Are you arguing that we cannot ever add better walls?

without an option to upgrade the lower tier of walls, yes.

Disagree with that, fam. You can build a new wall around your base.

Thanks. Is the speed of this type of pali-bashing affected by strength?

It does not (necessarily) imply pali-bashing; it just means that you don't have to wait for 24 hours for your siege machines to become usable.

Presumably yes. As it was possible last world, I don't see any particular reason to not be able to.

I was unaware that you had allowed people to build within 6 tiles of water now. How very gracious of you

Kinda dumb you guys are doing this right now, and potentially screwing over a lot of village designs that have been built. Should at least give us a way to upgrade our palisades into brickwalls to deal with the renovations people will likely need to do.

Changes seem like an improvement over last world at least. Hard to say really without testing.

To be honest, some level of planning for future upgrades is to no small extent on your own conscience.
