    GG, he has no inner walls as a fallback line. If he gets multiple breaches and they make it to the dwellings, its over. They'll turn into a wave that will sweep across the colony.

    Yea, it kills him EVERY time. Once one zombie climbs the wall, he is always dead, because he has nothing to zone the defected area off. He leaves himself WIDE open. He is never going to win if he keeps on destroying his inner defenses. He doesn't even have random towers/ballista anywhere in side of his city. Once his walls are breached he is instantly dead.

    Jo Me I mean if you get a breach the resources you lose guarantees you cannot win even if you have a second line of defense. You should really just have an absurd first defense

    The one things that grinds my gears while watching you play over and over again, is how you destroy your inner walls. LEAVE THEM, during the final wave, the more walls that you have to help hold that final wave off WILL determine if you win or not. Those extra inner walls give you precious time to think, rebuild and or make more soldiers and hold them off from getting to your city hall. STOP destroying your walls that you build inside of your city.

    You have a point. But the walls and towers cost a lot in upkeeps over time, thus gutting his rescources supply and making it harder for him to expand. A sort of "Do we have defenses for a dying colony or do we have land for a defenseless colony?"

    If you are planning to lose everything but the innermost walls then you have already lost. Getting resources early means you can get more economy which means more resources which means more economy and so on. It compounds like interest. 100 extra gold at the start of the game could mean 20 more titans by the final wave. He is already far-far behind what you could have at this stage in the game. I don't know what difficulty he is playing on, but unless he is playing on the easiest settings he really needs to use everything he has.

    Yeah, I was gonna say, it just seems like he's fucking himself over if his first set of walls go down. Because then there is nothing stopping/slowing down the zombies. If he wants to tear them down for resources, I think he should only tear down one layer. That way he still has something to stop any zombie snowballs.

    For everyone complaining about the destroying inner walls, sometimes you need the resources back, and more often than not you'll need the take down inner walls to make space for things like houses or mills. The optimal solution to the final wave is to not let them break through your first line of defense in the first place. To put THAT in perspective, the first time I won at this was the game that I build 107 executioners. all but like...5, were on the outer expanses of my walls, and I destroyed plenty of inner walls that playthrough to make room for houses that i desperatly needed to keep the income needed to run that many executioners.

    I think the reason everything goes black and you can see the zombies when the wreak a bunch of stuff is because now that they are disabled they no longer have a 'sight radius' which I believe you can see the exact distance somehow on each building. If a building is not up and running it can't 'see' things, which means you can't. I could be completely wrong but I THINK that's why everything goes dark.

    Splat... Defend in depth... Also; GOLD GOLD GOLD - you can buy the resources you need OR get them from destroying enemy towns (which means - race to Titans) - take the sting out of the final wave. + don't forget you can turn stuff off, so leave the defences standing in the interior - turn them on when you get a break through.

    If there is no build cap, don't you think it is a waste to demo your buildings just to move them a little further? I mean, if you demo something, you waste time and resources doing so. Try expanding without demo-ing your buildings. Personally, I think every little bit counts towards the end.

    there are loads of people talking about inner walls and blah blah and some people syaing he needs the resources. BOTH POINTS ARE CORRECT, have SOME inner defenses and don't make them to big. make a FEW inner walls to seperate large chunks and upgrade the walls as far as possible only if you have resources to spare. and put in one maybe two balista if any at all. (just keep a couple sets of walls on the inside, make them compact and keep from using alot of resources)

  • @ashtonh991

    Splat. I was with you and thought it would be stupid. But its more economically workable. Soldiers take food, cost more (both to make and their upkeep) I've found by watching winning runs A. Lot. Use like thirty rangers. And then you have a much quieter and faster mobile force. Up until you gets titans. Then just ditch the rangers.

  • @pelyphin0
    @pelyphin06 жыл бұрын

    If you get a group of rangers and run them near an attacking horde, the zombies will start following them - so you can lead some off toward your stronger walls, or just kite them around in front of your defenses.

  • @Thalanox

    Or use a single ranger to bait the zombies around a group of rangers ready and waiting to kill some zeds. If a unit is moving, then it isn't shooting. You can get a lot of units killed by doing that. I think it's best to have units either attack-move, or use control groups to make a staggered advancing formation. Have one group give covering fire to the other group while group 2 moves. After group 2 stops moving, group 1 starts moving, etc.

    you shoukd make your walls rounded this is a sort of old way the europeans did it in the viking age for one its easier to defend and you can fit more in smaller spaces

    Why would you tear the walls down? that way if you lose one wall, its a guaranteed wipe whilst when you keep older ones, you can fall back to those and maybe avoid getting wiped entirely.

    Chrischi3LPs though the walls do cost upkeep, so he may not be able to expand as much as he wants to due to the mass ammount of walls that he had sucking away at his rescources due to upkeep

    don't remove walls and expand all the way to the edges with multiple barriers.

    Titans, titans, titans and more Titans. You want at least 3 hitsquads of Titans around 6-9 each so that when the final wave comes you can move them around to reinforce multiple breaches.

    Why not keep the layers of walls and turrets incase a break through happens you have a spot to fall back to.
