Defense Buildings
Defensive buildings have zero upkeep and never need to be updated because they all increase your defensive points. The only limit to the amount of buildings used to defend an attack is the Storm8 cap of 32767 per building and they never become obsolete. Once bought all defense buildings are used to defend off an attack.
Initially, building costs can be high compared to unit cost but unit upkeep and selling to upgrade them makes them more expensive than their initial cost. Defense buildings prove to be more cost effective in the long run.
High defensive units usually cost less with lower upkeep than high attack units. Purchasing these high defensive units can support your defense buildings, allowing time to build your income and defensive buildings.
Getting the right balance of building income and defensive buildings will certainly be justified in the long run. The income growth you gain from utilizing defensive buildings will give you more hourly income to buy better offensive units which have higher upkeep. The main drawback with this defense building, is time, as you need to camp at lower levels while you do your building.
