Haha that's exactly what happened, a turn before a Huge battle the AI build a watchower Lol

weeeeell i have no complains abt that...from what i've seen the AI tends to build watchtowers on hills, pockets of land that go deep into your territory etc... one thing i have thought is it would be nice to be able to scrap those watchtowers for some money once you've conquered a region ... get some mnai instead of a tower in a place where you don't actually need one

Not to mention, when AI places them in crucial chokepoints where you would usually builds forts...

Yeah I hate that, although it's nice sometimes when you can see the watchtower on the battlemap

I've never seen the AI build a fort myself, with rtw.exe or alx.exe. do they ever make them?

I wonder if this is linked with the changing of fort costs to 0 Mnai. I can't remember if they were ever built in vanilla, so it could be to do with something weird in the AI.
