Does it matter? I've never really noticed it...
That is strange though...
They're not always on a hill. Segesta isn't on a hill.
Segesta's on a hillock. Maybe the villagers couldn't afford a full-sized hill! ~D
Historically, people discovered that unnice barbarian horde people can't jump and/or fly 2 stories under normal non-trebuchet related circumstances so therefore have to climb. Climbing up a wall usually means siege ladders. Siege ladders need a good footing. The angle of a high hill is not condusive to heavy loads IE 10 guys on a siege ladder or people in armor.
Also, It is easier to go from C to D(refer to diagram below) than it is to go from B to A.
A``````````

``B```C __ D
This is because of something I'd like to call the force of downness which pulls things inexplicably in this direction(diagram below).

Good?
Think for a moment. I am seeking a defensible position. I want to be on a hill. What a leap of logic this is.Quote:

Anyway off topic: don't answer to his question anymore, he keep on creating new thread for everyone of his question without even think for himself first.
Doubt it. All of the theory I have eve read regarding positioning of settlements (and I have read a lot, doing a degree in urban geography) says that it's down to defensive position among other non-natural disaster things. Sure in flood prone areas maybe, but in general I don't think that entered the equation.
"Anyway off topic: don't answer to his question anymore, he keep on creating new thread for everyone of his question without even think for himself first."
Good god..here we go again... :dizzy2:
As clayton's question has been answerd, i think that a mod should close this before it becomes another debate on if he is spaming or not.

Does this affect the gameplay in even the minutest way? NO...
Can't the Mods delete these pointless posts as they appear?
Congratulations Clayton. Warning level 4 now mate. Keep up the good work. Shouldn't be long before the suspention kicks in?
BTW, how many warning levels are there? Do they just accumulate and go towards a ladder type competition, and if so, whats the prize?
Check Watchtower for info on that topic , there is a thread about banning BP.
