    Wall buff/burst corpse removal

    What if we had it where builder xenos could use burst corpses as a resource to strengthen a wall? like have 1 corpse strengthen 1 wall tile. This could cut down on the massive stack of dead that accumulates over time.

    Good idea dude, but just letting you know that we need corpses for defcon or Intell. If you want to do something with corpses, here's a fun strategy. Pick Carrier, get eggs or facehuggers and drag large xeno corpses over the eggs you planted, when tallhosts come to try and pick it up, you just got yourself a capture

    it's how they are meant to be used

    they're traps, they're supposed to make you offguard and be somewhat hidden

    when you could previously put traps under broken fences (because too hard to spot im guessing), devs changed it so you no longer could

    meaning it's an intended feature to make them under corpses, or other objects, otherwise it would be prevented like broken fences were

    Another idea to deny DEFCON points.

    CABAL writing post about rigging monkeys overall, as an idea, not specifically on first drop.
    Chocolate_bickie: Too long, didn't read XD

    CABAL refering to "Pick Carrier, get eggs or facehuggers and drag large xeno corpses over the eggs you planted, when tallhosts come to try and pick it up, you just got yourself a capture" by stating it's Powergaming.

    The idea is interesting, at the least.

    I personally don't see how putting a corpse into a wall would strengthen it. Is there a need to xenos to have stronger walls?

    On the topic of defcon, would putting a corpse in the wall count as destroying it? Do destroyed/gibbed corpses count for defcon at all? I wouldn't think they would, otherwise a meta queen would just gib all of the corpses. It would be funny to see the Marines hit a lower defcon because some xeno is running around reinforcing walls and "destroying" bodies to do so.
