defensive building: Fans

[Frobob]

A new defensive building could be a giant fan that could do different things depending on how you would want to play this...
- it could just slow troops (no damage) coming towards but propel troops going away
-it could blow back troops
- it could have goblins or something letting rock go into the fans that would hit troops(for damage)
Or it could have a mix of damage and non damaging effects.
Could be ground and air?



Maybe heavy troops(pekka, golem, dragons maybe?) wouldn't be affected. But maybe 2x for all other air troops

Thought on this idea?

This would be too OP, a troops would never get into the base.

It doesn't have to be OP. It could be only like a 10% speed decrease with 25DPS. Or you could use more heavy troops in your attacks. I think it would open up a different strategy to making armies.

I believe this idea has been ruled out. Please visit and read the ruled out page before posting, this is very similar to the vortex trap that has been ruled out. http://bit.do/ruledout

I did read the ruled out page. And I don't think this idea is really close to that at all. Firstly it's not a trap. And secondly it doest suck up anything, it's a fan it blows wind at a target that slows them and maybe it adds a bit of damage too. So kind of like an archer tower that blows wind too

This idea doesn't seem that bad anymore now, does it?

lol

it still sounds bad

the nature of the joke has changed though

[WarrenJames]

Oh wow, still down. lol The listed time to check back got bumped up with two "wait 30 min" messages. So an hour longer than the 1½ hours that was originally stated.

Can easily believe that. There are more than a few unprecedented changes here.

On a side note, after seeing the sneak preview vidoes, especially for the Air Sweeper, I may have to rework my avid use of dragons now lol. Oh well. Was interesting while it lasted. Can't do tactless single unit raids forever.

Though Dragon-Minion might be good, given how minions are able to better handle the push back...

And.. so much for those Zap one Air Defense on a TH7 for Mass-Dragon 'win-button'. (Oh darn )

Really though! Where the heck did the Air Sweeper idea come from?! I can't recall seeing it ever mentioned here. I'm not 100% sure, but I really can't remember seeing a word of this in the forum. (yes, I know there is a chance Supercell staff came up with it on there own. But there have been a lot of ides posted here too)
...

Ok.. I kinda sorta remember this idea.

what a joke huh? i guess nothing is ruled out really, get ready for more whining about how the game isnt fair
