    Well obviously it's not a legit method of killing people. I was expecting at least someone to take that picture seriously, so congratulations Antman. In case you did not know, Xlayer means sarcastic in Japanese.
    The structure I posted there actually takes 2140 stone and can accurately be launched from a catapult. :B):

    Wow guys, it was cleared up that he was being sarcastic :p
    And I was basically a far away as you with my amount, 2500. @ Toast. Dont have a go at me if you can't do any better fool.

    Thanks for being nice about it and informing me Xlayer :) I wasn't actually having a go at you.

    But seriously, someone I don't know necro posts a stupid thing (but yes, sarcasticly, as mentioned)and then another guy says 'this' (who I also don't know) and I corrected it to my knowledge, don't expect me to know everything. :)

    Happy day to you all ;)

    Bare with me cause this is the first tower I've built on here. ignore the space between the top line and the second because I just couldn't get it to go away. It allows for all character types.​
    1. The knight can easily pass up .and down the base​
    2. The ladders prevent the archer from falling and he can poke his head through​
    3. the builder can of course easily drop the structure onto the other team.​
    You can make the tower higher, add more armor to the front part, and even create a roof if you want it. Works great for a team defending the front line. Not to mention it can easily be built again once it drops.​
    Let me know what you think.​

    In my opinion, the best collapse structures are the ones that don't block your own teammates.

    one, we have "empty" icons in the smiley list.
    two, this is the noobiest and worst dropping technique ever,
    three, use the searchbutton. saves everyone twenty guides a day.

    :blank: :door:
    :quarters: :door::castle_bg:
    :castle_wall: :blank::bridge::bridge::bridge:
    :castle_wall:

    Is what i like to use in the pregame time, because you may never need to drop it, and i think this would be a pretty cool archer nest.​

    I would prefere one of these drops'' on the red/blue team.
    The one on the left is great (partly desinged by me :)) If knights rush in they wont take notice the pit so they will die.(left tower)
    The right uses the drop pad,also archers can shoot down,same as left tower.
    Thx

    Instead of using a shop block :quarters:, use a team door.
    It, too, can be destroyed with one hit (while it is open), is less conspicuous looking than a frail shop block, but it is resource-heavy... especially if you make more than one, or keep reconstructing the trap. Though, if you need to reconstruct the trap, it probably means you're under siege. In which case you would just resort back to the cheap shop block traps.

    for the right tower and the three spikes is not good because pro acrhers can get past that by using arrows........and the left side archers can go up there and go up the ladders to your base...

    THis is for miniman


    SO GOOD LUCK FIXING IT

    I was trying to decide how you create a collapsing trap with all that backwall. Turns out, you were past the backwall.

    better one?

    :door::castle_wall::blank::castle_wall::blank::castle_wall::blank::castle_wall::blank::castle_wall:
    :door::door::castle_bg::door::castle_bg::door::castle_bg::door::castle_bg::door:
    :door::door::castle_bg::door::castle_bg::door::castle_bg::door::castle_bg::door:
    :door::castle_wall::door::castle_wall::door::castle_wall::door::castle_wall::door::castle_wall:
    :blank::castle_wall::blank::castle_wall::blank::castle_wall::blank::castle_wall::blank:

    replace every door with a piece of workshopblock.
    you can keep repeating this pattern, to maximize its outcome.
    drop the entire thing if its been entered by enemies

    I love how Strathos' tech is always one step ahead of the forums. By the time y'all have caught on to using workshop pieces, he's moved on to doors. Now you're catching on to doors he has something else all together.

  17. I used doors before him : (.
    Nor sure about door as a block but p sure I was the first one to drop blocks straight from the entrance.

    Doors are actually stupid old and people have been doing that forever.

    Where have you been (it was even on the forums as a way to drop way back when [before Killatron even an admin here yo]) and was simply ignored, cause everyone knew that shit.

    Also workshop pieces were used since they were released, we've been using them to grief since they were out, shit's hella fun.

    You people suck. Rubble is the shit! Because it's fun watching an enemy run into a self triggered trap. Yes there are flaws, but hey, what doesn't have flaws. Also Rubble can be used to collapse things from a tower but It'd probably be hard to do for your general player.

    read the post... the doors are meant to be workshop blocks, used doors because they make so little sense that everyone should instantly think of reading whats directly under the post and see they aren't meant to be doors.

    that kinda defeats the point of a trap,
    you have to collapse somethin to make the enemy collapse something?
    why not just collapse it ont top of that enemy?
