I don't know if this has been suggested before but; two things come to mind with the new version.
1) While ireland has increased to 28/29 provinces it isn't really big enough. And before anyone points out it's not the focus of the mod, i'm aware of that. What i'm suggesting is adding forts in ireland to increase the depth of settlement in the island.
2) Is it possible to change the stone fort stratmap and battlemap model so it is the same as the motte and bailey? I think it would certainly suit ireland very well as it could represent either ring forts or anglo-irish motte and baileys.
Let me know what you think?
