IoC - Never lose control over your base

[Sparerib]

Hi there,

After doing a few Isle of Conquests I decided to arm one of the cannons on top of the towers. I noticed how the west cannons (Base's point of view) can be directed into a small part of your own base. When aimed correctly you can hit the GY flag, making it nearly impossible for enemies to cap your base.

Here you can see the blue pilar of light, this way it's very easy to aim at the flag.



Move around with the camera for a bit untill you can see the flag.


I've been doing this for two days now, horde will come up only sometimes, if it's melee, you can shoot at your own cannon and kill it, if it's not you're going to have to deal with him yourself.

If this is just common sense, ignore my post, but I have yet to see someone else doing it. And I figured this is not how Blizzard intended it. Also I don't know if this works for Horde aswell.

Actually, the cannons can be turned 360 degrees for a second or so, and then the viewframe locks so that you cant turn them around. So if youre attempting this you gotta look inside the castle quickly with the turret and then you can shoot inside of it.
