(and with a turret it's also magnificient defense for those pesky dt's.. not reccommended for lurkers.)
Ok and then I read Heartcutters "battlereport"(I guess it was a report since it got a decent rating) and decided that since he is using depots "wisely?", then I may also implement this using the other races.
Upon early experiments with zerg, I found that their supply unit (the overlord) didn't really help anything as far as defense goes..(unless you want to make it harder for your opponents to focus fire your troops by placing mass amounts of overlords over your men, but that's not a great idea eiter). So aside from building your hydralisk den infront of a sunken to divert oncoming lings/zealots there's really not much you can do with zerg structures. (I'm probably wrong)
Ahh then it hit me.. of course those pylons.. Lovable easy to build and you gotta build lots of them anyways for the mad supply that toss needs to exist, so why not build them clumpled up to help vs an early rush or a drop..
Ok so then I proceeded to sit here and think (so how am I going to pull this off). And it dawns on me.. I'll just read Heartcutter's report again.
(Later that day)
I have been reading this report all day and I can't remember how many times now that I have looked and pondered the greatness of the depoting all your tanks in to get them stuck.. And yes Reavers for tanks, and a cannon for the turret.. Aww that's a great idea, cannons are way better than turrets because they do normal damage and also hit ground units.
So I proceed to set it up (there's pictures at the bottom). Hmm well how would one counter this as terran.. well I considered it, and yes lets see if a drop is effecitive(nope).
But the city build does have it's flaws when it comes down to well.. losing everything.
Oh well off to start another idea to hopefully "help" the starcraft community in some fashion. | | Battle Shots! |  This sure beats a wall in!!!!
 Bunkerless defense for Toss WORKS DAMNIT!!!!
 Not effective vs nuke rushers: BEWARE!
