Re: when should you build a new fortress?
You should build a second fortress as soon as possible, so you can recruit another mage per turn if nothing else.
The 3rd/4th and even 5th should be built as quickly as possible too, for exactly the same reason.
After that, I personally just place my forts to defend strategic locations and very important gem sites only. I prefer to capture fortresses from my opponents from then on.
