Best Answer

Snipers are not always kept in towers; in fact, for some situations this is a vast disadvantage, as the enemy could easily destroy the tower.

In those cases where a tower is used, this is because:

  • It provides elevation above the surroundings, which increases both range and visibility.
  • Towers are easy to protect from small-arms fire by a comparatively small defensive force.
