Backstory
The farm’s archer has a very simple routine: stand at the edge of the field, nock an arrow, aim for a very long time, fire once, and check the sky for lunchtime. The routine has never once been broken. The archer’s arrows, meanwhile, have broken many things — because the archer may be distracted, but the bow is not.
Long-range single shots. That is the whole doctrine. One arrow, one very precise line across the whole field, from a position so far back that the flock has usually forgotten it exists by the time the arrow lands. Cheap to build at 25 eggs, patient by nature, and entirely reliable — except for the rate of fire, which is slow for a very good reason: the archer keeps missing their lunch break.
Every missed lunch break is an arrow that did not get fired. The farm’s accountants have calculated that the archer has missed 1,847 lunch breaks and fired 1,847 arrows, and that the correlation is neither coincidence nor acceptable. The archer disagrees. The archer is very far away. The flock, it should be noted, does not share the accountants’ concerns — the flock has a very healthy respect for a bow that shoots further than it can run.
What it’s good at
Cheap, long range — one careful shot from across the field.
Weakness
Slow rate of fire
Power-ups & upgrade paths
📈 Perks that boost it
Armour Piercing Rounds, Rapid Fire
🔱 SUPER fusion
Eight of this defence fuse into one SUPER unit — x10 damage and double lifetime. Only one SUPER on the board at a time; extra sets feed it to power it up.
🔧 Upgrades & buffs
Hover a tower and press U for +25 seconds of lifetime per level. Overclock boosts all damage and fire rate by 50% for 25 seconds, and when the door drops below 15% HP every tower fires 25% faster. Press H for buff mode — towers beside a SUPER boost it 5% each.
Durability
💥 Smash hits
7 hits before it falls apart. 7 smash hits and the archer finally takes that lunch break.
🍗 Who smashes it
Demolition Drumsticks take 50–75% of a structure’s max HP per swing, and Heavy Metal Chickens and Bureaucrat Elites knock things down too.
☢️ Friendly fire
Your own Nuke and explosive chain reactions don’t care whose side it’s on — keep fragile towers out of the blast radius.
