The Layout

Guard Towers are good when placed on hills and cliffs as it makes it twice as high and strong. Lots of towers in a line with Firewarriors in can easily blast enemy followers especially the enemy Shaman.

Camping

Camping can be done with towers. It is when you are keeping your Shaman in a high tower and killing the attacks but not attacking them. Although people don't like it as it brings no fun or is boring it can save your life but you must attack at some point or you will finally get broken into by your enemy.
