The Maple Leaf

If you notice any flaws in the design or any improvements that could be made, please reply to this thread.
I am also taking advice on what monsters to put in the bunkers.
All help is much appreciated.

Your ADTs are cataprone. If i wanted to attack you i would fling everything from then north corner because air protection there is minimal

The point of the yard is you don't know where they are. He can change the position of the ADTs after every attack. The only thing I don't like is the vulnerability of the housing.

And for the monsters: Rocket DAVEs and Eyeras. <--Eye-ras especially pissy when it comes to attacking air monsters, DAVEs take a long time to kill with a single tera if it has a zaf covering it.

Hide and seek yard. Good work! I love it

Thanks, took me most of Sunday night.
I'll see what I can do about bringing the housings in a little.

Dont box up your towers. Its bad as it will cause chews.

Chews? Please explain.

Chews happen when there is no entry to a building because the entrance is blocked up, thus monsters will chew at the walls just to get through to the buildings. The disadvantage of boxing in towers without entrances will not let monsters path at all. In fact your yard is full of it. I'll show u the examples.


This may be a bit confusing though.
Purple represents blockage of entrance, and monsters will chew
Yellow represents where monsters will DEFINITELY chew there
Black represents too long pathing

[Edit]: Oh wait, the silo blocks the entrance to the Magma towers and the magma tower blocks the entrance to the Quake tower.

Hope this helps.


When entrances are blocked, it means that monsters see it as "boxed in" and same thing happens, chews. So leaving a 0.25 gap is preferred.
The study of chews is very interesting and there is more to it, and I can proudly say that I have mastered chews and how to avoid them.

More examples with chews due to blockage in entrance.

The silo blocks the path the the ADT, so monsters will see it as boxed in and thus cause a chew.

Here are some test results:

Thank you! This is very interesting and I will modify my yard accordingly!
Expect to see an improved version by the end of the week.
