Laboratory and Army Camp
TH4 adds more useful troop combinations. Research and housing space improve every attack regardless of whether you favor a ground army or begin testing Balloons.

TH4 Progression Plan
Practical, offense-first guidanceThe objective at this level
Prepare for air attacks without stalling offensive progress
Town Hall 4 introduces Air Defense, Balloon, Wall Breaker, and the Spring Trap. Air and wall-targeting troops widen the attack choices available to every player, while a single exposed Air Defense can leave the village vulnerable. Upgrade the army pipeline first, then make the new air coverage difficult to reach.
Written by Patrick Nguyen. Reviewed against ClashVault dataset v1.2.0. This sequence is a flexible default: keep upgrades that improve your regular army ahead of optional defensive polish.
Air Defense
It is the village's dedicated answer to air troops. Place it inside the base where surrounding structures force Balloons to spend time under fire.
Barracks and Clan Castle
Barracks progression opens the TH4 troop set, while the Clan Castle continues to provide high-impact reinforcement capacity for attacks and defense.
Suggested builder sequence
- Start the Laboratory upgrade and keep research focused on one usable army rather than spreading levels randomly.
- Raise Army Camp capacity, then improve Barracks access for Balloon and Wall Breaker options.
- Upgrade the Clan Castle and any storage capacity required by the next offensive purchase.
- Build and protect the Air Defense before finishing Mortar, Archer Tower, and Cannon levels.
- Use walls and the Spring Trap to shape ground paths toward defended compartments.
Ready to advance when
- A complete ground or air army has received the available TH4 research levels.
- Army Camp, Laboratory, and Barracks are at their TH4 ceilings.
- Air Defense is covered by other defenses and cannot be reached immediately from the edge.
- Wall Breakers have been tested so walls no longer dictate every attack path.

Data Methodology
Dataset v1.2.0What these levels mean
Each number is the highest level that entity can reach while your Home Village is Town Hall 4. It is a reference ceiling, not an upgrade-priority ranking or a snapshot of one player’s base.
How we maintain the dataset
ClashVault maps entity IDs from real player exports, then checks level caps against update notes, in-game observations, and established community references. The current dataset was reviewed on .
