Why can't forts/castles/what-have-you have multiple entrance points?
No I don't mean small back doors for stealth types, I mean full blown gates?
Do I care if it fits the most common architectural design from our history? No. I care if it lets me play a game and have fun.
If WAR made those one gated forts have 3 gates then not everyone would be huddled around one puny little entrance in an AoE caster's wet dream. This would split both the attacking and defending groups considerably.
Now, there's the issue of the fort commander or whatever. Why not make THREE objectives within the fort that must be taken in order for a successful capture? But then the zerg would go from 1 to 2 to 3, right? Wait, there's even more! What if those THREE objectives had to be taken AND HELD within a certain time limit? Oh noes!! Now the intruders MUST seperate raid groups into three forces in order to successfully complete the fortress capture!!
I just came up with it on the spot, but I like this idea.
