WARDOGS: How to build a fob

Steam Community guide by cheekbuster 2-5.

cool disclaimer that you should read

some parts of this guide may become obsolete due to this game's meta changing faster than red team throwing a match after being the first team to hit 90 points as more people start unlocking higher level ♥♥♥♥ and new methods of all sorts of ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ being found (looking at you floating roofs). also depends on if i can be bothered enough to update it (half of this entire ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ guide needs to be redone and it took like 5 days just to update the c-ram section)
also close the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ doors when you leave the fob

fob location

you dont always need to build your fob by a tower, you can put it anywhere the terrain gives you an advantage of some sort. just dont place it in the middle of an open field located at ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ nowhere on the edge of the cz, you will get ♥♥♥♥ on by an endless mortar barrage.
also stop putting fobs at the church on ozempic, that location is complete and utter poo poo stinky ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ thats a nightmare to defend and is also aids for logi players to get to without getting shot to kingdom come

do not do this

i understand that the concept of big things not fitting into small spaces is a foreign concept to most of you guys but for the love of god do not put doors in front of big ass oil tanks

do not do this part 2 electric boogaloo

if you do this you will inevitably get shot by an enemy through the little asscrack and die

put a plug in that ♥♥♥♥

dont do this part 3

i dont know what the builder of this fob was smoking but i do know that you should not do this
(yes my dumbass tried salvaging this, no it did not work)

CLOSE THE ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ DOOR ON YOUR WAY OUT

pwetty pwease :3

for valkyra players

when building a mega fob at tower 4 on bukkake bukarani you need to build things like mortars, drill rigs, and air defenses other than only building a giant ♥♥♥♥ off wall

especially mortars, if you dont build them then you will probably get fingerblasted by manticore mortars and have no way to counterbattery their ♥♥♥♥
i originally made this section kind of as a joke since everytime i would deliver supplies to tower 4 on bukarani there would be a decent chance i'd open the door and it would be a barren ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ wasteland devoid of any emplacements but as of writing its been about 6/7 (hee hee six sevennnn) days since launch and valkyra players, are we deadass right now. 9/10 times i show up to a fob with supplies, its getting shelled to kingdom ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ come by both the enemy teams (even blue has managed to figure out how to build mortars, get your ♥♥♥♥ together reds), everyone is running around like a 8 year old autistic kid who just got banned on their favourite minecraft server for saying the ♥♥♥♥ word, and no one apparently is capable of building atleast a single mortar and firing back. stop getting spitroasted by both of the enemy teams like a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ pornstar and BUILD SOME ♥♥♥♥ (pwetty pwease :3)

anti air

build it if you want but just know the second that a team hits 20 points, some soy ass havoc pilot is gonna show up and blow up your ♥♥♥♥ anyways since the c-ram no longer molests havocs in .2 seconds
as for the sam the vast majority of helis that you shoot down are probably some dude trying out flying for the first time and the targets that do matter (rocket ah-6/havoc) fly low enough that you cant shoot em
currently the one and only effective method to counter helis is to channel the spirit of Jamsheed within you

drill placement

if your fob is at a tower then its best to put your drills behind towers at an angle that ♥♥♥♥ blocks enemy mortars from hitting it

if your fob isnt at a tower then you pray to god that the other 2 teams are too busy slugging out it instead of going all bukkake on your drill(s) with mortar shells
*note: once people start getting the self propelled howitzer this will become less effective as they can arc their shots so their shells go over the tower and down onto the drill
*note 2: this also kinda depends on enemy mortar placement, if they are firing at the lowest arc this has the highest chance of working. if they are firing at the highest arc then why tf havent you gone to just shoot the enemies, they're on your ♥♥♥♥♥♥ doorstep

drill placement part 2 electric boogaloo

space out your drills around the fob to make that one lonestar player who built a mortar fob miles away from the control zone have to work a bit harder to take out your drills because ♥♥♥♥ that guy ╭∩╮( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)╭∩╮

build a great wall to keep the illegals snipers out (but also probably the illegals)

in certain areas if there is a hill near your fob a lonestar player will materialize out of thin air and start sniping you and that is no bueno. by extending the hesco wall by putting another 4x2 on top of the already existing 4x2 you will (probably) block their line of sight into your fob because ♥♥♥♥ that guy ╭∩╮( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)╭∩╮

it also helps prevent enemies from using terrain/map objects or driving their spawn vehicle up to your wall and using it to climb over the wall
bremmers also cover the same height when placed on top of a 1x1 hesco but im a lazy ♥♥♥♥ so i just use the 4x2 hesco walls. plus since hesco walls are weaker, when the enemies blow up the wall your fob is now a target rich environment full of juiced enemies with a ton of that goop on them

door

if your fob is at a tower you should probably put doors in the tower for when that one manticore player with a double barrel shotgun inevitably slips into your fob because some dumbass left the door open again (close the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ D O O R S)

spawn vehicle molestation prevention

put the spawn vehicles under towers or build 2 indirect fire shelters next to eachother and clear out the middle hescos to protect your apc from getting ganked by enemy mortars and drones

unpack the pallets

not really a building tip but unpack the pallets, it gives you 720 quid, support xp, and 1800 supplies for the fob. us logi players die a little inside every time yall leave the pallet there for for eons

blame stan

if enemies get in your fob always blame stan

thank you for listening to my tedtalk

congratulations, your fobs are slightly less ballsack now
