[NvPinder]

One thing that's always shitted me is how god awful some people's (even top top players) simcities are. Half of them simply just dont make any sense at all and are really not hard. So, I've taken the 100% absolute best (because I said so) simcities on the 3 best forge FE maps in the map pool and posted up a guide on how to do them

Notes about this guide:

• In none of the walls (except tal'darim, where it's unavoidable) is the pylon vulnerable, only the higher hp buildings are vulnerable.

• In all simcities the 1 cannon covers all your buildings from lings

• The gateway i have not placed, but am trying to build over the top of the simcities, completely wall off the wall (for example, vs early pools, you may need to build 2 gates to fully wall yourself to allow time for the cannon to get up), the actual build positioning shown is a 1-hex gap which a zealot blocks. Hopefully this makes sense when you look at the pictures themself

• I've included a small guide of how to place the pylon without ******* it up in each one, since thats the easiest thing to **** up with these sim cities

Placing the pylon:
You want to place the pylon as close to, but without touching the edge of the highground, there is only 1 perfect sweetspot for this for each position, too close and you will block the spot where you put your cybercore, too far and you wont be able to build the forge/gate hugging the wall.

Placing the pylon: Very similar to shakurus logic, you want your pylon radius as close to the cliffs, without actually touching them.

Placing the pylon
This is the easiest map to fuckup the pylon placement. You basically want to imagine your forge going here:

With the edge of the forge 1hex overlap with the 'corner' of the yellow build grid like that, it should not be tucked into the gap, just touching the edge of the corner with 1-hex overlap.

The pylon then wants to have its whole side (2 hexes touching) the other corner of the forge, as shown here and in the other sim cities:

As i said higher, this pylon will actually end up be SLIGHTLY vulnerable (i think one ling can hit it, which means banes CAN hit it), you want to take extra care vs bane busts on this map, and want to build your second pylon behind your wall to prevent roach all-ins sniping your vulnerable pylon and dragging you to frown town.

So enjoy, and please just copy these and stop me from wanting to rip my eyeballs out whenever I watch your streams.
