Yes, we all agree about these points and the usefulness of the square. The point was that the square should be changed to a citadel or something similar, or at least include some other spots where the last stand takes place (so some settlements have a square, others a citadel and so on).
I also said that last stands wouldn't happen every time an assault happened. I wanted a surrender option as well, which would be linked to the Med II prisoner options, allowing the surendees a chance to survive and walk away.
