Editing Castle

{{Towns}}

'''Castle''' is a good [[alignment]] [[town]] with the [[knight]] and [[cleric]] [[hero class]]es. Castle armies are primarily composed of human men-at-arms, though these towns have also formed an alliance with the [[griffin]]s and are under the protection of [[angel]]s. With two types of [[ranged attack]] units and two [[flying]] creature types available, Castle-based armies are well equipped to quickly engage and defeat their enemies. Castle represents [[Erathia]].

=== Cons ===

* Second most expensive town, [[Tower]] being the most. Hard to obtain the required 6 gems/week, without a pond or Tower town with a [[Resource Silo]] providing them.

* The 6th level dwelling ([[Training Grounds]]) is hard to build, as it requires 30 {{W}}.

* Most of non-upgraded units are significantly weaker than the theri upgraded counterparts; upgrading them takes time and resources.

* Magic, [[Mage Guild]] is limited to level 4.
