Buildable walls

After lots of requests for it, Rey finally decided to let us build defensive walls around our base. This way, if your location isn't campy enough, you can make it easier to defend! You will need 2 stones for each wall piece. New tactics will be possible, including building a wall around your enemy's base, his army, or simply below his inn's door.

Personally, I can't wait to play this, my cities have always had a problem producing enough troops. With walls, I will be able to win some games by wasting my entire stone supply to make a few layers of walls and towers. This is awesome :)

Are they going to be destructible?
If they are not, what happens if you accidentally wall yourself in? The game becomes unwinnable for everyone?
If they are, is there going to be a way to destroy them without having to mass warriors for 5+ hours before attacking? Maybe a buildable/deployable trebuchet or a repurposed/scaled up catapult?

What about starvation tactics? One of the strategies for sieges in real life was to starve the sieged city: will it be possible somehow? Guess not, because players are going to wall off choke points outside of their cities, which will keep Farms well defended inside...

And what about dragons? Since today is April's fools' day, we could have dragons too! :P

We've made a deal - walls go to Remake, Dragons go to Knights Province ;-)
