Tack Shooter (BTD7)

The Tack Shooter is a circular machine that sprays 8 tacks per volley in a circular formation. This makes it great on corners, intersections, or tri-points. Its ability unlocked at Tier 4, Path 2 sprays 75 blades all over the screen from the Tack Shooter's location, dealing great damage to all Bloons. Tier 5 and Tier 6 on the same path further enhance this ability, as Tier 5 upgrades this maelstrom to have 100 blades, each that can deal 3 damage to 4 Bloons at maximum. Tier 6 increases the number of blades to 200 and if placed correctly, allows the Tier 6 maelstrom to completely wipeout 7 BFBs or equivalent. The other tier 6 upgrades allows the Tack Shooter to fire at the rate of a Super Monkey and spray volleys of 50 tacks or allow the Tack Shooter to become a support tower, still having a relatively short attack range but have a large influence range that allows all projectiles thrown by towers in the influence range to provide 3x as much cash than normal by popping Bloons. The influence range is about 1.5x as long as a 0-0-1 Dart Monkey in Bloons TD 6.
