I don’t really know where or what to call this because this personally (Did a round against this with a spitter runner and drone) feels cheap because they can just hide behind the walls and pop out and grab you. let alone it looks like dragons teeth. It’s one thing if there was a wall line or something but it was built like this on purporse up to the FOB

Honestly, only great for catching isolated targets with capping castes. Against the full Marine force, IFF fire from M56D’s and Smartgunners will cut down one wall (or the thirty RFN with knives) and expose a shitload of precious cover. Not super defensible for anything but small numbers.

Put some doors on it and it’s going to be a choke point to be reckoned with

Not very useful setup. These ‘dragons teeth’ style layouts are unironically ass because they give minimal cover and allow you to be shot from a LOT of angles even when marines are only advancing from one direction.
Optimal setup is diagonal 2x2s that allow for 3x3 rooms, but of course in caves since space is limited you’d want to adapt.

Cursed 1x1. A opening should always be 2x wide. Bodyblock is number 1 killer for xenos, not the marines. If there is a xeno blocking one opening you have to move 3 tiles to avoid bodyblock, so its death. If a ot nade or sadar/GL/Pyro get there, you have to zig zag yourself away.. in flames or repeatly in stun from scout/sniper. I seen cursed cades as marines. This is the cursed setup for xenos.
