Re: Are castles worth the points?
This has been discussed in quite some detail in the last couple of weeks (if you search for +fortress you will find quite a bit), and there seems to be a large consensus that human players will never choose these forts you list in MP, and for good reason too.
It isn't bad that the Impossible AI can choose some of these, since they never build castles, but of course this is a poor argument overall, since it would be wonderful if they did.
Changing the ways that Forts work is *probably* a major issue in dom3, or at least an issue. Currently, Castle build-time is static and paired with cost. This will probably or possibly be different in dom3.
If you check out the Wishlist of the past 5 pages or so, I think you will run across some good discussions of how this could be improved.
