=== Balance Changes - 6th August 2012 ===
* The Alchemists report that their potions have suddenly become easier to mix. Now you’ll be able to train higher level units for less Elixir. This means that you can field bigger, badder armies and cause more mayhem!
* However, quicker and cheaper training will come at a price. Without as much Elixir pumped into them, your high level units will have fewer hitpoints than before, and might not strike with quite as much power.
* Luckily, your village will stand a better chance to defend against the hordes of enemies! Bolster your defenses with a brand new Archer Tower upgrade – unlocked at Town Hall level 7 – to mow down the endless waves of attackers.
