If someone is on the other side of a wall they can't really shoot through the wall. Of course after you get so far behind a wall the arc of the arrows/projectiles will allow the projectiles to hit their target. Perhaps if a unit is directly next to a wall they cannot attack the other side of the wall or be attacked. I don't know if this is easily done but its food for thought. |

If this were done, consider that troops in a castle would have to be exempt, wouldn't they? Or only ones in towers, perhaps? It gets pretty complicated to see all of the ramifications of such a change. |
