Splash Tower

splash towers

Defensive tower type; the only two structures the crawlers finish in Shanty Town before the assault.

Story so far

Splash Towers are one of the tower types the crawlers can raise as part of their fortifications. When Florin orders all teams to positions, Li Jun reports that Shanty Town's defenses are still under construction: two towers built, but that's it — both of them splash towers. Li Na adds that two more should come active in the next twenty minutes.

Their being the only completed structures on that flank underscores how badly the surprise timing has caught the The Princess Posse out, with Imani confirming that nobody is in place and the defenses are unfinished.

Appearance
