Updated for Town Hall 18 (October 2026).
Barbarian Camp is the first district your clan opens in the Clan Capital, at Capital Hall 2. It holds five of the core raid units (Super Barbarian, Sneaky Archers, Super Giant, Battle Ram and Minion Horde) and three of the Capital’s five Army Camps, so most clans fund it before anything else. Its District Hall goes to level 5, which needs Capital Hall 9.
What Barbarian Camp unlocks
Each unit here is trained in its own barracks, and the barracks level sets the unit level for the whole clan in raids. Troops cost nothing to train and you can change your army between attacks.
| Unit | Housing space | Barracks opens at | What it does |
|---|---|---|---|
| Super Barbarian | 5 | District Hall 1 | Melee; gets a speed and damage boost for its first 8 seconds |
| Sneaky Archers (squad of 5) | 10 | District Hall 1 | Ranged; invisible to defenses for their first 5 seconds |
| Super Giant | 10 | District Hall 1 | Targets defenses and hits walls hard |
| Battle Ram | 5 | District Hall 1 | Charges the nearest wall, then four Barbarians come out |
| Minion Horde (6 Minions) | 10 | District Hall 2 | Fast air swarm that ignores ground-only defenses |
The district also has three Army Camps. Each holds 30 housing space at level 1 and 50 at level 5, and every level needs the matching District Hall level. Wizard Valley and Dragon Cliffs add one camp each later.
The map has a fair amount of water but, unusually, no bridges. Ground troops have to walk around the water or cross it with a Jump Spell (gaps of one or two tiles) or a Frost Spell from Builder’s Workshop.
District Hall levels and what each one adds
| District Hall | Capital Hall needed | Upgrade cost | New at this level | Raid Medals for destroying it |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 2 | Starts built | 4 Cannons, 4 Spear Throwers, 4 Air Defenses, 2 Multi Cannons, 2 Bomb Towers, 2 Multi Mortars, 2 Mines, four barracks, 3 Army Camps | 135 |
| 2 | 3 | 25,000 | Minion Barracks, 2 Super Giant Posts, 2 Air Bombs, 2 Mega Mines, more Cannons and Spear Throwers | 225 |
| 3 | 5 | 75,000 | Rocket Artillery, Giant Cannon, 2 Hidden Mega Teslas, 2 Rapid Rockets, third Super Giant Post | 350 |
| 4 | 7 | 150,000 | Three more Multi Cannons, second Giant Cannon, one more of most other defenses | 405 |
| 5 | 9 | 300,000 | Second Rocket Artillery, sixth Multi Cannon, fourth Multi Mortar, Rapid Rockets and Hidden Mega Tesla | 460 |
A building’s max level in a district equals that district’s Hall level, so a District Hall 3 Barbarian Camp caps every building at level 3.

How to attack Barbarian Camp in Raid Weekends
Damage stays between attacks, so treat the district as a shared job. Clear the edge first: each standing building blocks deployment for 4 tiles around it, and every building you knock down opens space for the next player.
- There are no Zap Traps or Log Traps here, only Mines and Mega Mines. Battle Rams and Super Giants can walk in without fear of a Zap Trap stopping them at the wall.
- Multi Cannons wipe small ground troops in one burst but cannot hit air. Minion Hordes take them apart if the Air Defenses and Spear Throwers nearby are already gone.
- Defending Super Giants from the posts cannot cross walls; they leave through gates. Air units are safe from them, so scout where the gates are before sending ground troops past a post.
- Look for empty 2×2 gaps. From District Hall 3 these often hide a Hidden Mega Tesla, which is weak to swarms like Super Barbarians.
- Finishing a district pays 3 Capital Gold for every housing space you still have, deployed or not, so keep a few troops back if the last buildings are nearly down.
Since June 2026, a player who joins your clan after Raid Weekend starts cannot raid unless they are an Elder or higher, have already attacked for the clan, or the clan is Invite Only or Closed.
Base-building tips for Barbarian Camp
- Place gates where you want the Super Giants from the posts to come out. Locking a post inside a compartment keeps those Giants guarding one high-value defense such as the Rocket Artillery.
- Wall in the Rocket Artillery so melee troops cannot walk into its blind spot without breaking through first.
- Cover Multi Cannons with Bomb Towers or Multi Mortars against swarms and with Spear Throwers or Air Defenses against air.
- Leave a few decoy 2×2 holes so attackers cannot tell which ones hold Hidden Mega Teslas or Mega Mines.
- Use the water. With no bridges, a defense set behind a wide stretch of water can only be reached by air troops, jumping, freezing the water or a long walk around.
Barbarian Camp FAQ
What Capital Hall level unlocks Barbarian Camp?
Capital Hall 2. District Hall 5, its max, needs Capital Hall 9.
What should my clan upgrade first in Barbarian Camp?
Army Camps and the barracks for troops your clan actually raids with. Raid strength in every district depends on them, while one more Cannon only matters when this district is attacked.
What happens to Capital Gold after Barbarian Camp is maxed?
Members spend it on the other districts. Once the entire Capital is maxed, gold goes into the Capital Treasury added in June 2026 (see Capital Peak).
Previous district in unlock order: Capital Peak. Next: Wizard Valley (Capital Hall 3). For Capital Gold income see the Forge, and for the whole mode see the Clan Capital guide.
