Hello! My friend - You all know him as NickFury666 - showed me this game and I have to say i'm absolutely a fan and I have some creative and amazing ideas for things, and I wanted to join you all here, So I was thinking, "What could be a good first post?" Well, I decided to show my first base.    As you can see, They kept trying to drop units off but my AA unit took care of that.

Whoops. I put it in the wrong section.

Pretty nice, but when designing you should keep in mind the pathfinding the AI uses. With this design, those 2 dreadnoughts are basically useless because the AI will go through the top opening, since there is no door there. But with a little tweaking this base would be thoroughly awesome. Good job :3 |

Welcome. That's a pretty cool base. Shame about the section thing, but don't worry about that too much. Try reading some of the stickied posts to help you with confusions like that. Enjoy your time on the forums. |

Thanks, I was at the right section earlier, but then I closed my browser and all I saw when I first came here was "General Discussion" because I wasn't focusing, so I clicked that one! Hahahaha... Also, I have an interesting idea for a base if the AI works that way.. |

Here's how my bases are looking these days. Usually bunkered up on both sides, with a ground entrance and a hanger. I am quite partial to concrete spikes. All pieces I use are available in vanilla bunker modules, vanilla tutorial bunker pieces, and vanilla bunker bitz. Only feature mod I use is for doors of different orientations but im only using one of those here. Takes me about 20 mins to set up. I put overhangs above the hangar door to keep enemies from dropping onto the doors from above. Careful flying of a good ship makes this setup easy to deliver weapons and reinforcements to your base, as well as relatively safe. The map is Trade Center, with Crobots for my actors and weapons. I also am using a weapon or two from the DarKlones mod and the DarkStorm mod. I use turrets from the Pelian mod up near the hanger to keep it clear of clones. Not to mention, activities mods so there's no wreckage and lots of soft squishy things to shoot with high powered weaponry =D As you can see, the possibilities of CC are pretty vast. Base building is a thing to be cherished, almost as much as head-exploding. |

There is a reason why it's called Crobo ( def : (v), To pwn ) . |

<3 Seriously though man you're a lot more creative than me. Most people are when it comes to making bases. I just take the brain, put it at the bottom, dump a couple of actors at the entrance, and blockade it with ♥♥♥♥. |

And that's what I thought what first meant. |

Those subsequent bases are awesome. Have you checked out some of the bunker module packs? They might give you some extra tools with which to work your craft. BTW, if you do those in the scene editor and save them, you can post them for others' enjoyment as well. |

I just made a base in skirmish so epic I wished I saved it.  Okay, it isn't "epic" But it's damn good for a beginner and I really like it. It's going to work out pretty well. I just know it!   I'm so creative. Think of when I start doing some crazy stuff like that guy a few posts above me.
