What I'd consider to be one of the harder and potentially game breaking changes is the addition of a new troop, this is a rough draft of my suggestion and would no doubt be better with suggestions and feedback.
Firsly I'd implement this troop likely into town hall 8.
"Banner carrier" as a possible name.
This unit is support, holding the standard of your current clans flag (or perhaps just plain grey when unaffiliated), and a war regalia relevant to your clans primary and secondary colours, this slightly dark elixer induced giant will target your largest grouping of units, targeting the center point of the group & slightly buffering offence and defence.
With a fully upgraded level of 4
TH8 (1), TH9 (2), TH10 (4).
With starting stats of:
Radius - 3+1+1+1
Health - 1,500+300+300+400
Speed - 9+3+2+2
Capacity - 16(15?)
Cost - (Dark) 400+200+150+100
Increasing slightly per level, this unit rather than attacking will yield bonuses to units within radius and itself, when positioned central to a group will distract defensives.
-20% damage from mortars
-5% damage from point defence
+ 15% damage increase
+ 2 Speed to units within radius
When this unit has the attention of a wizard towers splash damage on additional units is reduced by 30%.
The idea is that this unit will trail behind most assaults, when groups cluster onto a building it's given time to catch up and in doing so units recieve the boosts and given time, defensive cover.
My original concept was to slightly improve farming with barch and/or giants whilst not making them particularly overpowered, so most importantly - the bonus does not stack.
So my questions to you all,
could this work?
Can you suggest a way to better implement this idea or perhaps add to it?
I don't particularly feel this game needs additional units at this moment in time but if correctly done wouldn't detract from the experience.
Opinions?
