Tombstone

What it looks like

The Tombstone is a Rare card that is unlocked from the Bone Pit (Arena 2). It spawns a building with moderate hitpoints. Every 3.5 seconds, the Tombstone will passively summon a group of two Skeletons, with a 0.5 seconds delay from each other. When destroyed, it will also spawn four Skeletons. It appears as a coffin with a mounted gravestone that has a skull and a bone printed on it and a wooden plank located on both sides serving as a trapdoor, and emits a team-colored glow. A Tombstone card costs 3 Elixir to deploy.

Trivia

• The Tombstone's appearance is inspired by the Halloween Headstone obstacle from Clash of Clans.
• The Tombstone is 1 of 15 cards associated with Skeletons, with the others being Bomber, Skeleton Dragons, Skeleton Barrel, Bomb Tower, Guards, Skeleton Army, Witch, Balloon, Giant Skeleton, Wall Breakers, Super Witch, Graveyard, Skeleton King, and of course, Skeletons. In the Arabic and Vietnamese language settings of the game, the Tombstone's name translates to "Headstone". In the Norwegian, Korean, Chinese, and Thai language settings of the game, the Tombstone's name translates to "Gravestone", "Skull Tomb", "Skull Tombstone", and "Grave Marker" respectively. The Tombstone, Bomber, and Skeletons are the only cards associated with Skeletons that are unlocked in Bone Pit. Despite other cards that spawn Skeletons having 3 Star Levels, the Tombstone only has 2 Star Levels. This trait is also shared with the Witch.
• The Tombstone, along with the Cannon, are the cheapest buildings, costing 3 Elixir.
• The Tombstone's stats are the highest or lowest among all buildings. More specifically: The Tombstone has the lowest hitpoints of all buildings, with 772 hitpoints at Level 15, and 250 hitpoints at Level 3. This Tombstone loses the least hitpoints per second of all buildings, with 25.7 hitpoints per second at Level 15, and 8.3 hitpoints per second at Level 3.
• The Tombstone is one of the first buidling cards to be featured in a Trainer's deck, alongside the Cannon, Goblin Hut, Bomb Tower, Inferno Tower, and Barbarian Hut.

There was also a larger Tombstone with 2,500 hitpoints, that did not lose hitpoints, would spawn 3 Guards every 15 seconds, and would spawn a Skeleton King after death.
