Build Details See video for full build cost.
Creator's Notes Upkeep runs only 1,500 metal for the full external and gate system. External TC lets you keep playing after losing main TC. High building privilege from externals means enemies can't place their own TC. Campfires on roof let you adjust pick-down angles. Metal barricades protect gates inside compound. You can connect gates directly to base instead of building separate externals.
Best For Early wipe survival with easy external defense and respawn options.
