Fortresses in the game

I am planning to make every city at least a level 1 fortress, a number will be level 2, with some especially strong cities like Carthage and Syracuse level 3, and I wonder if that could somehow unbalance the game, as in NCP fortresses are not very numerous.

No, this will be fine....just know that each level multiply the defender (100% level 1, 200% level 2, 300% level 3) in case of assault...you can even have levels 4 or 5 if you wish.... :indien:

Level 4 and 5! well, that could be great to force players to set lon sieges, as historically...I will have to do some playtest when I have a playable scenario.
BTW I have noticed that all the fortified cities display the name in the map as Ft. Whatever, is there any way to avoid that? It would be odd to have all the cities named like that, Ft. Carthage, Ft. Roma, etc.

You can have whatever name you wish. We may even distinguish the city name from the fort name in the same city (like you could have "Carthago" for the city and "Carthago Citadel" for the fortifications)... :indien:
