New Siege Machine (The Cross Box)

Now called the XBOW Cart!!!

NOTE: Supercell if considering this idea has the right to change any part of the queue under their own circumstances if necessary or wanted.

This box wheels around with your troops such as an extra mini Queen (Basically a portable XBow that functions like the queen) including holding CC troops. Unable to be healed by healers or protect itself from enemy CC troops the cart would be used behind troops as a weapon or in the frontlines barging to the middle with the King as its partner.
Rolling towards the Town Hall this siege machine stops at nothing, climbing walls but dealing no harm, rolling around buildings, and dealing heavy damage at whatever is closest, just to get to your enemy's town hall, and it is all powered by one of the queens most trusted archers. When the Town Hall reaches its range the XBow Cart immediately aims to destroy it without hesitation.
The XBOW Cart, while carrying your troops, loses life as it does. Acting as a Battle Blimp and stoping at nothing your CC troops must wait though until the box is dead to release their fury.

This ranged tank would be your first ranged siege machine boosting the ability to fight from the back and the ability to fight like a troop while being a siege machine. Working well with both Golems and Ice Golems, and our heroes the Barb King and The Warden, this new siege machine is exactly what COC needs to get the adrenaline running throughout the players bodies.

If it can't hold CC troops, it's not a Siege Machine.

It is, therefore, a new troop idea.

First of all a siege machine's purpose is to destroy.

It is a RANGED siege machine so the purpose of holding troops is almost useless. If you want it to hold troops then I guess Supercell can add that. But it is a destroyer machine which means it is to destroy like your other machines but without holding troops.

Not every siege machine (siege definition does not define containing troops or artillery inside) must contain troops inside. Therefore it is not a new Machine or a new Troop. It is a new Weapon, but it would be useful to categorize it in the siege weapons because it's purpose is to head to the center and it is a mass artillery weapon.

So sir, please before attacking anyone elses ideas, put more than "it cant hold cc troops". No one in Supercell said it had to, and no one else has.

Woah woah woah hold up...

First of all, Kaledonian is right, the siege machines purpose is NOT to destroy, rather it is to deliver troops to the town hall faster. He never attacked your post, neither am I, instead we are simply stating that this idea does not follow the main purpose of a siege machine. We didn't say it was a bad idea, in fact, a new non-multi-target ranged ground troop would be nice, we haven't had one since the ARCHER. However, this idea just doesn't fit with the rest of the siege machines.

That is why I added if Supercell feels like placing the addition of troops it would be fine. And a siege machines purpose is to destroy buddy. To destroy the town hall and everything in its path. Basically you have to get it to the Town hall before it runs out of life. So escorting this new machine is your purpose. Because it replaces the CC troops you would have had in a Wall Wrecker or something. Your CC will still be available without placing it in the machine. You can spawn them with the rest of your troops escorting this mass destroyer or infront depending on your front or back forces.

Also as I mentioned it is half the size, and it wheels behind the front line. If you want it to hold CC troops I am fine adding that to my definition. But the reason CC troops can be placed in the others is because they are supposed to ONLY deliver. That is the difference between my weapon and the current siege machines.

A bit sensitive are we? Since when has stating a fact been an attack. I offered absolutely no opinion on your idea.

Anyhoo, here's the TH12 release notes:

It won't take you long to find "Siege Machines are mobile Clan Castles".

As to whether it's a "weapon" or "troop" is neither here nor there; it's definitely not a Siege Machine. Cannon Carts in BB are weapons, but are almost universally referred to as troops, by the way.

Yes but it has the life and power of a Demi-Siege machine. So it cannot be a troop it would have to be constructed in the workshop. I will add troops to this. I don't mean to be sensitive. I apologize for that too. But this is the future. And Town Hall 12 was a while ago. Things can still change. And I feel it we put CC troops in this it might defeat the purpose of an escort 🤔 But I have definetely considered your troop thing to also help. I feel that if it contains troops and it heads towards then center it may still stop but if your troops are still escorting then the troops inside the machine would be a booster. I am not sure. First time I made these last night though. So still working out kinks. But I am reconsidering troops to be better.
