I suggest that players should be allowed to purchase as many fort types as they like, using the current system. Add in a selector so you could chosse which will be the capital fort.

When building a fort, let them get a choice from the forms chosen at nation build time. This way if a player wanted more choices, they could get them at the expense of nation points.

For example: If we generating a nation/god I choose fortified city (as capital), wizards tower, and hill fort. This costs 280 nation points (more than enough to balance the advantages). When a character attempts to build a fort, this nation would get the choice of making one of the three forts. That way you could choose between a fast build (WT), best admin (FC) or high defense (HF).

Frankly I've always been surprised that Ilwwinter has stuck with the simplistic one fort theme in such an otherwise complex game.

Why? IW likes it like this. Simple.
