Why this late on Plymouth am I still only seeing 3-4 walls?

[KingdomOfOne]

I was not thinking that at all while writing that post. I'm saying it's not close to what the original plan was and it's slowly going off course.

How can the ship go off course if it isn't finished in the first place?


Edit: Ya, let's get nautical dawg.

If you want to equate it to building the ship, it'd be more like throwing the wood into the water before building the ship. Don't be retarded and say this game hasn't even been created when it's just being updated.

it's slowly going off course.

"Steer to starboard, but keep her head larboard!"??

I said it isn't finished guy, learn to read.

It's a half finished ship chilling in a dry dock.
Nautical all day erryday

You don't seem to understand that they're so far in right now that changing back to what the design docs were looking at will require nearly a full re-haul. And as we know from Haven, that just won't happen.

Alls we need to do is Toe the line, jury rig the mast, pipe down on the uptake, and splice the mainbrace and she will be ship shape

And how you're just blatantly *****.

Because smart people need only but a few layers of walls if they design correctly.

You guys like to talk about your superior design. There's only one thing anyone can say about that: Screenshots or it didn't happen.

[colesie]

This is that design.

Why should more than 4, 6, 10, 14 walls even be necessary?

Raiding isn't really broken imo, purity is, which allows easy-mode raiding through infinite wall layers in short order. And if someone does die, it allows that person to make another replacement in days to keep raiding. Humours just passed the walls up a long time ago so it seems like they're all papery garbage now.

As for base defense designs, why don't you lay one out for scrutiny? I have yet to see one that will take more than a couple hours to get into with 2-3 people that have good stats.

try to do it without treewalls and unliftable boulders

If we're going without treewalls/unliftable boulders...

Wall > wall/brazier combo (make wall, break every 2nd wall piece, put brazier in between) > wall, repeat. Then scatter gates so only one tile is bashable at any time. Then when you're finished but claim stone in front of one tile of the last gate.

WITH treewalls/unliftables/gay ****

Do this:
Wall > wall/brazier combo (make wall, break every 2nd wall piece, put brazier in between) > wall, repeat. Tree wall. As many as you can manage. Glitched stone walls (at least one). Then make walls with sleds under them. Break wall segment, pull sled in, rebuild wall. Makes for uber unliftable wall tile. Then scatter gates so only one tile is bashable at any time. Then when you're finished but claim stone in front of one tile of the last gate. Another thing is to surround your wall with auth objects like flags or stones and leave one tile open so it's not "bug abuse" since you can TECHNICALLY get in.

THAT is how you defend your ****. I've known about all of that since alpha (minus tree walls) but it's just a real ***** to do and it's super lame imo.

Chief will no doubt say "Hue hue hue that's only a fraction of what we do" but people have been to their walls and can confirm and even people inside will admit it.

This is that design.

Coles really wishes he knew how the Tribal land defenses work. He definitely has some good ideas in there but the Tribe lands are full of engineering marvels that somebody like the Coles could not even comprehend.
