The problem with walls is this:
When two warring states are
separated by a wall,
you can-
not see
the enemy.
You have no idea
whether you are facing a
thousand troops
or a
single soldier.
Thus, you will have to
utilize your siege
weapons. But there is too
much math
involved. You must
calculate for
probability of placement
of troops,
plus parabolic projectile paths,
which may or may not
hit your target.
Walls leave you blind.
And so they must be broken down.
Without walls,
the battlefield becomes bigger.
And you can see with your
own eyes, whether your
archers' arrows
pierce the heart of the enemy.
