No need to get rude! I immediately agree with you that being able to put a castle in every province is nothing that should be prohibited at all! Actually when I proposed a "move and strom" command myself, it was in another thread with the topic about diversifying the castle types and making other castle types more interesting.

On making castle types more worthwhile, what if the building process was altered, so that after every turn of the build, the province gets a fort with a fraction of its final capabilities.
For example: after the first turn of building a fortified city, the province would get a "stage one fortified city", which would have one fifth the stats of the finished product: 10 admin, 100 supply and 20 defence. I would suggest that the 100% increase in resources only be available to the finished version of the fort.
This would change things quite a lot, and I imagine that the forts would need to be repriced.
If an attacker was to capture an unfinished fort, he would be able to continue construction at no extra price.
