I never had an event build a fortress where no magic site exists within the province.

It happens quite a bit.

I must have terrible luck then... I've only acquired a castle-type from magic sites.

In "King of the Hill 2" an absolutly "offial game" with emor
turmoil 3 and unfortune 2 i got 1 province (with necromancers) in the "world" phytium and in the next the was a hillfortress suddenly in the same pro :-)

And so i had a very VERY strong outpost there. That was Uberluck²

[NTJedi]

Out of curiousity... what does the event say which gives the Fortress ??
maybe because I only play at Luck_1 is why I don't see this event.

It probably needs either Order or Production, too.

One says that a local Baron has built a fortress to protect him from the peasants who areacting agressively, other says building of a ring wall around the city has finally been completed (Fortified City!), and there might be third event too.

I can vouch for that. Some luck you had there.
Caused me to divert effort from the hill

There are just two events that can spawn a fortress:

A local lord has built a fortress to defend his lands from revolting peasants.

The construction of a new ring wall defending a major city is completed. People from near and far are gathering to seek comfort and commerce in the city. Tax revenues have been permanently increased by 20 pounds of gold.

Lacking Excel on this computer I can not check which sites that spawn a fortress when detected or how common they are.

Yeah the fortified city event is usually nice, but I got it once in a province adjacent to my home city and another major building fortress (both are not adjacent to each other) which cut down my available resource quit heavily...

...then again, it was later in the game and I did not need much resources anymore. I do not recall the actual scales, but given that it was in strong dominion, it must have been Order+3, Sloth+3, Growth+3, Cold+3, Luck+1 (or +2?), Magic+3 (Caelum). So Production is definitely not necessary for this event to happen. However, I cannot recall the actual luck score...
