Has there been any announcement about features of Dom3 that would affect any of these hotly-debated issues?

1) Watchtower spamming (or "Norfleeting")

I'm not sure if anything has been done in DOM_3. I've recommended adding siege units as one way to address this issue. Siege units may or may not be in DOM_3... and could always be added via a MOD later. I've also recommended in the wishlist thread that some specific terrain should prevent castle building such as 'swamp' and 'mountain peaks'(new). I recall reading a suggestion from someone else for a strong water spell to also destroy fortifications.

One of the best suggestions I can recommend is that each player has a limit for how many fortifications they can build depending on the provinces. Example 1 castle type can be built or casted via spell for every 5 provinces on the map... this will result in players building more strategically preventing mass castling. Ideally this should be an adjustable variable before the start of each game.
