Barbarian camps
Barbarian villages 👹 appear on the map, near your home: attack them to grab wood 🪵, stone 🪨 and wheat 🌾.
Who can attack a barbarian camp?
Everyone, with no conditions. Camps have no score: neither beginner protection nor the anti-farm rule (target 5× weaker) applies. You see the exact garrison before you set out, and you can simulate it — a camp simulated ahead of time can't surprise you.
How it works
- 🗺️Open your county map: camps are marked 👹 on free fiefs.
- ⚔️Click the camp to see its garrison and loot, then "⚖️ Simulate" to size your wave.
- 🎯Send enough troops to win without losses: a dead unit ruins profitability. The attack burns wheat 🌾 (fuel) for the round trip.
- 💰Victory = you plunder the camp's resources (capped by what your troops can carry).
The 7 threat levels
Each camp shows its threat level before battle. A single level can contain different garrisons and riches: always inspect the actual camp, then simulate it.
In every active county, one slot aims for an accessible target and the other for a challenge. Threats V to VII gradually follow the realm each week, while beginner camps stay stable.
Rules to know
The daily yield
To stop a single player from clearing the map, your loot drops after a few camps in the same day (reset at midnight, Paris time). Before the attack, the camp sheet shows your current percentage, today's victories, all four tiers and the time left until reset.
Frequently asked questions
Why didn't I bring everything back?
Two possible reasons. Either your surviving troops didn't have enough transport capacity to carry it all. Or your daily yield dropped below 100% because you've already plundered several camps today.
The camp survived my attack — is that normal?
Yes. If your wave is too weak, you lose troops and the garrison stays put. The camp is only destroyed once its garrison is wiped out. Always simulate before setting out and send some margin.
Can another player steal my camp?
Yes: first come, first served. Camps are visible to every neighbor in the county, and that's intended — it's a first step toward competition.
Should I scout a camp before attacking it?
No. The garrison is fully public on click, so scouting is pointless. Use the "⚖️ Simulate" button to dial in your wave precisely.
Does attacking a camp cost wheat?
Yes. Like any attack, it's a fleet movement: it burns wheat 🌾 (the fuel), taken for the round trip based on the distance and the units sent. Without enough wheat, the dispatch is refused — keep a reserve before launching your wave.
