    I used to do similar stuff like this, when you could squeeze through one tile gaps.
    I called them "bunkers". Since there were this squeeze bug, ally units could get through that one door and enemies couldn't get out without bombs.

    I wouldn't recommend putting this at the base of any tower, as it opens it up for bombs and entombers.

    On its own the Claustrophobia trap is great and simple.

    as killatron said it is vulnerable to bombs and the like PLUS the trap is a great simple form of defense on its own-
    (prostosuper im shameless in this next regard)

    -Just widen the base of the structure tho if interested in adding it to a direct tower and it should be much more sturdy, and a add a knee capper for good measure! :D like this:

    I think the idea is great, but it can't be used a lot. On big servers where there are a lot of noobs (no pun intended), you will see that :

    1) builders of your team going inside, getting stuck, destroying it
    2) knights of your team going inside, getting stuck, bombing it
    3) people vote-kicking them for 'griefing'

    In a small (4/5) team, that may actually work if everyone is aware that it is a trap...

    I've been using this trap over and over. Many people refuse to suicide, and would rather wait for team mates to come to the rescue. This is all fine with me, as it effectively lowers their team number by 1 for however long they're in there. Also, I think it is very useful for public shaming!

    As the above poster said, all can, but only knights can get out. Although I suppose that they can't now, as of build 393.
