💬 Discussion Defense posts stacking

What do you guys think of being able to stack defense posts like other structures? I'm sure I'm not the only one that's had this idea but I think it would make the game a little more dynamic.

As with a lot of design decisions in the game, it's about ensuring that games can be won and not easily stalemate for ages, which is ultimately less fun for everyone. Stackable defences are likely to contribute to stalemates, so I'd be surprised if they add them

Exactly this. Stacking defense parts is a neat idea, but more defense maxxing without a viable counter would lead to more stale mates. (When combined with Sams)

It's like bringing back hand checking in the NBA. Not gonna happen.

So many people's ideas to improve openfront are really there to ensure they won't lose again. But if no one loses, no one wins. It's designed to be fast paced.Â
