Starship Troopers: Extermination How to Build Better Walls

Do not build a wall at the very edge of the base. Here’s why:

• You can’t shoot bugs at the base of the wall
• Sentry Guns inside the wall can’t shoot directly down either
• The wall blocks line of sight for everyone else
• A worker bug can kill it
• You look like a smooth brain (even the brain bug wont eat your noggin)

Literally, just build the wall slightly deeper inside the base and cover it with a bunker.

• Build a bunker at the edge of the base
• Build the wall half a square inwards, run the wall as far as it needs to go
• When the bugs attack a single Bastion can defend the entire wall solo
• Feel like a winner
• Virgin bugs walks home in shame

Bonus extras; the short walls add a lot of durability to entire wall. Do not underestimate the power of a buffer zone!

• Add a sentry gun in the middle of the wall. Will kill everything for you
• Build Short Walls 1/4 towards the edge (at the edge works too)
• This creates a buffer zone to delay the bugs from getting to the main wall
• Add any Sensor Beacons or Shock Beacons in front of the short walls
