I can see smart monkeys using bricks and mortars, but it's hard to imagine moose and lions piling rocks

Is there perhaps some kind of difference between "sentient" animals (like monkeys/apes) and just, you know, 'animals', when it comes to defense?

lch could find no evidence of a penalty associated with the animal tag while code diving. It would of course be pretty trivial to check.

Well there it is. Could you argue that that is some kind of bug? That sure, the Monkey nations' troops should be able to defend fortifications, but that other, most likely summoned, animals should not?

Maybe there needs to be two separate animal tags?
