Er - name me a fort that can be built in a single turn. Even the watchtower and mausoleum take two turns (as can the wizard tower, but that's presumably assisted by magic).

Yes, but that's building the entire fort from scratch. Presumably, you'd only need to destroy the front half to get in.

I've studied medieval warfare, sieging et al : they did _not_ only damage the gates.

This isn't an argument about medieval warfare. I *KNOW* about the kind of indiscriminate destruction inflicted by lobbing large rocks with only a modest amount of aim at something. In Dom2, however, at the time of storming, it is clear that the fort walls are mostly intact. It'd be cool if there *WAS* some added wall deformation and holes blown through the thing, but apparently, there isn't. Look to that in Dominions 3, with all new castle-sieging action.
