So this is my first base design. I know it might not seem like much but it took me about 3 hours to make lol.

Some GOOD things about the base are....
1. Core garrisons.
2. Most buildings are connected to the roads.
3. Strong defense for the selected storages you want protected.
4. Looks very nice as well.
5. Well rounded defense encompassing the center.

Some BAD things about the base.
1. Archer tower is exposed.
2. Only can have 2 main storages protected at a time.
3. Not all buildings are connected to the roads.
4. Semi weak on west side...maybe...

Please tell me what you think and tell me how we can improve on this base design! Im glad if this helps anyone and you find this a useful base!

They can easily take your food and a couple of medals just by starting in southwest side and work their way south east.

I scatter my farms and gold around. I also spread as far as I can to make more difficult. I hate loosing medals so I protect my town....

Remember, this isn't a base for protecting medals, just either gold or food really. thanks for the feedback though!

Interesting layout. That layers give some cover, it´s difficult to defend everything so we do what we can. I´m using something like this.
Going to put a catapult in the middle layer, already making coins for that ! :)

What do u think ?

Hey there! Well if I were you I would put my garrisons inside those walls! Those are the first thing I take out during a battle. Also maybe speard your farms around to the upper west side to give another layer of protection up there. Let me know how it goes.

THIS IS AN ALTERNATIVE BASE DESIGN FROM MY ORIGINAL BASE. THIS WILL GIVE YOU EVEN BETTER STORAGE PROTECTION AND 4 MORE BUILDINGS CONNECTED TO THE ROADS FOR A BETTER BONUS!

Hey there! As a base designer myself, I have a few improvements I would like to offer! First, I would Centralize your Catapult. It is by far the most important defensive piece in Iron Age. Second, I would limit the amount of Gates used in the base, they are weak points that troops target! Lastly, I would also spread your Markets, I support the idea of going "coreless" or spreading your resource buildings around so if they do get to a market, they'll have to go through Hell to get the other one! Not just make a concentrated effort to get into the core and get everything! Thats it. Overall very nice base I would skip over, Great Job!
