I do agree with the need for Dorwinrim cavalry, as a mercantile nation would need escorts for caravans and light-armed foot soldiers just wouldn't get the job done against a nation like the Khaganate, which would seem to be focused on mounted infantry or charioteers. On the subject of Dorwinion forts, I am with Warpig and Ithilion. Dorwinrim castles would only exist with their villages and cities, while smaller mobile camps are more effective at protecting seasonal crops. Could they be rarer and spawn with groups of dorwinion houses then?
