Draw a line between their “home bases”. Then make a line perpendicular to that. The intersection is where the fights will occur.

one more point, the line should bisect the other line.

I don’t think that is what they mean.

I’m thinking they mean this:
Make the two home bases “points”. Draw a line of any length that intersects the two points. place a point on the line exactly between the two points on the line. Draw another line that intersects the first line at that new point and is perpendicular to the first line.

The intersection of the two lines is, in essence, the spot halfway between the two home bases, though you don’t need the second line to find this. The third point identifies it.
