Creator's Notes Kredbic emphasizes upgrading the front door path first so peeks never fall. Always upgrade the middle module. Stone breaks before sheet metal, forcing raiders to decide if continuing is worth it. The triangle frame floors are key—use them strategically for better visibility angles. You can drop down through container roofs while enemies can't climb up.
Best For Early wipe players who need quick raid defense without heavy resource commitment.
