Buildings

Almanac

Buildings

Buildings go on the grid around your Base, and the Base comes first: until it is placed, the build cards say BUILD YOUR BASE FIRST. Most buildings need power: build generators and batteries in reach, or feed a tower yourself (hold F while looking at it). Upgrading the Base raises the level cap for every other building.

Defense

Walls and doors: they block the lanes and take the hits.
