14 teslas, 7 turrets, (one on top beam across from 2nd DC, added after pic) 2 DCs, 3 Teles (added one to the row along the back wall after pic)

bottom teslas are arranged so they cannot be sniped from outside the room and if anything gets to the first one they all fire, drops a tyrant in 1.79 seconds, i timed it.

now besides the obvious fact that if that first tesla goes theres the possibility that a expert eniper could pounce and snipe out all 3 teles but he would still be getting hit by numerous teslas and both forward turrets once he clears the edge of the wall.

could swap out 2 teslas for turrets to cover that ledge.

just lead wall that front door and get some decent coverage of the stairway, this might just survive with repairs.

any comments?

Since it's built using more than the standard 100 build points, I deem this base obsolete for reviewing.

260 bp, its a SST build.

doubt i could setup that room for defense on a standard server

Theres no trivial flaws, but theres the need of tons of BP. With SD the lower "tesla cluster" is snipable, ..but anithing with SD is snipable, that is not a real flaw.

How this base will be killed?

SD, 3 turrets will be tag sniped. A few smart dretch will enter and eat brains on teles. Chaos and a few noobs will use lucy to defend. A goon will snipe armory or a smart mara will be able to kill it (once 4 turrets are killed).

Also turrets that way need always to rotate. A smart granger will put eggs on both entrances, so dretchs will come from both ways. Stasis, Cataclaw or other SGA guys will eat this base for lunch if a bunch of noobs are defending. But any base will be killed If noobs are defending.

with this populated that top ledge is going to be a big ole meatshield against eniping and im sure they will be laying it on to that door think and heavy the etire time.

SST loves unaimed lucy spam.

From what I see.... it is possible a marauder could make it up in the rafters and take out the defcomp.. Teslas are the only thing that really screw me up as a mara because they mess with where you go, but if you can manage to wall jump and avoid the stairs, survive the turrets with speed, and get on top of the def comp... chomp chomp... come on up the stairs guys...
Ofcourse this might not work like this.. but its what i would try to do..

you might get that one but you wont get the second one.

and swap one lower tesla for a DC and then theres a third.
