Default Re: Question: Defense Dilemma

Don't get me wrong - I didn't try to argue against the usefulness of castle spamming. I agree that it solves the strategic problem perfectly BUT...

it breaks down the resource/production focus that (I believe) forts are designed for. Effectively with castle spamming I would be reduced to building like 2-4 units in every province and then running around to collect them all into a central location. I simply *will not* spend the majority of my turn time micromanaging my troops like that.

As the game stands now it is fun (wack-a-mole syndrome aside), but if I have to MM my troops every turn I know that my desire to play will evaporate quickly.
