Hey, I was just studying the construction of the Bastion of Rax and couldn't help but notice how the wall thickness and arrow slit placement were designed to optimize defense while keeping the structure lightweight. Have you ever thought about applying those ancient principles to your base designs?

Absolutely, ancient fortifications are a goldmine for structural optimization. I keep a spreadsheet for the Bastion’s wall thickness versus weight ratio and use that same data to size my wall segments. The arrow slits there are basically angled load‑distribution points; I apply that logic to my turret slots so they’re as thin as possible but still allow a full firing arc. Just remember to grid‑lock every wall to keep the stress lines predictable—no loose corners in a squad base.
