Fire Crabs...BURN THE WALLS !

Hello CoC Chiefs :)

I have a brilliant idea for a troop , called 'Fire Crab' which can be a better , reliable troop to break walls ( including double walls, meshed interconnected walls and even Inner walls with hard base designs for higher town halls with strong walls ).For instance wall breakers are the only solution for overcoming walls, and with my personnel experience with using wall breakers is not good. Wall breakers most times fail to reach inner walls and fail to destroy interconnected wall layouts.It gets hard to use Wbs to reach inner walls ,because player has to focus on deploying other troops.

So, How about fast moving crabs, which carry fire on their backs(like having burning hot lava source embedded to their body like the Lava hound troop !). These fire crabs can burn blocks of walls. Once the Crab hit the wall at a particular point/ block, the fire lights up across the blocks at gradual speed and finally blowing the burnt wall blocks .Thus fire crabs can open a big space for troops to walk in.Al can be similar to wall breakers, with few adjustments.Size of fire crab would be small with limitation of burning up to 6 wall blocks. First single wall block catches fire, then fire in transmitted across any 5 interconnected wall blocks at gradual speed , say 1sec for 1 wall block. ( 5 secs to burn down 5 block walls, interconnected , fire can catch in all 4 directions for interconnected meshed walls ). Thus the troop can be of great help,especially against black walls and higher HIT POINT WALLS further.

This troop can be designed as regular troop too, where it will throw fire balls at any target/ structure on base.It will be rolling/carrying a HUGE BALL OF FIRE, in front while moving.

ART WORK for FIRE CRAB : I am attaching sample art work made for fire crab . It's looks can be great if it is done similar to Lava Hound ( Body with Fire-Lava floating through it's nerves ). Fire Crab can be shown throwing/spewing fire balls on walls for animation purpose.

EXTRA /SPECIAL FEATURE :Moreover , when fire crab walks over Giant bomb or bombs, it will consume the energy radiated from bombs and produce more fire (10% increase in damage per second for the crab ) .Thus Fire crabs can utilize the bombs as power house and re-target the energy at +10% increase in Damage per second, every time it walks over any bomb.

I am sure , if this troop is tested it can be real helpful for players. And may be players will Welcome it.

The Troop can be unlocked in barracks at Th8...

So wait, what your suggesting is a powerful new wall breaker, that looks like a crab on fire?

I think that sounds cool. What would the stats be?

Yeah.... He did say it BURNS 8 blocks....

Burn doesn't count as destroy....

i always go to this subforum so i noticed some inconsistencies you made.
previously there was a thread called "dwarf"- a troop that synergises with the miner, you said there that SC does not need another supports. but i remembered you created the "shadow bird"- which is basically an air support.
Now there is this thread called "ladder carrier"- a troop that specialises in walls, but you said there that we already have a jump spell, but now you created the "fire crab"-a troop that specialises in walls. how would you explain that?

Burns to ashes/ fumes, it is destruction . The walls will just fume/ smoke out. What you think fire will do?

It should have 3 or 4 housing space. And damage double of wall breaker ( at Lvl 1) with the special ability to burn 5-8 adjacent blocks of walls , at certain fixed rate of burning. Nicely co- ordinated fire crabs attack can , help to take down double walls ( walls sticked to one another), tripple layers of walls.At higher levels fire crabs hitpoints increase considerably , with small increase in dps and ofcourse they carry more fire .An advanced attack strategy againt walls !.

i dont mean to defend other ideas and im not trying to say this troop sux, i actually like the idea (both this or the ladder version), if the right stats were given to both. but pls avoid the "my-troop-is-better-than-your-troop" mindset

There was no troop , like the healer , for supporting air troops, so ' shadow bird' was suggested. Dwarfs basically were alike barbs in many ways, and too complicated strategy for it. Fire crabs are best at taking out double walls, and tripple , as wall breakers fail short to reach inner wall layouts( specially engineered bases ? ) .Fire Crabs can open the doors for new attack strategies , if they were implemented .And I don't want ladder carriers to jump on the top of TOWNHALL ROOF ! ☺.And ladder carries , will be nothing different than jump spell, just a new troop look with same function.
