I realise the "buildings" generally represent a set of institutions and the mechanic of troops appearing "inside" a town is part of the engine. I do like the idea of a player having some loyal followers they can rally even if the province capital is beseiged.
Actually, I imagine that marshalling fields would be where troops would congregate when called to war. I don't think you could walk through a village and inspire some local villagers to fight for you. It's no M&B.
