New dark elixer troop: Manticore
http://stuffpoint.com/mythical-creat...lustration.jpg
That's what it looks like.
Its a flying troop with the head of a lion, wings of a griffon, and tail of a scorpion. This troop would be a flying troop, with health below a giant.
Since it has two ways to attack, the scorpion tail and the fangs from the lion, the attack rate would be rather fast, like 0.5 a second. The attacks would alternate between the tail attacking and the Manticore biting the building he is attacking.
His range would be about 1.2, so he can still stay behind a lava hound while attacking, but still considered a melee troop.
He would also have a fast movement speed.
To balance this he would have a low DPS.
The troop space would be 7.
Offensive strategies:
Use lava hounds to soak up damage and then send in the Manticores.
Because of its fast attack rate use it to take out weaker defenses fast and first.
Defensive Strategies:
Put stronger defenses out first to stall the attack and damage the Manticore more.
Place air defenses behind ground defenses so the Manticore wastes time attacking buildings that can't damage him.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
