Ben envisioned a partial rooftop—something that wouldn't block their field of fire but would provide enough cover to shield them from incoming attacks. He needed a balance. If the openings were too small, they'd have blind spots in their defenses. If they were too wide, it would defeat the entire purpose.
He quickly pulled up the creation interface and started drafting a design. The structure would be reinforced Grimslate beams, slightly elevated to allow for angles of attack without limiting visibility. The ballista towers would have overhead plating with slotted gaps, allowing operators to fire while remaining protected. The scout perches on the walls would have uneven, gap-filled barriers, shielding them from enemy fire while maintaining full coverage of the battlefield. 'That should work.'
Ben nodded to himself, satisfied with the reinforcement. He turned, intending to call for Elvira—but then, he stopped mid-step.
