Player/Guild Controlled Castles (Discussion)

Players or guilds can own their own castle / outposts and warring guilds / players can group together in large bands to fight to destroy or take over the castle to gain power. Players / guilds can spend faction or gold on increasing defences, siege weapons, upgrade walls etc. Or the can build from scratch in defendable locations! Owning a castle could increase guild faction / power, storage...

Why this is a good idea

•  Allow guilds / player interaction, own their own outpost which can be developed into a castle!
•  Players can capture outposts then eventually cities in a constant war
•  New equipment and characters i.e engineer, weaponsmith, siege machines
• lives up to the games name "guild wars"

Why it may not work out

•  Similar to existing / other games.
