    Please follow the conditions set in the puzzle. Also, 32m is too high. edstark presented with 20m upkeep. For comparison, I can present a 15m hourly burn (300k ballis + abatis) and I would still end up with over 50k ballis after all the hits. While some may disagree because of impracticality, that is a better solution than those that were presented here already. Yeah, a player with mostly mechs (minus a significant amount of rams and scouts) will have trouble defending because the attacker can just use archers+trans waves with timed SBs. But that is not the point of this puzzle. And I'm not saying that is my solution either. You just need to go lower than 15m. Lower than 14m.

    Thanks for trying. And keep on trying.

    I was gonna say 1 each foot troop down to ballis + 200k rams and 45k pults, 5k defense with the intel hero

    BUT then i saw Jeff had like 4-5 of the smaller mech waves...

    So i stick to the same set up, but add 800k rams lol

    1 worker/warr/pike/sword/cav/cata/arch/scout/balli
    45k pults
    1m rams
    intel hero and ..idk 16k ATs the rest abatis (5k)

    This is my very crude answer

    Any particular reason your going with pure pults over pure balls considering the puzzle is that of low upkeep?

    Furthermore, any particular reason for the 16k ATs or the 1 of each unit? I think you have the highest upkeep response in the thread.

    the 45k pults just seemed to get the lowest ram loss. No real point to the layers, just throwing them out there.. more ballis are just going to get eaten so why not lose the 1 after wave 1

    I didnt go through and calc all of it, just assumed 1m rams was enought to survive.

    His puzzles just end up making me mad lol, so im not typing much more here, or on calc than i have to.

    Oh and the walls can be anything, assuming that many waves wont spam down 5ks... eff make it 20k abatis, a 5k is a 5k for the sake of this theory :P

    That is where your wrong. Walls make a big difference.

    1m rams is far far too many.

    Requiring 800k rams is just too many. I will never make a puzzle needing that kind of solution as it's not really practical and no longer require finesse and brilliancy.

    Are we supposed to win against the scoutings from the 1k attack hero as well?

    No need. Objective is to win against all attacks only with the least possible troops in terms of upkeep.

    Read it. Though the solution you submitted is technically incorrect, I do think that you essentially got it right. Just need to refine a small mistake that led to that failure.

    Edit: Sorry. I made it appear like your answer was a mistake. Your answer is correct though another unit will be better. My apologies. COngrats!
