Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Boom Beach is a combat strategy game with similar gameplay to Clash of Clans made by the same developer, Supercell. It's on both iOS and Android.You are a player that is specifically sent to the archipelago to free the enslaved islanders from Hammerman and his Blackguard Armies. As you build up your bases to get stronger, more powerful Blackguard bases appear, including mercenaries, resource bases, and factory bases.Despite the gameplay being similar to its other game Clash of Clans (even having a Builder Base like mode), it has a lot of distinct mechanics that separates itself from its more popular counterpart. Instead of spells, you use the Gunboat to support your armies, especially in redirecting them. Also, when your Headquarters are destroyed, rather than giving you a star, the raid instantly ends. There are also statues power stones that can help aid your preferred playstyle. Finally, even though you can join a task force which is basically a clan, instead of war with an opposing task force, you engage in operations that has you defeat the blackguard factories.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })

Artificial Stupidity: Enforced. Like Clash of Clans, units in Boom Beach follow their own AI presets. The difference here is that all units (excluding the Medic and the hero Dr. Kavan) are coded to attack the closest building they see, regardless of building type or unit/defensive building strengths and weaknesses. It is up to you to provide direction/fire support to your troops through the gunboat's various abilities in order to succeed. If there are no other troops left in the vicinity, Medics (and Dr. Kavan) will stand completely still, even when in range of a defensive building and unlike Clash of Clans, the battle won't auto end if they are the only troops left forcing you to retreat to save time.

Arbitrary Weapon Range: The Mortar, Rocket Launcher, Shock Launcher, and Grappler all have them to balance their strengths (and to prevent the Grappler from grappling something right next to them). Machine Guns initially didn't have this feature, but it was added in the June 2017 update. The Rocket Launcher's is larger than usual to balance its extreme range and area attacks; the Machine Gun's is smaller than usual.
