Playing offense in Nexon M’s iOS/Android title DomiNations is all well and good. Of course, you’ll want to attack other players and grab as much booty as you could. It’s a lot of fun to beat the enemy and head back to the base with your loot, but it won’t do you any good if you can’t defend your base against the opposition. This isn’t always the easiest thing to do, so for this latest set of DomiNations tips and strategies, we shall talk about the best ways to defend your base from the bad guys.
1. Clear The Forests
This is one of the more important things you need to do to create a good base and keep it well-defended at all times. First of all, you should have a plan in mind when expanding your base, and that plan should ideally include clearing the forests in such a way that you’ll have a square design for your base.
2. Defensive Prowess Depends On The Nation
Each of the seven nations in DomiNations has their own strengths and weaknesses, and Japan happens to be the nation that is strongest on the defensive end. Anyone looking for a head start on defense should always go with the Japanese.
3. Wonders Can Also Influence Defense
Some wonders would be able to help you improve your defense passively, and we would personally recommend the Acropolis as the best defensive building in DomiNations.
4. Base Design – Don’t Go For The Obvious
Now, you may think that it would be a very good idea to surround your Town Center with walls. That may sound like the obvious choice as the best DomiNations strategy for defending your town center, but it isn’t. It would actually be better to leave your Town Center out in the open, which would leave it vulnerable to enemies, but then again, what you should do here is to protect your resources.
5. Pay Attention To Your Walls
Walls are still the classic defensive structure, and when creating your walls to protect your base, you should keep a few things in mind. First would be to build more chambers, which would essentially mean confounding your enemies by forcing them to go through different layers of walls in order to get to your buildings. Second, place your gates in such a way that your defenders can reach your attackers, regardless of the direction they’re marching in. Third, make sure your walls are regularly upgraded. Lastly, place your buildings of great importance inside the walls, and your less important ones outside, to allow those comparatively unimportant buildings to serve as decoys.
6. Smart Building Positioning Is Paramount
There is no real right or wrong answer to the question – what is the best DomiNations best design that would ensure a lot of defensive protection. There actually is none, just as long as your buildings are positioned the right way. An example of this would be placing your Garrisons in the area of effect so that you can get the most out of the bonuses given you by the Acropolis.

I agree for regular multiplayer however for World War you need to put town center in middle and put chambers around those buildings instead.
