Clash of Clans Crafted Defenses April 2026: Air Bombs, Lava Launcher And Roaster

SuperCell has finally decided to launch a new crafting phase this April 2026. This brings three fan-favourite Builder Base defensive buildings, namely Air Bombs, Lava Launcher, and Roaster, to the Home Village.

According to the information provided by the developers, the new Crafted Defenses season starts on April 1st. Clash of Clans has already released a preview with three new defensive buildings and gameplay around them.

Clash of Clans Crafted Defenses April 2026

Unlike the regular defenses, these new defensive buildings will use a module system that allows players to customize health and damage stats according to their needs. This system means that two buildings of the same level will not defend the same way.

Clash of Clans Crafted Defenses April 2026 modules can be upgraded upto level 10 each. Each upgraded level controls a different aspect of the defense like hit points, damage, attack speed and more. These new Crafted Defenses will protect the village all the time, even while they are upgrading. Crafted defensive buildings start from level 3 with modules at level 1, and can be upgraded till level 30.

Clash of Clans Air Bombs

Air Bombs is one of the strongest air defensive buildings of the Builder Base. It continuously launches explosive barrels at air troops like Dragons, Baby Dragons and more. It cannot attack ground troops and at phase 3, it will come to the Home Village as a fully customisable Crafted Defense.

The gameplay video shared by SuperCell shows the Air Bombs Tower launching heavy barrels on air troops. When upgraded to max level including modules, Air Bombs has massive 6000 hit points and deals 950 damage per hit with an attack speed of 2 seconds only.

Clash of Clans Air Bombs might change players' opinions about Dragons and Electro Dragons attack strategy. Rapid firing ability and massive damage capabilities make this one of the strongest Crafted Defenses.

Clash of Clans Lava Launcher

The Lava Launcher is a nightmare for ground troops as it launches powerful lava balls in air. These balls deal small damage initially but leave a fire pit on the ground that keeps on damaging the troops. Clash of Clans Lava Launcher fire effect remains for around 20 seconds.

A fully maxed Lava Launcher has 4900 hit points, deals 125 damage per second and covers an attack range of 20 tiles. When placed in the middle of the base, this building can create problems for Queen Charge attack strategies.

Just like the Builder Base, this Crafted Defense also has a blind spot so players must surround the building with other defenses to stop the melee troops from reaching the blind spot.

Clash of Clans Roaster

Roaster is one of the strongest Clash of Clans Crafted Defenses April 2026 due to its ability to attack both air and ground troops. It throws hot plasma, making it difficult for army swarm attack strategies like Witch Slap, Mass Goblins and Bat Spell Swarms.

Once upgraded to the level 30, Roaster has 6000 hit points, deals 95 damage per attack and fires 15 consecutive shots before resetting. If a player wants to unlock 15 consecutive burst shots ability, they must spend Dark Elixir on the burst fire module. Additionally, many players are still trying to understand seasonal mechanics, explained in detail in What is the Loading Event in Clash of Clans.
