Bomb Tower

What it looks like

The Bomb Tower is a Rare card that is unlocked at Spell Valley (Arena 4). It spawns an area-damage, ground-targeting, long-ranged, building with high hitpoints and moderate damage. When defeated, it drops a bomb which explodes after 3 seconds, dealing damage. The building is made of wood, surrounded by steel rams, held together by ropes on the sides, and has a team-colored stripe of paint on it, with a Bomber located at the top. A Bomb Tower card costs 4 Elixir to deploy.
