or better question:how many players have built this watch tower?i think you can count the watch towers built using the fingers of your hands...or just one hand.depends:).the WT is too expensive for most of the w26 players in this moment:)

It takes 500 farm space and a lot of ressource.I think I will build mine in like a week to test how it's working,but right now I don't think it's very useful for the early stages of the world.

Please let us know of your feedback as the world moves on and the watchtowers are built. As this is a new building we would really like the community feedback.

Will give my opinion on it once I construct mine and test it a few times for sure.

So far,from what I know,I think it's a building very effective late game,making fakes less effective if you build your watch towers in good map positions.
Early game,I find it kinda useless as before nobles you should just dodge pretty much anything and consume res.And from 5-10 villages it starts to become more useful.I'm not sure how big the range of the watch tower is,but if it gets to at least 20 fields,I'd say it's a decent building,very helpful in the end,but,like the church,it should be an optional setting.

All or most of the information on the watch tower should be listed in the Wiki.

I am not on this world and yet to have used it but I think it will be more of a mid-late game tool. I personally don't see myself even building one when/if I joined a world with them till 7-10 villages anytime before that it is pretty rare to get anything over 10-15 attacks at once unless a whole tribe is trying to take you out. 10-15 attacks is worth tagging instead of wasting farm space building a watch tower.

I am also good at spotting fakes and real incomings with using simple statistics of where his train is going, how big he is and realistically how many nukes he would have vs how many incomings hes got and what villages they are heading to. So early world I would find them pretty useless personally. Late world I think they could be the best update TW has ever done when it comes to saving the players time and life haha.

:mad: Because if you want to upgrade the watchtower you need to let your resources build up that means you cant upgrade or recruit any troops cause that takes from your resources. :mad:

All building upgrades take from your resources in order to upgrade. :)

You asked for feedback,the guy told you how he feels about the watchtower.You need res for it.He is correct :D

Now that some time passed I am starting to think the watchtower is more useless early game than I thought.
You can easily spot noble trains and among the "fakes" in front of the train, some are always real.
So even without watchtower,you still need to stack if you don't want to snipe.

The only good purpose of the watchtower is to see if the train is split in 4 equal attacks or if you can easily snipe the last 3 nobles.
But for a building to be able to only help you in this one single way,I'd say the watchtower is a building that should not exist in future worlds.
The church ruins the offensive play style, but it's effective defensively,very effective.I'm not saying I like churches,I hate them,but they are optional even though they actually do something useful,which is why I think the watchtower shouldn't even be optional,it should be removed.

wt is not cool.i had built one on ro.i was expecting to tag my attacks immediately,but i was wrong.it only tags attack when enters in that circle.so,if you will havve an attack from 25 hours and a lvl 1 WT,the attack will be tagged with 30 minutes before its arrival.so,it sucks:)))

Yea.... Thats why you upgrade it. Duh why make it so easy

Its very useful once expanded and spaced properly among several frontline villages.

Fakes no longer work. Quick snipes & smart defensive troops movement are two bonuses to the watch tower if you use it right.
