Hey I don't know if I missed it....but what is the attack speed on this?

Sorry,it was a little hard to find. The attack speed is 3 seconds.

Really love it!

I really appreciate it, thanks for commenting!

Decrease the dps so that 2 small bombs can destroy it at max level.

Hmm, lowering DPS so only two small bombs can destroy it?

I don't feel I need to fiddle with HP right now, the troop would be a huge disappointment if it dies to just weak little bombs. Good news is that it will receive more damage from every bomb.

So basically this does the same thing as the Ice Wizard in CR? That would probably satisfy players more than a Cannoneer would

I wouldn't be lazy to say something as basically, but I see where you're coming from.
I don't play CR, but I see how you could make an assumption. From what I've read about the Ice Wizard, he slows down both a tower/card's movement and attack speed, while the Cannoneer only reduces the DPS of a defense, and does not affect movement speed or attack speed of troops or defenses.

Every idea I've seen where a unit slows down or temporarily immobilizes a defense or troop has never gotten any attention, and would get just as much criticism today because of CR's Ice Wizard.

The point of this forum is to bring something NEW to Clash of Clans, meaning you will most likely never see anything from other SC games. Have you ever seen criticism of an idea because it has the same concept? People hate on them.

My idea has been around long before CR's new cards, and it bothers me to see concepts from newer games become a possible replacement in other people's eyes.

Overall, my idea is exclusively for Clash of Clans; just because something like the Ice Wizard works well in CR does not mean it could work as well in Clash. I think CR is a very easy game(people just spam cards) and does not take as much time to become good. My point is, we need different concept for similar games. If every troop was in both Clash and CR it would be a bit of an offset. Each game needs to be different from the other, this includes different troops, fundamentals, tactics, etc.

Let me know what else you're thinking.

Glad you like it. I'd like to know how you would use this troop in your armies, what strategies would you use with the Cannoneer?

A few updates to the picture have been added, take a look!

Really like the artwork for this troop. I think I would like this design in the game in substitution for the musketeer, because to me they basically seem to me like the same thing, except for the splash damage on death or the reduced damage for the defenses that are being fired upon

Glad you like the artwork and concept.

Well, the Cannoneer and Musketeer are two completely different troops, and I came up with this idea months and months before Clash Royals release. I've had people say this troop is exactly like the Musketeer, but this concept, as a whole, has been around longer. Of course, SC could have had the Musketeer throughout the game's development cycle the whole time, but I was unaware.

There is a lot of controversy between looks. Clash of Clans and Clash Royale both have the same troops, but they also have different ones, as well. People don't even know about my idea, and say they want the Musketeer in CoC. After seeing it they immediately think: "Clash Royale Musketeer Copy" and say negative things. After receiving the concept art I knew people would think this way, but these two troops are different, and we can't have all the same troops in these two similar games. This is why I like to think the Cannoneer's art would work well, as it doesn't completely copy the Musketeer as many people like to say.

Thanks a lot for commenting, let me know if you have any questions later on.

This is incredible!! This is by far the best Cannoneer idea I have seen, ever!!
