Kind of wierd idea: Province defense buildings

If this were done it could be coupled with a general revamping of the PD - there are some instances where the vanilla PD is a bit weird or could do with changing. Abysia EA PD getting humanbred etc.

I think it's very doable and could be good,.. the problem is with the mod commands we have you would end up replacing some extra units in current PDs in order to put the towers in. For instance if you wanted towers at a rate of 1 per 10 points of PD, you'd have to replace PD unit 1a or 1b.

if you do something like 1 per 10 points of PD is it possible with only 1a or 1b to give upgraded units as PD increases?

From what I'm reading it seems you'll just get more of the 1/10 pd units.

Gonna go see if I can find that previous post on PD.

Well I didn't find anything in the old posts related to adding a new 1C or 2C. I guess you could do something along the lines of a 1/5 small tower per PD at 1b (and adjust 1a to cover the other in #'s) and a 1/5 (or 1/10) at 2b

Going off Sombre's post regarding:

"You can change the PD for nations very easily. You can determine this much;

The type of leader unit they get for everything > 1 PD
The type of unit A and number they get per 10 points > 1 PD
The type of unit B and number they get per 10 points > 1 PD

The type of bonus leader they get once they have > 19 PD
The type and number of troop C they get per 10 points > 19 PD
The type and number of troop D they get per 10 points > 19

PD is very easy to mod and you can reference any unit numbers you want, so mod units are just as easy to have in PD as vanilla ones."

You could easily add ONE medium and ONE high-level tower to the PD, by replacing the commanders. For most nations, the towers would be more useful than the commanders, even though low-level mages are a bit more common as the PD 20+ commander.

They might be more useful, but I'd be sad to see the commanders replaced entirely.

What about a commander *inside* of a tower? (E.g., mark the tower as a commander.) I presume you'd be sad about replacing the commanders in case all the genuine army commanders get killed. If you're sad because you like the flavor of e.g. a Bandar Commander in the field this won't help.
