[203] Hill Massacre

Idk why the name hill massacre.
Fortifying hills is the most effective and cheapest way of building, if we don't mention skybridges.
There can be lots of modifications from these buildings, mainly because the landscape will be a bit different in every map. But basically what there is good to be:
-Hill covered with stone to prevent diggers
-A doorway for your team, let it be teamdoors or drawbridges, but no ladders
-If you don't have much teammates helping, it is good to make a stone tower like in the pictures
-Overhangs to prevent bomb jumpers and arrow climbers
- Archer shooting spot



The ''stone tower'' needs more explaining I guess. In build 203, dropping stones will not destroy castle background that have ladders on them. This allows cheap traps, that are pretty damn effective, but that need someone to ''activate'' them.

How it works:
Enemy attacking stone wall below > Cut the supporting castle background > Enemy dies

Can kill up to 200 enemies. (If it goes over 200, I'm quite sure the server will crash)

 

Very nice simple, straight forward construction, I would like to see more of these ingame :)

 

havent quite gotten the hang of this yet but it looks neat

 

I think this deserves recognition all on it's own, I didn't know this.

 

Ditto. That's sneaky. I like it.

 

Wow, that works pretty well.

 

it usually requires more stone than i possess. hope we get stockpiles

 

Sometimes falling blocks wiggles to left or right.Have you seen it not going through gap,but damaging gap's edges?It happened with me twice.

 

fiddling with this

 

This happens, it's for eyecandy. You shouldn't place the rock very far from the hole.

That's neat! Yea, you can be very creative with these simple and easy-to-place constructions.

 

I've thought of some neat idea on this structure,but sadly,I dont have time to draw it right now,and I cant make it in-game as my KAG crashes for some odd reason.Maybe I'll get some free time tomorrow.

 

Monst there's one issue of the (I call it the Contrary Bomb Jump) holding your shield above your head as a knight and bomb jumping like that, that allows for HUGE distance coverage and height too.

 

Done!Basically its an outlaw son of Hill Massacre and Hillside trapmaster , but with a twist - you can snipe people under yourself with rocks or call rock exterminatus upon the enemy - all in a few clicks :



I have a problem with free build now : every time I start using trapdoors my game crashes(only in free build),so this one was build right on the battlefield with limited resourses,alone.

It abuses glitch,that falling rock won't destroy background with ladder on it. [203]

Trap(blue):to drop a single rock, destroy background right under it.To drop down all rocks at once remove blocks with blue dots.(when you want an increased chance of hitting single target or when you want to destroy crowd)

Flaws(Red):Here's the flaws because I was building it alone and other engies were not helping,but spoiling it.
1).Unfinished and thin roof - perfect target for catapilt
2).Trapdoors stop rocks from falling down.Grr,stupid teammates!
3).1 layer of rocks is not durable to keep this structure on.

 

Yeah, trapdoors are known to crash the game in the editor.

 

Its a nice base and trap.
and itll stay that way until one of the builders starts to 'upgrade' it.
