User:Type: Sparky/Fortress (Besiege)

Fortresses are huge areas on the Besiege map. They are comprised of multiple Siege Doors, an Outer Rim, some Cornerstones, an Inner Rim, and a Keep, the central objective for both warring teams. Fortresses are a safe haven for lower level players, a strategic vantage point, and the main objective all in one. They are mainly made of grey bricks, with occasional yellow and blue/red and furnishings in some places.

Siege Doors
Siege Doors are huge wooden doors that are the only thing standing between your Keep and the enemy team. They have huge amounts of health and do huge amounts of body damage, but cannot be easily repaired. Once a Door is down, prepare for an invasion, because enemies can start coming in fast.

Tanks can pass through Siege Doors in their Fortress, but not in their enemy's.

Outer Rim
The Outer Rim is composed of many rooms with different functions of all shapes and sizes. They connect Cornerstones, Siege Doors, and the Inner Rim.

Cornerstones
Cornerstones are weird octagonal shaped rooms located at (surprise) the corners of the two Fortresses. The Cornerstones that face towards the zone in between the two Fortresses have Siege Doors on one side. In the center of each Cornerstone is a huge pillar with lots of health and some Missile-shooting Auto Turrets.

Destroying all four Cornerstones will unlock the doors to the Keep.

Inner Rim
The Inner Rim is composed of many rooms with different functions. They typically contain lots of valuables and AI guards. It connects the Outer Rim and the Keep.

Keep
The Keep is a huge room in the center of the Fortress. It contains many AI Guards, treasures, and is guarded by four indestructible Doors that lower when the Cornerstones are all destroyed. The center is a pillar with every type of weapon. If the central pillar is destroyed, the team that destroyed the enemy's pillar takes the Keep and wins the game.

Newly-spawned Tanks spawn in random places in the Keep, and all kinds of Polygons can spawn.

Ramparts
The Ramparts are accessible from stairs in multiple locations. They are, simply put, the ceiling above the main interior of the Fortresses. From the Ramparts, Tanks can snipe other Tanks, but tanks on the Ramparts can't be attacked by Tanks from below. The Ramparts are a strategic point that must be defended.

Strategy

 * Triplet-branch Tanks excel at taking down Siege Doors and Cornerstones, so keep them in the front line of fire.
 * Gunner-branch Tanks excel at taking down enemy Tanks both up close and from afar. They're good for taking out threats to your frontline squad.
 * Tanks like the Smasher-branch and Flank Guard-branch Tanks are good for absorbing enemy fire while being able to return damage. Keep them up front at all times.
 * Destroyer-branch Tanks are good defenders. Place them hiding around corners or at strategic chokepoints that your enemies will always use and then... bam!
 * Said Tanks are also able to trap enemies in a corner and leave them to face an unstoppable bullet.
 * A few ram Destroyers can fool the enemy into thinking they're a bullet Destroyer and then take them by surprise. They can also drive enemies into corners, but may get stuck on walls themselves.
 * Tri-Angle-branch and Sniper-branch Tanks are the support tanks, speedy and able to get to places from a long distance. Use them where your team needs them the most.
 * Other Tanks are to be used where your team lacks Tanks as cover units.
