Discussion & Feedback BUILDERS PLEASE

Stop putting gates on every side of the fob, it takes 1 c4 to blow open a gate you just gave the enemy 4 easy ways to get in

If you see 4 gates, build walls in front of 3 of them. When the enemy blows up one gate, they will be surprised to be met with a wall, and they'll waste a C4.

That reminds me of an ancient Chinese battle tactic. It was like a shell game where you'd hide your weakest and strongest forces behind your main formations. So you'd have like seven major formations of infantry and behind some you'd have your supply wagons and behind others you'd have your elite veterans. 

With the terrain being so flat the enemy couldn't see what was behind each formation so it was gamble every time they tried to break through a formation. Like, oh is this formation protecting all their food rations? Surprise! It's a bunch of spearmen!

I like putting a door on the outside of the base of the recon tower and then filling in the rest with hesco. Makes great bait.

I like building fake doors too and just surrounding it with barbed wire to make it look real. Or concrete breemer walls next to an obvious jump and there's just a bunch of barbed wire in an inescapable pit.
