How To Defeat The Hordes
Alright guys. This strategy is super simple, and will work forever. You won't really have to repair anything, or do all that much after the initial work is done. The strategy that I have found that works the best is.... a hole. No, really. All you have to do is dig a hole through the floor of your base. If you don't want to bother with walls and the like, and have a secure upstairs, this is the way to go. Once you dig the hole, sit above where it is during the horde. The zombies will hit the ground underneath you in the whole, and dig it deeper until they can't get out. This makes it easy to go down in the morning and pick them off at your leisure. This only works perfectly for the beginning hordes though, so be careful during the later ones, as the cops can still shoot you with the goo.

Not if you pretty much stay in one spot during the night. But they will widen the hole some. Not enough to worry about for a while though. Once it widens too much for your liking, just fill in some of the hole with dirt to narrow it up a bit. You could add high level log spikes to the walls to help with that as well

Yeah. There are cop zombies, and when they see you they shoot a green goo at you. It destroys base level wood frames instantly, so be careful with that. It's best to kill them from a distance.

Pretty new to the game, only SP none gen map atm (Naza something? ) Just 40ish hours atm. This is what The Walking Dead games should had been imho.

What's the comment about the cops shooting? Is that a zombie type?

Good tip Jynx, thanks

For the ones that like to teeter on the edge of the drop, there's a trick. Make the next to last frame a ramp frame, the last frame should be a wedge tip frame, they can't hang on/spam jump on those. Check out Rongo the Bold's video to figure out how deep to go..

When they start to dig, all they do is make the hole deeper. The morning after, just check that they haven't made any ramps out and you're golden. All you have to do is replace the walls where they busted in on the bottom floor

And when the zombies start to dig?
