Description
Unlike the Air Tower and Gun Tower, the Watch Tower has no Phalanx Wall Turrets.
Standing five stories tall, the Watch Tower is the tallest of all 3 Tower types. VS MAX Units must use both their regular jump and their jump jet special ability at the same time to reach the roof directly, though it is still rare to find a VS MAX Unit at the top of a Watch Tower given level surrounding terrain.
As is the case with all Towers, the Spawn Room in Watch Towers include two Spawn tubes , three Equipment Terminals, and two banks of Lockers.
Special Capability
Watch towers have a sensor array on the roof, making them capable of sensing enemy presence, which will display on the Tactical Overlay.
