What Mellarrkk Academy says about this base

Overview

This guide teaches you how to build external TCs properly. External TCs protect your main base and let you reclaim after raids.

Key Features

  • Build externals before investing in your main base
  • Disconnect external TC from main base with one or two pieces
  • Use metal upgrades if you only have two externals (more protection)
  • Honeycomb externals only if you have few of them
  • Place wall frames from gates to raise building privilege
  • Add wind turbines on gates to block raider TC placement
  • Include storage (barrels, boxes) for backup loot inside externals

Build Details

See video for full build cost.

Creator's Notes

  • Every player needs externals to survive raids
  • Build strategy starts with externals, then expand inward
  • Number of externals matters more than main base wall thickness
  • Never let raiders place TC inside your base or on high pillars
  • Externals let you stay mentally strong after losses
  • Can hide resources in externals so you don't care if main TC dies

Best For

Solo and small team players who want raid insurance without heavy resource investment.
