Ok, so there's been a ton of speculation about the new troop. So I thought i would do some digging and maybe try to figure it out.

first off is graphics. Since CoC was new many barrack and dark barrack upgrades had hints in their appearance that referenced what troop was unlocked. However not all upgrades to the normal barrack have references.


Normal Barrack:
L1 barbarian unlocked, swords in front.
L2 archer unlocked, target and arrows added.
L3 goblin unlocked, no reference.
L4 giant unlocked, no reference.
L5 WallBreaker unlocked, bombs and bones added.
L6 balloon unlocked, balloon launch and rope tethers added.
L7 wizard unlocked, spell cauldron added.
L8 healer unlocked, golden platform added.
L9 dragon unlocked, scorched air louvre with fire below added.
L10 pekka unlocked, grey metal added and pekka head on roof.


as you can see there are only 2 normal barrack upgrades that don't have a reference to the troop they unlock. Now let's look at the dark barracks.


L1 minion unlocked, cauldron of purple substance( minion vomit?) added.
L2 hog rider unlocked, hammer of hog rider added.
L3 Valkyrie unlocked, axe of Valkyrie added.
L4 golem unlocked, arm and hand of golem added.
L5 witch unlocked, skulls from witches staff added, blue fabric(resembling witch cloak) added.


as you can see all 5 dark barracks appear to have a reference to the troop unlocked at each level. Remember that, we'll come back to the graphics....




Further digging brings us to Galadons sneak peak video. SC said a hint to the troop is in his sneak peak video. Lots of people are saying look at the Phoenix. However the Phoenix on the shield has ALWAYS been apart of Galadons video intros so i don't think it has anything to do with the troop. His choice of wording in 3 sentences is what piqued my interest.


'what could be hidden in the fiery looking dark barracks?'
'our burning anticipation.'
'what could top the golem?'

the first 2 quotes he sounds out of character, and both times references fire. This could mean the graphics from the level 6 dark barracks coupled with Galadons wording do in fact men the new troop will have some sort of fire aspect. Wether its a troop that breaths fire, or a troop that is set aflame, is unsure. However the references on each level of the barrack/dark barracks have indicated more times than not the ability of troops rather than the look. So my guess is the new DE troop will shoot or spit or breathe fire/lava.


Galadons final quote is what really made me think. He says 'What could too the golem?' Huh? The golem was unlocked with the L4 Dark Barrack. The witch topped the golem. The fact he said golem makes me think the new troop will be a tank.



So there you have it, i dont know what it will be called or look like but my guess is the new DE troop will be a fire breathing/shooting tanking unit. Don't flame me too bad.

other original warcraft(orcs vs humans) units that haven't been used are paladins, ballistas, calapults, and warships. I'm not talking about WOW, I'm talking about the 1996 original warcraft in which COC has many coincidental similarities.

Another guess, looking the Skull, and the aspect of it being a Dark Forces Troop, could it be a Balarog, the types shown in LOTR Series? From the fiery depths of the earth.

Perhaps... the head on top looks vaguely similar to that of the image below.

For some reason it doesn't accept JPG files... link can be found to image HERE.

#3a Forum exclusive Sneak Peek
Hero regeneration time has been greatly reduced on all levels

Looking at the skull on top of Barracks, with Lava all over and a stone-age structure, it seems the troop is either a Big Cat or a Balarog (as shown in LOTR series). Can't wait.
