Contested Territory/Strategies

This page contains strategies and tips for Contested Territory.

Strategies

 * Plan for the late game. Use Banana Farms, and use Monkey Villages. Remember that 5 2/0 farms give $1950 per round, so they will give $39000 after 20 rounds. Subtracting the money spent on the farms, and adding the amount earned from selling, the net gain is a huge $36,300.
 * But players are still advised to include multiple Banana Research Facilities in their defense set-ups. (This is the best way to gain Max Temples and level 36-40 cities can have up to 6 of them)
 * If the terrain forbids the use of farms, use Supply Drops with High Energy Beacon.
 * As of 14/10/14, you can also use Bloon Traps, which is much cheaper than Supply Drops in-game
 * Don't be scared of losing a few lives, or even all but one life. The Spike Factory + Farm strategy is useful for good income. Although early rushes will hurt you, they won't end your game, and the money in the late game more than makes up for it.
 * Remeber, CT is the freeplay mode of Monkey City and as always, the 2 only ways to end freeplay mode are to quit or lose all lives.
 * Watch out for DDTs. They first appear on rounds 30-33, with lots more later on. Some even appear at the beginning of certain rounds and will try to rush you in large numbers. If you must, use the Monkey Boost for the first set.
 * Don't be afraid to use Bloonstones. A well-timed Monkey Boost costs 5, but winning the territory gives you 50.
 * Collect your money if you hold it. Contested Territories are a very good source of income because they don't have a maximum capacity, unlike Banana Farms (in your city). They also give faster income than farms.
 * If you lose control of the CT to either the bloons or another player, all city cash that were in stock beforehand will be lost, so players should collect it frequently if they are competing against worthy opponents.
