[feature] Citadel retalliation damage

In a recent Pantheon game I wound up fighting a zero opponent fight against just the static defences + reinforcements. (reported elsewhere)

I took the enemy portal and cleaned out all the towers, but I wound up taking quite a while to kill the enemy Citadel, as it appears to deal massive retalliation damage each time it's hit. My (unupgraded, save new types) reinforcements that attacked the citadel each died in 2 attacks on their part. When attacking it myself it turned out I took 500 damage on each normal attack. (not when using spells though)

Is this as intended?

In game modes where destroying the citadel is not the main objective - Slaughter, Domination, and Fortress - you can still win by destroying the citadel but as an incentive to meet game objectives the enemy citadel has powerful thorns - you take damage every time you hit it. 

Of course if your objective is to kill a given number of enemy Demigods and none spawned then you have to do it the hard way...

Ah, I see. Would the non damage taking from spells (and presumably other skills) be a bug then?
