Depends how you define "reasonable". Potentially, every province on the map could have a castle on it, but that would probably be virtually impossible without purposely trying to do that. Reasonably I couldn't see it getting much higher than 50%.

The fact is that Norfleet is right about castles.
They're the lone way to defend a province.

If there's no castle many spells can burn your temple.
Armies can do that too, since PD isn't worthing it's cost above 10 or 15 ... and 10 or 15 means a very weak army composed of the worst of your troops.

Six people have claimed nations here, but only two have submitted passwords to the registrar. So at the moment, we have but two players.

I think I will have to drop out of this one. I already have 2 games going and my job has is asking too much from me at the moment, so one more game would be too much.

Sorry guys, maybe next time.

I'll submit mine when I have designed my pretender. No worries, I won't bail out on you. But could we use another map if we're so few? Urgaia, e.g.

Well I believe we can design out pretender when map is choosen, we've to mail only the password.

That's my point.
