Ideas for troops

The Puppeteer:
What he does is manuipulate your troops to make them go where he wants, and you tell him what you want to hit.
Manipulation: 25 troops at once*, and you can choose if all of one kind or if to control a bunch of them
Targets: Ground
Range:5 tiles
Hitpoints:150
Training cost: I'll let you decide the cost, even though I think it should be a dark elixir troop.

What he looks like: He is a huge flying unit which has threads coming down from his hands, which only become visible when you select to control a unit. I think he would kind of look like a flying joker with a big mantel, and he can only be targeted by archer towers and wizard towers.

You can upgrade him to up to lvl 3, and at lvl 2 he can control 5 troops more. At lvl 3 he can control heroes and 10 troops more.

*The troops would count as in for how much space they take up, e.g. Wizards=4 each, barbs 1 each and so on.


The Armament Master

Attack: 40 with Sword, 35 with bow.
Movement Speed: 16
Hitpoints: 60

This white-skinned elf (with white eyes)with all sorts of weapons in his belt(hooks, bombs etc. etc.) can choose what to attack with! It can attack with a sword or a bow(crossbow), and it chooses it's weapon depending on what it's going against.

I'll let you people choose if dark elixir or elixir troop, and let me know if it's any good....

Unique ideA! Hopefully normal elixir!

Nice! Seems pretty cool! Very interesting idea!

I don't think a puppeteer would be good because firstly fifty troops, which is a hell load would all pile on one target. It also defeats the purpose of favourite target and it wouldn't work because faster units could have destroyed the target while balloons or giants are still trailing behind. And if it was going to be a reality, it would cost 1 elixir as it would be so bad.

Please let me know what you think and give constructive feedback!

This is a constructive/negative feedback. I like the fact you brought up the speed factor and the quantity of troops, but I didn't like the 1 elixir cost -.-". Anyway, good feedback.

Anyway, perhaps he can only control troops which have a favourite target set as any? There are a lot of them, and the ones with favourite targets (goblins, giants) can't be controlled! The speed factor is a slight problem... Maybe they would all move to the speed of the slowest troop? Or maybe you could tell a bunch of archers to go ahead and then tell the barbs to go there as well.
I changed it now so that he can only target ground units.
Housing space.....10?
Thie is what he would look like

Yeah that would actually work.

Are you going to post any more troop ideas here?

Perhaps, if I can think of a good troop which people will like, yes.

Pretty nice idea although it might have to be simplified a little.

Cheers!
