But that those litte barricades are so "not extreme" makes them weird in my eyes. I can imagine some powerful wizard to summon a bunch of demons or earth spirits whatever to build some enormous citadel for him.
But I dont think that a mage of some self-esteem would even bother to "summon" some field barricades.

Also I don't think it would really work with the current games mechanics.
You cant make barricades that stop only elephants but not infantry or thugs. Would be kind of nice for archer nations though.

I'd much more like to see pikemen being able to repel them or deal damage if they're trampled.
