Hi people could anyone tell me how ot change my base. Im quite sure its bad. and also i have started fortifing some buildings. Yard planner:  View of base:  Thanks in advance.

Here the links cause the images arnet working for me so might not for you. Yard planner: [http://imgur.com/MED6D,QZcbt](http://imgur.com/MED6D,QZcbt) Base: [http://imgur.com/MED6D,QZcbt#1](http://imgur.com/MED6D,QZcbt#1)

I suggest a full revamp to the base as it is a boxyard, and they are never a good idea to make. Try using your walls not as walls exactly but as pathing to Silo death traps or away from important buildings like silos, town halls, or Ariel Defense towers.

Dont be stupid. you dont have to make an massive quote pyramid, to bump your base. you actually quoted the same message 4 x, which is no longer a bump but spam. And CnC stands for constructive criticism.

[http://i.imgur.com/vXwlT.jpg](http://i.imgur.com/vXwlT.jpg) My friend asked me for help on his base, and I want a second opinion. So, here you go. P.S. What’s supposed to happen after the creature carnage box pops up? Apparently, it’s saying to “destroy the Brukkarg tribe before it sets roots,” but my friend can’t find a single base to attack.

Apparently, it’s saying to “destroy the Brukkarg tribe before it sets roots,” but my friend can’t find a single base to attack. The base looks good, the only thing I might consider, is stretching the yard ( only a little bit, so the ranges don’t alter too much), so it might go along a bit longer during an attack. And the brukkarg tribe problem, as it sounds to me, is something to ignore to be honest. I mean, you cannot find anything, no base etc, so nothing to worry about it. HOWEVER, I dont have any experience with that problem :/.

So, after I finished my very very lame Eye-ra protection for my very very lame yard, I decided to submit this very very lame yard for you guys to laugh at. (P.S. Sorry for the very very lame picture quality and huge white space, my laptop has a large resolution and MS Paint f\*cked up when I tried to resize it. D’oh.) [](http://imgur.com/GGIPO)

hamuka here is a tip: if you make a screenshot, cut the base, than, post the cut part in a new window. after this, shrink that back to the desired size ( usually the size of the image). creates a good image, and we can always zoom in if needed. * * * Concerning your base, it isn’t that bad for your level. only thing would be, is that I am missing some buildings, and that there is no pathing/ cataproof ADT. also baitable champ, but that is about it. So i dont know about the laughing part, but maybe I am not drunk enough (yet) ;).

No, it’s pretty bad. First of all, you’re protecting relatively useless buildings (Ex. catapult, monster locker) while exposing valuable buildings. (Ex. Silo, ADT) The general order of priority for buildings is: TH and silos \> ADTs \> Bunkers \> Other Towers \> RGs \> Other stuff. If you’re wondering why, it’s that the weaker towers and RGs have loads of health, making them excellent meatshields while the stronger towers fire away. Then, you have your champion sitting close to the edge, meaning that part of the yard is left vulnerable to attack. I’d invest time into creating a cage-centered design. Also, you have zero pathing between anything. You need to force monsters to take as many twists and turns as you can so that attacks are costly, frustrating, and generally not worthwhile. Try creating an SDT or some tower concepts. Refer to Kixeye’s forums for some ideas. Finally, you are missing so many RGs and silos that I question how you were able to afford everything you have so far.

parasect – your adts, rgts and mbs can all be catapulted with a couple of shots without hitting silos but the main problem I see about your base is that there is no pathing….it looks like you have tried to create some interesting pathing, but you must have at least a half a block overlap for a wall to be solid, corners touching or a quarter of a brick overlap act as a gap in the wall, monsters will walk straight through and undo your plans

I didn’t know about the half block thing thanks, this was a very experimental yard, and considering that i accidently forgot to save before i quit the yard editor this yard is pretty much scrapped :P thanks for the info though I will make another yard and post it for critique.

My base was long overdue a redesign. So here’s what I’ve come up with:  Yard planner view:  Any critcism, thoughts, or ideas would be appreciated. :)

Maybe if you put some of the booby traps on the edges of the map if would work greater because when the person attacking flings the monsters in they will have no choice but to walk over them.

Utterly terrible idea… bases are attacked from 360 degrees with each individual attacker choosing their own method. In order for that method to be of any effect all of the booby traps would have to be randomly placed. Not to mention the utter uselessness of booby traps to Daves and the small probably of running into a line of heavies… frankly you need to play this game more, your utter lack of understanding of the point of SDTs are appalling…

Hi guys! Just started the game and I’m a bit lost. Do I need lots of towers to defend?

[This](http://www.kongregate.com/forums/81-backyard-monsters/topics/206313-ultimate-bym-super-guide) guide may be of help to you. Base design is not very important at lower levels, but the more towers that you have in your yard the better. * * * Also, no feedback on my base? Does no one really have any advice at all for me?

Icy, your yard looks fine, the only advice I’d give is the opposite of armyoftwenty – cluster up your mines more, if an attacker is using healers then you need as many of your mines to go off in quick succession as possible, to have a chance of killing high health point monsters before they get healed. If you only use small clusters then it won’t be enough to kill them and they will just get healed before the next cluster

I think I can take down the ADT’s with puttied baltzs. I am not sure though, you should get someone to test it :)

You’re not concerned about those catapultable ADTs?
