Build a Better Base (Revision 109)
It has come to my attention that many are asking how the Pros make epic bases. Guides are definitely lurking in every corner of the forums but sometimes to a newbie it can still be confusing how to put those pieces in order. With this guide I’ll present piece by piece what you need to know and understand in building bases. Each essential concept will be explained and coupled with an actual base being created step by step using the concepts.
To start it off, there are two types of bases according to purpose:
1. Short-Term Bases
These bases are made in relation to the current player’s level, number of max buildings to be created and the kind of attacks one is getting at the current state. The design of this type changes/develops as the player levels.
2. Long-Term Bases
These bases are designed at an early level however the designer plans ahead of time where to put additional buildings (i.e. bunkers) or blocks or even traps without changing much the basic design once those are achieved in the late levels.
Depending on your preference and amount of time you spend for the game, it’s your choice which one you will go with. The advantage of making short-term bases is that it is dynamic and it adapts well in relation to base effectiveness in attacks appropriate to the player’s level. With long-term bases, it won’t be stressful to redesign the base that much and is a benefit to those who have lesser game time with BYM.
Bases come in a variety of shapes starting with a simple box, pine cones, and circle-shaped ones. Imagination is the key here in creating epic bases. You may even get inspiration from nature itself. As what Steve Jobs wrote in his quote, “ Design is just not what it looks and feels like but design as well is how it works.” Clearly, how your base design can withstand certain attacks is valued more compared to how it looks. Of course, if you make it look great and works well then that by definition is considered to be epic as well. ^_^. Higher player level is not a requirement in creating good bases. Even a base with level 5 TH and 150 blocks can be epic if done right. So to help out fellow new comers of the game, I designed this guide to be both informative and practical with an actual base being created from scratch.
Before starting to create your base, make sure to put these into consideration:
- Will I be making a short-term or long-term base?
- What level is my TH? And what buildings (including towers and RGs) do I currently have?
- How many blocks can I use for pathing?
- Do I have yard planner and monster baiter created already?
- How much yard space do I have?
- Depending on how long I spend time in building my base, do I need damage protection or not while in the process?
Lets now begin building that epic base!
