Forts and Castles what is the point.......

[Tyr]

Forts and Castles what is the point of capturing them? Nothing is gain when taken or nothing is lost when taken away. What if “defenders” of a kingdom received a bonus when fighting within their kingdom? “Invaders” could counteract that bonus by taking the forts and castles. Each fort could represent ¼ of the bonus, the castle could represent 1/3 of the bonus and the final 1/6 of the bonus would remain. This would also give some reason to take (or retaking) the forts and castles other then just pride for ones kingdom (or hatred for the other kingdoms).

This being a game and there is no good way to enforce the real odd necessary to capture a fort or castle (2 to 1). This could add some of that to the game.
