Clash of Clans developer Supercell has unveiled another new feature of the forthcoming update - Village Guard. The Shield and Village Guard do the same work of preventing attacks; however, they are utilized in different ways. There are some differences between Shield and Village Guard.

Shield is meant to give opportunities for downtime from Clash of Clans game and Village Guard is meant to support active play time. For instance, if  players require a 15-minute break for a shower or if they want to boost their Barracks and have a two-hour play session of continuous attacking, the Village Guard can be used to ensure they do not get attacked in the middle of it, even if they go offline accidentally or get distracted for sometime.

Given below are the differences between Shield and Village Guard

1. A player can attack freely through Village Guard with no penalty. A player can attack whenever they want while shielded but it costs some shield time.

2. Players can get free Village Guard automatically when Shield expires. Players can get free Shield after defending.

3. Free Village Guard time improves with League and free Shield time is the same for the gamers.

4. Village Guard is only available to purchase while Shield is down. Players can purchase Shield at anytime.

5. Active Village Guard time always counts towards Personal Break timer. On the other hand, Shield Time never counts towards Personal Break timer.

6. Extra Guard time is available for 10 gems in the shop each day and extra Shield time is available for 100+ gems in the shop each few days.

The Village Guard enables gamers to remain online when they want, Shield enables gamers a chance to take longer breaks from the Clash of Clans game and the Personal Break system ensures everyone defends equally, Cocland reported.

According to a Neurogadget report, the game will get a Town Hall Level 11. Updating the Town Hall to Level 11 will offer some incentive, particularly a new defensive building with a strong laser beam. Reports also suggest that there will be a new hero and will reportedly cost 6 million elixirs.
