How do i use an archer, barbarian, and minion army???

I typically use a power farming army with lots of giants, wallbreakers, and gobs/archers. It takes a wee bit too long to train, so I need a tutorial on how to use a BAM army.
How many of each do i need? What order should I deploy them in? What types of bases should I attack? Etc.

any help is appreciated, thanks everyone :)

it's very simple....

deploy barbs to suck fire and hit outer walls building. then archers to help them and destroy building inside walls while barbs is hitting the walls.. . then minions to go deeper

heal your group of barbs or minions to stay longer in the battle, rage to destroy storage quickly.

I always fill two barracks with archers, two with barbarians and one dark barrack with minions.

Thank you both. It seems like an odd strategy, but it works for a lot of people so I'll try it out all day today until I get the hang of it :)

I have 2 giants, 6 wallbreakers, 88 archers and 70 barbs.
I cue barracks before each attack with 15 barbs in two barracks, 14 in two more with archers.
Once the attack is done I replenish what I need in those four barracks.
So after attack (if I use all troops) I have 30 barbs already cued and 28 archers. I add 1 giant, 2 wallbreakers and 3 archers to the barb barracks. I add 1 wallbreaker and 27 archers to the archer barracks.
I usually have a build time of just about 15 mins for all troops. If I use the minions, I just split them between both DE barrakcks.
Attack: If it's not a collector raid (rarely) I determine which side to attack from to get closest to what I want, gold, DE. I deploy about 1/3 of the barbs, I follow that with about 1/3 of the archers.
If there is a bad area for splash I'll drop the two giants. Follow on with a wallbreaker or two and release another 1/3 of barbs and archers. Deploy another 2 wbs.
At this point see how your attack is unfolding. A normal defensive perimiter has 1-3 layers so by now my archers are in range of the inner perimeter.
Depending on if the defender has another side to attack or I can see a weakness I'll drop the other troops. I use minions if I see a clear advantage in getting DE or if most destructive towers are down.
Though I lose some elixir with giants and wbs, I don't lose gold searching for collector raids, I just see a good amount of loot and go get it. Besides, it's still just around 15 mins so you can attack frequently.

So we need to be barb heavy while using bam? Thinking about using it when I get TH7.

In fact I intentionally work it so I have less barbs. I have the barb barracks help with replenishing archers.
You can do it with just loading up barracks with each type but it's lazy and will give you less than great results.
It depends on if you want results or are a lazy farmer. I'm willing to work at it to get maximum results on each raid.
