Cornfield

[Source]

Cornfield is an Advanced Map in Bloons TD 6. It is one of 4 Advanced Maps to be introduced on initial release, and was one of the first 21 original BTD6 maps introduced on initial release.

Overview

Cornfield is a small patch of farmland enclosed by white picket fencing around the upper and lower borders of the screen. The terrain mainly consists of empty gardening beds with several aesthetic objects scattered among some of the plots such as a wheel, a pair of boots and various stones. At the beginning of each match, all but one of the plots are covered in large crops of corn, some of which bear ears and others not. These crops serve as destructible objects, blocking a lot of the vision for most towers inside. The path is drawn from dirt and there are fences that act as blockers. Every round, the gate is opened at the start and closed at the end of each round.

Including the plot that is available at the start of the game, there are 14 plots in total: one free in the middle, two $350 plots on each end of the latitudinal middle, four $500 plots on each corner of the map, three $700 plots with one under the free plot and the other two above and below the scarecrow plot, three $1000 plots with one above the free plot, one below the largest plot, and one with a scarecrow, and one $1500 plot on the right side being the largest plot on the field.

Summary

The main difficulty is the rather meager amount of starting space the player gets for free, with the larger space requiring more cash to remove. However, if one is skilled enough, one can find many ways to not spend on expansion and beat this map with only the free plot of land given at the start.

Tips

• Ultra-Juggernaut is great on this map if no corn is removed, because the juggernauts can bounce around inside the cornfields.
• The Plots of land are not fully blocked by the obstacles themselves. One can place towers on the crevices on certain locations, allowing more towers to be placed than the map would initially would suggest.
  • Likewise, there are small gaps between the plots of land that projectiles to fly though. This is more evident with the Sniper Monkey, in which there is a gap between the plot of land with the scarecrow and the plot of land beneath it and that allows the Sniper Monkey to shoot on the other of the plot of land.

Trivia

• Players can remove the cornfields on the map for certain amounts of money.
  • This map has the record for individual destructible objects, at 13 plots of corn.
    • It also has the second most money spent on complete removal of all destructible objects, at $9,300.
• When the Corn patch where Scarecrow is placed is removed, the scarecrow laying on ground appears to have sad expression.
• Choosing to destroy any object creates a Monkey Farmer with a scythe, who is purely aesthetic and disappears after the animation is over.
• A normal-sized tower can be placed just to the right of the second bend, a bit above the third bend, and to the left of the fifth bend.
• It is possible to beat this map on C.H.I.M.P.S. with only 2 towers. User Tooprood88 completed Cornfield 2TC with Sauda and Wizard Lord Phoenix. This was achieved in Version 28.3, thanks to significant buffs to Wizard Lord Phoenix.
  • Before this combo, TremenMusic completed Cornfield C.H.I.M.P.S with only Quincy, Permanent Brew and Apache Prime on Version 13.1.
  • Prior to 11.0, it was possible to do a 3 towers C.H.I.M.P.S combo in Obyn Greenfoot, Apache Prime and Homeland Defense but Obyn's price was nerfed making it impossible to beat Cornfield C.H.I.M.P.S with 3 towers until 13.1 as above.
• According to Ninja Kiwi's 8th December 2023 blog, the corn in Cornfield that is harvested will be sent to factories into food and products.
