which is the best province to box in MOUNTAINS or MOUNTAINS WITH FOREST *xxx*

                  Mountains                    Mountains with forests
 
Cavalry attack                                     -20% < 0%

Archers attack                            +20% > 0%

Defense                                                 +20% < +25%

Fortress                                        +20% = +20%

Population growth                            -20% > -30%

Wood production                            0% < +25%

Iron Production                            +20% = +20%

Stone production                            +20%  = +20%


both are good but for me Mountains are better since your garrisoned Archers will have +20% although you have +5% more on defense of you have Mountains with Forest, but its just 5% it would be best to + damage your archers so more casualties on the attacking force, but this would still be easy to destroy fortress with sufficient ammount of Trebuchet

it's you opinion ... the malus to cavalry applies to both attacker AND defender. And as the attacker has usually more cavalry than the defender and can less afford a long battle (because of the siege next phase), I would say it's much more annoying to him than to the defenders ... add it the defense bonus for the troops (think spears) and I hope you get my point (britney ? *hahaha*)

Boxing 2 provinces, besides your feelings if you enjoy it, has no function at all.

Personally i like more Mountains because it has less penalty for population and +20% for archers, which is important when you defend only with archers in fortress. I don't care about defenders bonus, because it has never helped me to defend myself. There is only a short interval (less then 3-4 weeks) when you need to defend your fort, and in that time you can do that, because other players don't have enough sieges (and properly for that moment +20% archers is important).
For the rest, if you believe your fort will protect you and you don't make army saves, then you are simply dead  *pardon*

reni, the province isn't helpful only if you don't do army saves. If you do army saves, you can use only plains (farmers' way *freak*). But it may happen that someone is attacking you and your army is home or will come before him or you mobilize some army and can ambush him. In these cases the type of province is important. At least for me who likes ambushing so much *hihi* (had 15-16 defensive wins in 4 months realm with online status ). The difference between mountains and mountains with forest is small and is very rarely decisive *pardon*

No, i think you didn't understood me. I said properly that, but i also said that is a moment in the game when you need to defend your fort. This is when you pass 15k points and generally other players don't have enough sieges. This last no more than 3 weeks at all. After that, if you are a warrior you will do constant army saves, so province terrain is not so important.
