Every Tower's Job
Every tower has one job it does better than any other, and a second thing it is good at. Know the job and you know where it goes.
No tower matches. Try another word.

Putting a team together Cover the three kinds of trouble: something for crowds, something for armour and something that hits flyers. See Armour, shields and flyers .
Control towers do little damage themselves. Their job is to give your damage towers more time or better targets: a Cold Snap in front of your big guns, a Gravity Well next to your splash.
A Support Station is only as good as the towers it reaches. Put it beside your strongest ones.
Not every tower is open at the start: many are unlocked with research.

Every tower has a job. Mine is to walk. I am very good at it.
