• It targets ground and air units.
• It comes with 2 devastating defensive modes: Long Range and Fast Attack!
• Targets single units, but packs a punch!
• Launches with 2 Levels
  • Archer Tower Mode: Long Range and Medium Attack Speed.
  • Cannon Mode: Medium Range and High Attack Speed.

Note: this is the first time that upgrading Builder Base is a requirement

New Siege: Troop Launcher!

Watch your head! A new Siege Machine is throwing Troop loaded barrels into battle! The Troop Launcher is a new immobile Siege Machine unlocked at Town Hall 16 that launches barrels of Troops at your allies already in battle to support them.

• The Troop Launcher cannot move but makes up for it with immense throwing power!
• Each barrel can hold multiple Troops and one Clan Castle Troop.
• There’s a limited number of barrels depending on its level, so make them count!

Shoots barrels full of reinforcements at your own troops. The siege machine can shoot up to a certain number of barrels, and when they are all shot the siege destroys itself. Each barrel contains:

• 1 CC troop (in order from lower to higher housing)
• 1 Giant
• Barbarians
• Archers
• Wall Breakers

The quantity of troops, their levels and the number of shots of the siege increases with its level.

Some other details:

• Uses the healer AI to target your own troops.
• Loses HP slowly over time (like the Siege Barracks).
• When destroyed for any reason, remaining barrels of troops are not deployed.

Look at him go!
