Adds some base defense and can be upgraded to add more.

Upgrades only provide additional defence if there is enough water in the well to power them. If you don't have enough water for your current level the turrets will fall back to level 0 (60 defense), not to the level that you can afford. E.g. you have Water Turrets level 5 but only 4 water in the well, then the Water Turrets will not fall back to level 2 that you can afford, but it will work as level 0 instead.

Please note that daily upgrades are applied before determining if the Water Turrets work or not. Examples:

  • If you have Water Turrets level 4 and you have voted to upgrade it to level 5 with 9 rations in the well, then the Water Turrets will not be level 4 during the attack but level 5. Because you have insufficient water for that, it will fall back to level 0 (60 defense).
  • If you have Water Turrets level 5 with no water in the well and you have voted for a Pump upgrade that will give 20 water rations then the water is added to the well before the attack. Then the Water Turrets will function at level 5 (giving 300 defense) and consume 12 water rations so you will have only 8 water rations the next day.

Blurb

This revolutionary defensive device fires powerful jets of water vapor into the ranks of zombies approaching our walls. With some additional adjustments, this will be an exceptionally powerful defence!

Depends on

Level Reward

Level 2 Increases Defense from Water Turrets from 108 to 156,
but consumes 4 rations of water from the well every day.
Level 3 Increases Defense from Water Turrets from 156 to 204,
but consumes 6 rations of water from the well every day.
Level 4 Increases Defense from Water Turrets from 204 to 252,
but consumes 9 rations of water from the well every day.
