TROOPS - A BEGINNERS GUIDE

A player's army is used against either the goblins on the campaign map, or against other players in order to win Trophies and loot Resources - this is called raiding.

Troops are created in Barracks and are stored in Army Camps. In the Home Village, some troops require Elixir to upgrade and are trained in the normal Barracks; others require Dark Elixir and are trained in the Dark Barracks. In the Builder Base, troops are trained in the Builder Barracks.

Some Home Village troops may be boosted temporarily into Super Troops, which boast abilities and differences compared to their base form. These Super Troops require that their base versions be sufficiently upgraded in the Laboratory, and cost Dark Elixir to boost.

Heroes are immortal units that are reusable but require time to regenerate their health when it is lost. They are summoned whenever their respective Altar is constructed or rebuilt. In the Home Village, there are four Hero troops; three use Dark Elixir while the other uses Elixir. In the Builder Base, there is one Hero troop, namely the Battle Machine.

In the Home Village, Spells are created and stored in the Spell Factory. There are eleven different spells in the Home Village, six of which require Elixir and are brewed in the Spell Factory; the other five require Dark Elixir and are brewed in the Dark Spell Factory.

Siege Machines are special weapons that transport your Clan Castle troops, used only in the Home Village. They are built in the Workshop.

In the Clan Capital, troops and spells are trained or brewed in a dedicated Barracks or Spell Factory respectively; upgrading these army buildings upgrades the unit involved. Spells in the Clan Capital are also stored in a special Spell Storage not used in the Home Village.
