Okay chaps, there has been some demand for fortifications.

There is however no rules of them. I have rules for the use of them (aka all your burgs are fortified automatically) and for temporary fortifications in the form of wooden forts and encampents build by your men.

So lets do a short tally:

Should we continue with either:

a) Fiating Fortifications (aka i come up with stuff on the spot and hope it somehow fits into the game)

or

b) the original idea that only cities and temporary fortifications are a thing (which would mean there is no necessity to build them...)


On another note, your countries start at maximum prosperity...it can't be raised further so taking economic actions the first turn, is pointless... I do apologize for all the restrictions, i will try and keep things clearer in the future ^^

A
Being able to fortify certain important areas and chokepoints will make for far more interesting wars in my opinion. Means an attacker has to be more creative and a defender has to make important decisions regarding which areas they want to fortify, something I personally think will be far more fun than what is already in place. Also means there's choices to make about rushing defences before they're finished or preparing for war yourself and all that.

Basically, the game will have more tactics and strategy, which I personally see as a major plus.

I'm happy you taking an ad hoc approach, but I'll go along with whatever people want to do. Ideally something that doesn't make it harder for you to process a turn.

Also, if fortification is a thing, make sure it's balanced. Otherwise the game will devolve into people turtling behind max level forts. That makes for a boring game.

Though it is historically accurate for the period field battles became rarer in the late medieval period though it might be much to start with that is something to be expected further into the game.

General Consensus has been reached i feel...so fortifications are in...they will be costly and will cost you maintenance, in exchange you gain good strongpoints. Unfortunately i cannot properly mark them on the map without some major fuckery so yeah...you have to go to the documents...or ask me ^^

Info in Regards to Fortifications:

the Total sum displayed in your sheet merely means what needs to be paid for it to be finished, once the sum has been paid construction can finish. Partial Fortifications can also be used, depending on the state to more or less effect.

I'm dropping out of the game, as I cannot for the life of me think of any actions whatsoever to perform in the game.
