Elder Sandworm

Overview
The sandworms are truly impressive beasts. The event-only encounter entitled, Elder Sandworm, truly lives up to its name. The Elder Sandworm, labeled as a Groundshaker in the game, is truly an impressive looking beast. Its attack is also something magnificent to behold - a giant vomit bath that hits 3 squares for over 250 damage!!

Despite that, it's weakness is its attack limitations which you can exploit, allowing any player to beat this thing with a single Trooper!

The Elder Sandworm can only attack the 3 squares in front of it, up to two rows away. Placing a single trooper off to either far sides will render the lone Elder Sandworm helpless.

There is a second version of the Elder Sandworm encounter, which boasts a much beefier Groundshaker (1100 HP and armor!!), and of course greater rewards. In this case, the Elder is accompanied by 4 other sandworms, 2x Sandworm Grubling and 2x smaller Groundshakers. As long as you stay out of the danger zone and take out the other Sandworms, you'll can reap the high SP rewards!

Note: You cannot attack an Elder Sandworm on another player's nation without encountering a server error.
