First of all there are 2 topics to this discussion.
1. Forts, how they were used historically.
2. Forts, how YOU use them in your campaigns and why the AI doesnt use them as much.
I played another mod...rise of persia I think, and the AI was using them pretty well. I actually used forts in my Hayasdan campaign to slow down the advance of the Grey Beast, just by giving me 2-3 turns to get my main army to the hot spot. And no, I wouldnt garrison entire armies there lol, that would be a waste :S
Ah, and historically, I know of the fort that Julius Ceasar built around that gallic city, but thats about it as far as I know of forts being used historically, can anyone elaborate/enlighten me as to other uses of them?
