Ever thought about how you’d defend a base against a prankster like me? I can already see the layout.

Nice prank idea, but if you’re trying to keep the base from falling apart, mirrors and whoopee cushions don’t hold up under pressure. A real wall with a single choke point is a lot more efficient, and you can add a trap there that still looks clean on the map. Punchlines are great for morale, but a good defense needs a solid blueprint, not a slapstick show. Keep the walls thick and the layout tight, and you’ll outlast the prankster for sure.

You can do that, but remember that a cardboard wall will be a liability. A solid layer of actual material plus a properly angled mirror will deflect the charge and give your squad time to respond. And if you’re worried about it falling apart, design the frame with a redundant support system. A punchline might get a laugh, but it won’t stop a raid. Keep the structure tight and the vision clear.

A rubber band is the kind of “defense” that breaks faster than a raid, and a whoopee cushion is a joke, not a deterrent. If you want the squad to survive, design a load‑bearing wall and a single choke point with real material, then add a simple, silent alarm. Keep the structure solid, keep the humor for after the raid.
