The Castle Doctrine Forums

My house looks very easy, even nooby in the entrance. It is not until they have committed themselves that they see the true nature. I think this is what gets me up over 10k in a matter of hours. After that I have gotten very proficient at turning a profit from the lower middle class. The 3-6k price range. I've found that 1k is usually enough to solve/break those houses when you have a sound knowledge of game mechanics. Plus I keep a close eye on the broken houses. You would be surprised just how often *thousands* of dollars show up in houses that are a simply 6 steps to the vault.

Okay, I agree. Mr Keene, if you are on the forum and would like me to remove this just let me know and I will.

I was going to come in with 18 ladders, 12 explosive, 12 blowtorch, 30 water, 10 meat, 15 brick, 5 wire cutters and 5 crowbars. I was going to head along the main path straight ahead, 9 ladders until I reached the powered door (even though I dug in and knew the solution to the magic dance, I didn't trust the leap of faith, plus he had reset afterwards). I was going to beat down the powered door and have a look behind there. If the vault wasn't there I was going to head back and use explosives through the wall in the middle and take a look where that electric floor was heading. Then wire cutters/explosives/water up the screen until I found the corner. If the vault STILL wasn't there, I knew the only spot it could possibly be was in that scary powered door column. I was going to head back over there and beat it down and take my prize.

Have any nice paintings there?

I think it was a kill or be killed thing for Mr Keene. He knew I had seen almost all there is to see of his map. Not only that, but I had recreated it in full on castledraft, square for square. Would it be poor form if I posted it on here now that he is dead? He saw my wealth rising again and knew he had to take me out or else he would soon fall. I wasn't going to be as nice as you either lol; I was going to take the 30k I stole and invest it entirely in guns to shoot my way down his dog/cat/pit corridor.

Basically I am at a point beyond the endgame. I have 37 paintings and nothing to do in the game except for buying and stealing more of them. I'm just going to keep accumulating them until I piss enough people off that my house becomes a target. It has withstood two separate 50k attempts, neither of which even coming close to the vault. The other was the late Mr Shane Ronald Gipson. He escaped with his life and contributed to me bolstering my defenses and making retreat that much more deadly.

Corridors filled with powered pits, and a ghost dog way out of reach. The only way to make it safe is to switch power sources for the pits before ghost dog kills you. But red herring buttons that kill the power, and simultaneously kill you instantly.

This is a more advanced trap technique, but highly effective.

Coincidentally, it is me. I feel bad now after you helped me out in my other thread. I had about 55k in my vault and was bored because nobody tries to rob those houses, it had literally been 8 hours since someone even peeked their head in and left. I bought it for about 50k so that I could drop back to the range that is frequently attacked.

I chose three paintings at three different prices which is what each column represents.
