The Amazing Archer Tower!!!

I think constructor is possibly my favorite class on the whole server. :D I was playing on a very slow battle of Minas Tirith last night, and the fight got stuck on the third gate. So, after I had build pretty much all the barricades there were to build behind the gate, I started to mess around. And this is what happened:

This thing was 5x5 blocks, and I would guess around 20 blocks high, I don't know, I didn't count. It featured a stair/ladder pathway up through one of the 1x2 arrow holes, and had a fancy x-pattern for a roof. (I would have made a solid roof with a dome, but the silly "no pillaring up" rule kept me from doing that, even though it wasn't even close to pillaring. :dizzy: ) It gave the occupant a full 360 view near the third flag, and could probably have fit four archers comfortably. This awesome tower was indestructible! It withstood two sieges, in which I was the only defender and I successfully held out long enough for my Gondor buddies to come and clear out the riff-raff that thought they could mess with my tower.

Here's me weathering an attack.

In the first siege I just got in the back of the tower and waited it out by replacing the wooden blocks that the Mordors broke. But in the second siege, I actually shot the pesky orcs as they tried to attack me. :p Unfortunately, there were many evil mages that liked to repeatedly shoot the tower with their cursed fireballs, which made rebuilding a pain, but it always bounced back.

And here's Gondor having a unite party in the tower!

Overall, it was late last night, and the battle was quite boring, but this archer tower made it fun again. :D I like the constructor class, and I think the server should promote it. Maybe there should be a donator constructor class, like an advanced constructor that also has ladders and different colors of wood and some better armor and maybe even stair-steps. Vote for this post if you like the contructor class too, and let me know what you think about the donator constructor!
 
Epic tower, I wanna make one. And a donor constructor class would rock. Signs, slabs, multi coloured would, ladders, stairs, loads of that stuff, all restockable. That would be epic!
 
I would love to see a way to give Constructors points for their builds, as playing constructor class only helps the team, not yourself. I'm gonna look into this...
 
I can tell you, the lag on the game end is based on the amount of blocks to remove.
For now it's map radius*total blocks
Total blocks are 2 types of wood + ladders so 3

If we'd add 3 new constructor blocks, this would double the lag.
 
*few more seconds*

*laughs*


In Minas Tirith the lag is already like 30 seconds, making it a minute would cause players to leave or maybe even the server to crash.
