Quick sand spell

A new spell that turns the ground under you enemies wall or structures into quick sand.

The idea sounds interesting, but it needs way more detail

Needs more detail

I'm thinking deffencive. It's like a bomb, hidden from the enemy and when it's tripped 9 squares become quick sand and suck down all the troops in it. As an offencive weapon, on a small scale wall breakers could be retrofit with the spell instead of a bomb and take down a whole section of wall, building or maybe even a defending Barbarian king. But if you like your spells traditional then on a large scale it's like any other spell. Dropped on targets and watch them sink. Pricing scale, this spell would clean the battle field of mortars and cannons so the price should reflect that. Don't make it too cheap or prolific. On a small scale 1000 Elixir + the price of the wall breaker you use. On a large scale 50000 Elixir and you get just 1.

I really like the trap idea. Maybe you can make it so that the troops that have more than something speed can escape. To tanky troops it deals damage but doesnt kill them.

I like it. Goblins Skeletons and Wall breakers move so fast they run right over it unless the WB is carrying a heavy bomb then down they go along with Barbariab, archers and wizards. Giants, Barb kings, Queens, Pekkas and large Golems get sucked in it but eventually crawl out. Small golems sink in and stay there. Witches float over it and can raise any trapped troops out of the Quick sand.

Yeah those ideas are all really good.

If its a spell then it should turn the materials that make up the structures(any and all structres, even walls) to sand to make it a lot easier to break temporarily with a radius like the rage spell (like tripling the damage dealt to it)

That would be awesome. Sort of like a freeze spell but maybe it would actually make the troops disappear at a certain level!

I agree that It wouldn't really work as a spell, just because there's already freeze. But a trap would work!
