    I think the most they have in this respect would be Guard Towers.

    This video may or may not include the gaurd tower pic.

    I found this pic but it isnt very good. Kinda far to see the tower in question.

    At this point this is correct. The game will launch with Guard towers and a couple of sizes of house that you can build on plots of land.

    The Guard Towers will come into play later, as they'll be used to protect player owned/run cities and towns. No mention really how this will play into PvP.

    thats cool thanks alot for the info. would like to see something more than guard towers in game hehe,  player/guild owned castles is always a nice feature specially if u plan on playing in a pvp ruleset server, would love to see some kind of sieging/castle building system in game.

    Same here...I think the plan is to have something like that going on, but I don't really want to say it as fact unless I can back it up with links and what not...and I'm having trouble finding it. =/

    But, I will say...I wouldn't be suprised if some of the really big houses later on look like castles =P

    As far as the future, the Dev's have talked about Guild-Owned Strongholds, but no plans have ever been mentioned about them.

    I'll start my own SWG... with Black Jack... and Hookers!!!

    In fact, forget the SWG!!!!

    By strongholds do you mean more like guild towns or something. Thats what I thought the extent of guild owned areas would be. Which is fine by me that seems to be a very rewarding way to implment player politics and turf wars possibly.

    I believe they said "Castle-Like Strongholds", but I doubt they would be large. Probably a Stone Building you add to a Player Town that is a Protection point, adds abilities to the Town & provides Guild members a Special Gathering space. Who really knows, they didn't get into specifics, I believe they were just showing some Forthought to the community.

    Personally, I'd like to see them add the ability to place Stone Walls around a Player Town, that would be pretty sweet.

    If they are allowing towers, I could forsee walls. It would be silly if they didn't

    These "Guard Towers" have been said to serve as "Outposts" which means they will serve as bind points where you can choose to spawn at when you die.

    They will be nice to use outside or near to tough dungeons.

    I'll try and find the link sometime in the future when I don't have so many things to do. In the meantime, yes check out the official forums and use their search engine.
