    This is something you can consider making because:
    • It's not hard to make
    • Don't really need that much supplies
    • Has everything that an archer needs

    What do you guys think?

    I have seen that before, but this version is a much upgraded version, they are extremely effective on the front line.

    Why do you need those two spikes under those two bridges? Just for the looks?

    For the teeth and because it may help if they try to catapult people over the creation they will hit he spike. This may happen.

    (For if this is bad this is my first creation that's actually on the forums.)

    I would replace the trapbridge-spike combination with teamdoor-spike combo, mostly to prevent anyone from firing in or tossing a bomb in from the outside.

    Also, this is quite a wood-intensive structure on this map, seeing as all the trees are on the far sides.

    Agreed. :B): Also this downer door can be addicted with 1 bridge-block to make possible open doors and fire without falling, also throwing bombs or building falling-blocks. And it will be better to create spikes on tower's roof, so any cata(bombjump)-flying enemy will get very butthurtX3
    P.S. I like design, if in the game will be attribute "fear", it may inflict it:D

    Like the idea of the jump pad. And it is actually quite extendable, which is very convienient is you want to place a catapult on the top. On the other hand, I agree with Jim_Dale. The trap bridge is a bomb explosion or an arrow kill just waiting to happen.

    Not bad but..

    -Archer's movement is highly restricted inside it, because hostile archers might shot you from below
    -Bomb jumpers could land on the roof
    -It costs 530 wood and 520~ stone (implying you didn't fill the right side of the mountain with stone blocks to make it vertical and not considering the workshops)
    -Takes a lot of time to be built

    1.It does not take to long especially if you have multiple builders working on it.
    2.You can slo make this out of wood blocks because it's cheaper.
    3.You can put spikes on the roof so when they land on it they get hurt and you have knights all around.
    4. not to long.

    I did this in like 2 mins. was not hard.

    1. Builders can't telepatically know what do you want to build (trust me, organized building never work as you expect)
    2. True (Implying there are wooden blocks in all the servers)
    3. True, but knights would still survive and you can't build spikes in the upper doors.
    4. You made it on admin mode (Didn't need to gather resources, travel, etc.)

    Note that a single trip from the spawn to the mountain and back to the spawn takes about a minute or more. It's impossible to build that in 2 mins if you had to chop down trees, mine, dig, walk, etc.

    1. You can always take down what they build and make it like this.
    2. Yep. :)
    3. Yep :)

    Well it took 2 minutes for me because I was on Sand Box if I was on multi-player it would take 4 or 5 minutes depending on how fast you are.

    I would never recommend taking down what others have built, because it can look really bad if someone sees you tearing down a tower that your team has made. Even if you're trying to explain that you're improving it.

    But still it's a nice building. :)

    I love this building, The only thing I would change is I would put backwall under the over hang just in case you get mutiple bomb attacks and It could fall.
