Mountain Citadel vs. Dark Citadel

OK, a dumb question: what are "letters?"

*Dies laughing.*

Here's a hint: there are seven of them in "letters."

That's the one. Can be pretty fun for Miasma Ctis.

Ya... good old LUCKY thirteen. Thats alway treated me real well! [cough]

Six is closer to 7, which is defined quite literally as being pretty damn good... as far numbers go at least.

Mountain is equally close BTW

Yes they're difficult to storm, but with cost 750 and 5 turns to build you can have very few of them compared to other castles type, and won't give you many money and resources as other castles.

In that case, the fort of choice is the "Citadel", with exactly 7 letters. I expect to see you using this more!
