| + | ==Analysis== | ||
| + | Sandbags and barricades are, in most respects, identical. The material affects the building's health, but not its defensive properties. Sandbags are generally faster to create, making them better in an offensive operation. Barrciades are slightly more beautiful, but require more work to make, so are marginally better at permanent defenses. Just remember that [[raiders]] will use cover to the same effect, so deconstruct unneeded buildings when you can. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Either building can be combined with [[wall]]s for more cover. Walls provide superior cover, but a full wall will block line of fire. Having a wall with a 1-2 tile gap of barricades will give more cover than simply using barricades, while still allowing pawns to fire through. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Other than their use for cover, sandbags and barricades can be used in [[killbox]]es. Enemies that funnel in from a hallway will normally use a wall's corner or side for cover. But as pawns can't fire while on a sandbag, they will be forced into the box itself. They will also slow down pawns. | ||
