Lv3, just started 3 days ago. So far its ok defend 4 and broke 3 TH so far. I just have a small walled in section with my TH, and attacking towers + gold vaults. Going to chill at TH Lv3 till I max all my towers I think.
What i normally do is max out all my walls, attacks and defense before leveling up my town house.
Egon (Grinch) would be proud of you two. He has ocd regarding being fully upgraded before moving on to the next TH lvl
