Moats

When you think of middle ages what do you imagine? A castle surrounded by strong walls, covered in cannons and archer towers, and a nice moat with alligators surrounding it. Now, what are we missing? A moat. My idea for a moat would act kind of like a wall in that it slows the enemy down. When troops have to cross water they would ethier swim or walk across. How much slower they would be exactly i need help withbc i dont know the numerical data in coc at all. Another thing that would greatly add to having a moat could be new water troops, such as a ferryman who would bring troops across in his rowboat. I also think itd be great if aligators could somehow be put in the water so theyd be being damaged while crossing. If you like any of theese ideas or think i should just change some please tell me. Thanks

Im releasing a thread soon about Siege troops, and a Siege Workshop. These would fit together nicely, I think the moat should take time to build, and a lot of time to move, from one position to another. This is just because, man made rivers of water would take along time

maybe when ur "placing" a river spot ur builder digs it out and buckets water in and you could get rid of a spot for a cost and the builder could be bucketing it out and shoveling dirt back in

Sounds like a fun idea to add more variety.

Would hogs or jump spell work over it?

It wouldn't slow air attacks which are very popular at present

great!

I agree everything!

maybe just the alligators seems exaggerated

My own moat idea didn't include a Siege Workshop, but I feel I came up with some good ideas as well. I discovered though that things like moats can't be suggested but I'd still like to talk about the possibilities that a moat would bring to CoC game-play, especially when I've thought of 3 different kinds in detail: Traditional Water Moat, Magma Moats and Slime Moats.

im not for sure if things should be able to jump it. maybe 1 moat block would be jumpable but multiple ones wouldnt
