TH18 Trophy Base – Bait Ring Fortress

TH18 ring-style anti-2 star trophy base designed for trap-heavy defense. The Town Hall sits as a deep island in the core, surrounded by multiple layers of walls to block pathing and funnel breakers. Outside the core are five compartments: one at the top, two on the sides, and two on the bottom corners. The top compartment houses the Monolith, Revenge Tower, Bomb Hive, and a Multi Inferno along with the Clan Castle, making it the defensive heart of the base. Side compartments feature Scattershots, Giftowers, Firespitters, and Multi Infernos, while the corner compartments each hold a Ground X-Bow. The left side of the base has no compartment but is massively trapped – loaded with a Gear Up Cannon, Giant Bomb stack, and a Tesla Farm, designed to bait attackers into a trap when they try to rush the Town Hall from that side.

Strengths

Anti-2 Star Ring Core
Town Hall protected by layers of walls and isolated as an island to delay direct pathing.
Bait Pathing Side
Left side looks open but leads attackers through stacked Giant Bombs, Tesla Farm, and Gear Up defenses.
Trap-Stacked CC Compartment
Monolith, Multi Inferno, Revenge Tower, and Bomb Hive protect the core while CC troops slow attackers.
Balanced Edge Defense
Scattershots, X-Bows, and splash defenses positioned in symmetrical outer compartments for even threat coverage.
