Best TH14 & TH15 Base Layouts 2026 – War, Trophy & Farming Bases
Best TH14 & TH15 Base Layouts 2026 – War, Trophy & Farming Bases
By Racing Raftaar | Updated January 2026 | Category: Strategy Games
Welcome, Chief! If you have reached Town Hall 14 or Town Hall 15, you know that base design is everything. At this level, attackers have access to devastating strategies like Yeti Smash, Super Witch, and Root Rider attacks. A poorly designed base will get 3-starred every single time.
But here is the good news: with the right base layout, you can defend against even the most skilled attackers. A well-designed base confuses troops, wastes attacker's time, and protects your most valuable resources. Whether you are pushing trophies in Legends League, defending in Clan Wars, or simply protecting your loot, we have got the perfect base for you.
In this comprehensive guide, we are sharing the absolute best base layouts for TH14 and TH15 in 2026. Every base has been tested against current meta attacks and optimized for maximum defense.
1. Understanding Base Types
Before we show you the layouts, you need to understand the three main types of bases and when to use each one:
| Base Type | Purpose | Priority | When to Use |
|---|---|---|---|
| War Base | Prevent 3-stars | Defend Town Hall | Clan Wars, CWL |
| Trophy Base | Protect trophies | Town Hall + Defenses | Legend League, Pushing |
| Farming Base | Protect resources | Storages + Collectors | Upgrade phase |
The biggest mistake players make is using the same base for everything. A war base is designed to prevent 3-stars, not protect loot. A farming base protects resources but might give away easy stars. Always switch your base depending on your current goal.
2. Best War Bases (Anti 3-Star)
War bases have one job: prevent the enemy from getting 3 stars. At TH14 and TH15, this is extremely difficult because attackers have incredibly powerful armies. Your base needs to do everything possible to waste their time and eliminate their troops.
Defends Against: Root Rider, Yeti Smash, Super Witch
Key Features:
- Spread out Town Hall to avoid Queen Charge value
- Tornado trap placement to disrupt Root Rider pathing
- Multi-compartment design to slow down ground troops
- Air defenses protected from Blizzard (Super Witch + Blimp)
- Centralized Clan Castle for maximum protection
Defends Against: Yeti Smash, Hybrid, GoWiPe
Key Features:
- Island Town Hall design – harder to reach
- Spring traps placed in Giant/Yeti pathways
- Seeking Air Mines protecting Eagle Artillery
- Asymmetrical layout to confuse attackers
- Double Giant Bomb spots for Hog Riders
War Base Defense Priority
| Priority | What to Protect | Why |
|---|---|---|
| 1st | Town Hall | Losing TH = guaranteed 1 star |
| 2nd | Eagle Artillery | Most powerful defense |
| 3rd | Clan Castle | CC troops can change the attack |
| 4th | Inferno Towers | Melts tanks and heroes |
| 5th | Scattershots | Destroys grouped troops |
3. Best Trophy Pushing Bases
Trophy bases are designed for players pushing to Legends League or maintaining a high trophy count. Unlike war bases, trophy bases focus on preventing stars completely rather than just preventing 3-stars. Every star matters when you are pushing.
Trophy Range: 5500+ (Legends League)
Key Features:
- Town Hall in the absolute center with maximum protection
- All splash damage defenses covering TH compartment
- Anti-air design to stop Electro Dragon spam
- Compact design to reduce time for attackers
- Hero placement optimized for defense
Trophy Range: 4000-5500 (Champion - Titan)
Key Features:
- Ring base design with TH in center
- High HP buildings in outer ring to waste time
- Tornado trap near TH to pull troops away
- Seeking Air Mines clustered for Blimp protection
4. Best Farming Bases
Farming bases are all about protecting your resources. When you are saving up for expensive upgrades (hello, 20 million gold walls!), every raid that steals your loot sets you back. A good farming base makes attackers work hard for minimal reward.
Protects: Gold, Elixir, Dark Elixir
Key Features:
- All storages deep inside the base
- Town Hall exposed (give free star, save loot)
- Dark Elixir storage in absolute center
- Collectors spread outside to distract troops
- Splash damage covering storage compartments
Focus: Dark Elixir (Hero upgrades)
Key Features:
- Dark Elixir storage surrounded by all Infernos
- Multiple wall layers around DE storage
- Air defenses protecting from mass Dragon attacks
- Town Hall outside to give attackers a free star
5. Base Building Tips
Whether you copy our bases or design your own, these principles will help you create stronger defenses:
Golden Rules of Base Design
- Spread Out Splash Damage: Never put Wizard Towers, Mortars, or Scattershots next to each other. One Lightning spell could take out multiple defenses.
- Triangulate Air Defenses: Place Air Defenses so they cover each other. If one gets destroyed, others can still defend.
- Protect Your CC: A centralized Clan Castle means attackers cannot easily lure and kill your CC troops before the main attack.
- Use Funneling Against Attackers: Create natural pathways that lead troops into traps and away from important buildings.
- Test Your Base: Use Friendly Challenges in your clan to test bases before using them in wars.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
| Mistake | Why It's Bad | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Symmetrical bases | Easy to predict | Make asymmetrical designs |
| Empty compartments | Wasted space | Fill with traps or buildings |
| Exposed Eagle | Easy to snipe | Centralize with protection |
| Grouped storages | One push takes all loot | Spread storages apart |
6. How to Import Bases
Copying a base in Clash of Clans is easy. Follow these steps:
- Open the base link on your device (or copy the link)
- The game will automatically open
- Tap "Copy Layout" when prompted
- Go to your base editor
- Tap the clipboard icon to paste the layout
- Save and activate the base
Final Thoughts
A strong base is your first line of defense in Clash of Clans. But remember, no base is unbeatable. Even the best designs will eventually get 3-starred by a skilled attacker with the right army composition. The goal is to make it as difficult as possible.
Keep testing your bases in Friendly Challenges, watch replays of your defenses to learn what works and what does not, and always stay updated with the current meta. When Supercell releases new troops or balance changes, the meta shifts, and bases need to adapt.
