Build the road
Tap a pad to raise a tower. Archers shoot anything, siege flattens crowds but cannot reach the air, garrisons block the lane, and the arcane goes straight through armour.
Lanternwatch
Nobody has needed the watch-lanterns in thirty years. Something has started walking the road at night. Hold the lane, and keep the light.
The ground matters
Every pad has its own terrain. A clifftop shoots further but will not hold a garrison. A thicket hides a tower until it fires. A ley line only takes the arcane, and burns brighter for it.
Get your hands dirty
Drag your hero to wherever it is going wrong, pull a lane lever to send them into the killzone, and keep a spell in reserve for the wave that goes badly.
