BAM Army

There is another aspect to BAM that puts it well above other, slower building armies.

For TH9, the ghost bases are where the real spikes in loot come from. And, they are like aces in a blackjack shoe. They rotate in every 11-16 hours.

If you have a quicker building army, then you are actively searching through more bases more often. This gives you a greater chance to actually find those ghost bases as they come back up from being shielded.

The less time you are watching your army build and the more time you are hitting NEXT the better off you are. It's pretty much sub 200 farming all over again, but without the fear of getting pushed up in cups if you log off.

So far today, I have gotten attacked twice with this strategy... It's getting quite popular now with all the youtube vids and forum posts about it....

I found it kind of funny when both attacks scored for under 15k total loot....and that was from the collectors and using their entire army lol.

I've been using BAM for a while now. It works great with lvl 5 troops. I don't use any WBs and I have been able to make 8-10mil gold a day (TH8).

I tried using bam but I failed miserably twice. The barbarians started walking all randomly and the archers grouped together and were hit by splash. Only the minions got some resources but nowhere near like the numbers you guys show. I still prefer to use other troops in my army to break through bases.

But 1.5k is good to.. I'm farming sub 200 and normally go for 3k well down here

This army is really only good for hitting mines or bases with really weak defenses.

Yea thought so. Its fast and cheap but it has a low success rate - by that I mean good loot and at least 1 star

I recommend throwing in 20 gobs and 10wbs.

Use 10 WBs? Everyone else is against WBs due to their training time and the fact that B/A can be used as WBs in a sense. I do agree on the gobs, I wonder why nobody else thinks they're useful on this army, though the minions are what mostly steal the gold, from what I've seen.

That would defeat the purpose.

BAM is meant to be fast and furious.
