New Dark Troop: Phantom

[devin68fitch]

The Phantom is a dark barracks troop. The Phantom, as the name suggests, is a ghost like entity. Like any ghost, it can of course go through walls. It is only detectable by towers run by troops like the archer tower, wizard tower, heros, and clan castle troops. Im no good at art and i dont know how to put up a picture but i can describe it and i found 2 links to help you all get a better image of it.

This is the body shape:

These are the eyes:

The sword it he Phantom will carry will be the same as the current barbarian sword except in an pale green hilt with a darkish blade.

I originally found the pictures on bing images and traced them to their cites. Of course i own none of the artwork and all credit goes to the creators.

Its body is a shadowy dark haze in the shape of an upside down tear drop. The Phantom has faintly glowing red triangular eyes and leaves a trail of brightly glowing pale green ectoplasm behind.

Leaves a trail of glowing pale green ectoplasm behind.

I really think this troop has potential. I greatly appreciate any input and suggestions. I will tweak the troops stats and description according to the comment. Disappointingly I changed the favorite target to any. A troop that targets the town hall was way too unrealistic and the troop's description now makes sense. Also big thanks to SkyMage1001 for the help with my Phantom👻.

I think that the housing space and Dark Elixer cost should be higher.

[spongeob1234]

20 housing space and 250 dark elixir

[spongeob1234]

I think with my changes it has great potential

[Fpfp33]

but I thought ghosts can't physically touch anything therefore, they cannot attack anything

I think the housing space should be higher but the highest should be 15 due to its low hit points. I think between 8-15 housing space is good. If it had 20 housing space then i should increase the health to around 250. I think that the cost should be increased as well and i have made changes accordingly.

It attacks by firing a ball of ectoplasm.

Soo... This is like some hog rider/wizard type troop that goes for the town hall? I dont support this but good luck!

Its more of a dark goblin type troop. I appreciate your honesty.

Phantom would be way too overpowered since it targets the town hall. If i had phantoms and used it for every attack, i would be in the top 200. I'd highly recommened you change the targeting system. Other than that it will do fine during battle! Hope SC takes time seeing this thread.
