Default Re: when should you build a new fortress?

It also depends on whether or not your national units that can be built in a second castle are horribly important to you or not.

Other factors are...

1) taking a province that is in a chokepoint location

2) does a province you have taken have a unit important to you that needs more resources for best use

3) did you take a province with MANY connecting provinces

4) is there an ally behind you and needs a turnstyle castle in order to get troops out where they can be of use to both of you
