distance between towers VS range of infilading weapons
#3
Well, the historians haven't entered anything, and for the most part, we who are not don't like getting our ears pinned back.

Beyond the obvious, that one tower should be in bowshot of the next, what's to say? It's a pretty involved question, for which a factual answer would take considerable research into many different forts and castles spanning at least 2000 years of architectural changes. Probably someone, somewhere, has done such a study.

Just because I'm curious, what prompted the question?
