragons + Lightning
EasyWar / 3-star · #3 at TH8
The longest-standing war staple at TH8: three Air Defenses are the only real threat, and Lightning removes one before takeoff. Dragons forgive sloppy deployment in a way no ground army does.
