Blue has to go on one of the 3 marked fields. However, d6 can't be any better than 35, so it's enough to look at e5 and g6. Let's have a look at g6 first:

4 is now connected to the bottom and to the left in a similar way as in [[Tom's move]]. (Just the piece on g3 is connected to the left in a slightly different way.)

Red 2 is connected to the left by two non-overlapping ways and to the bottom by a 5th row template that has yet to be added to this wiki.

The template

(From the little golem forum)

Even though the diagram shows two pieces and one of them on the sixth row, it makes sense to say this is a fifth row template with one stone, as the stone on the sixth row plays no role whatsoever in connecting to the bottom. It could be removed and the stone on the fifth row will still be connected to the bottom. It is only shown so there is a possibility to connect to the top too, as without that it would not be of much use in a practical sense.

(Note: As I am writing this I have only seen the claim of this being a valid template on the little golem thread. I have not checked it yet and also not if it is minimal. However, as this came from a very competent player I have no reson to doubt it.)

Defense against intrusions

Red has 3 main threads:

1

using the ziggurat,

1

using III-1-b and

1

using IV-1-d.

For a blocking attempt, Blue has to play on the overlap:
