Futuristic Tower ideas

by Gravitysuitguy » Mon Nov 14, 2016 1:45 am

For the last couple of days, I've had the idea of designing some more futuristic towers.
I mean, after all, it doesn't seem like that much of a stretch considering all of the alien technology strewn about Linirea.
Besides, lasers are cool!


~Servant Bot Workshop~
level 4 barracks

Description: The lovechild of Alien technology and Dwarven ingenuity, the servant bots are ready for orders.

Appearance: The tower is a square factory, with a blast door entrance and sun panels on the roof.
The Servant bots are floating and painted to have tuxedos and mustaches. They hold a tray with a drink on it, which they use to hit enemies with when engaged.

"'Ello, old bean."





~Laser Gunslingers~
level 4 archers


Description: Adept and adaptable, the Laser Gunslingers are notorious for taking over alien crafts and using the technology for their own designs.

Appearance: The tower is a crashed alien UFO with two headset wearing soldiers looking out of the portholes.

~Bard Crib~
level 4 mage

*Edit 1: The Servant bots have been rewired to be completely different drones.

*Edit 2: The Star Seers decided to keep their elder nap going a little bit longer, and are instead replaced by the Bards and their sick cribs!

Cool ideas! Amazing names as well :)

Few notes:
The Servant bots are OP with 9 bots it can keep up to 4 enemies blocked for ever, as well as on death dealing 80 TRUE damage!
This can hold a lane by itself, because the tower does splash damage which deals with swarms of enemies as well as holding the boss/mini-boss indefinitely.

Star Seer seem generic but balanced

Watch D.O.G. Station is a well balanced, great tower!

Anyway, my take:
-Cool ideas
-Stun Beam could be OP if spammed
-Plasma Beam basically makes them deal true damage. Perhaps lesser armor ignore or make it a cd ability?
-Spotlight Special and Laser Show seem a little strong
-WatchDOG seems cool
KRA is now complete.
